To make the dimensions of the iPhone look smaller, it seems Apple has hired a big handed model to show off the iPhone.

It WOULD have been clever had they not ruined it by stating: oooooooh, it's sooo small! Bad when they don't trust their own target group to grasp it - pun intended! Bit of subtlety??? [addsig]

I'm less concerned about the hand size than I am with Steve Jobs pulling wild claims of battery life right out of his ass. It's like the auto manufacturers claiming 65 MPG when the truth is in the mid-40's.

Good news if you like YouTube and the Iphone:

Apple has officially announced that the iPhone will support YouTube clips. They can be downloaded to the phone via Wi-Fi or EDGE connection. Dedicated software will be preinstalled.

Reportedly, YouTube has been experiencing conversion of video to H.264 format to achieve higher quality and longer battery life when idle. According to Apple, there will be over 10000 video clips in this format available by the release of the iPhone, June 29, and the iPhone will be the pioneer mobile device that can view them. By this fall YouTube expects to make the whole source available in H.264.

I like both, but have you noticed the battery life, it has a talktime better than an SE (it has about 8 hours) but the standby time of a Samsung (about 240 hours)... but I still want one, wont be able to afford it tho, nd just upgraded to a W880 on an 18 month as well.
