âThe iPhone makes me mad,â proclaims Peter Svesson (AP Technology Writer). âNot, mind you, at the iPhone itself, but mad at cell-phone manufacturers who have saddled us for years with interfaces that lure us into labyrinths of menus.â Unlike cell phones with buttons that âcan mean âBackâ on one screen, âCancelâ on another, [and] âExitâ on a third,â iPhone âhas one button on its face. It always does the same thing: takes you to the top menu, where icons representing all functions of the phoneâmusic player, Internet browser and moreâare laid out in a clear manner. Wham, youâre out of the labyrinth.â That, Svensson laments, is âthe way it always should have been done.â

Like hundreds of iPhone buyers yesterday, Computerworld's Seth Weintraub was among those who stood outside an Apple Store waiting to buy an iPhone. His conclusion: "It is hard not to justify buying out your current phone contract and making a beeline to the nearest Apple Store" to get one.

âSteve Jobs has said, repeatedly, that this is the best iPod that Apple has ever made, and it is. Itâs also the best phone that anybody has ever made,â says Lev Gossman. âThe user interface,â Grossman marvels, âis crammed with smart little touches â every moment of user interaction has been quietly stage-managed and orchestrated, with such overwhelming attention to detail that when the history of digital interface design is written, whoever managed this project at Apple will be hailed as a Michelangelo, and the iPhone his or her Sistine Chapel.â

Taking us through the highlights of each of the new iPods, David Pogue (New York Times) anoints them âthe best players you can buy.â iPod touch, for example, offers âthe iPhoneâs spectacular widescreen video playback, wireless Wi-Fi Internet features and its now-famous two-finger touchscreen operating system.â And wireless access to iTunes:  âYou can browse or search the catalog, listen to 30-second samples, buy songs for $1 eachâand download them directly to the iPod.â These iPods, Pogue says, âare nearly impossible to beat; there are other 160-gigabyte multimedia players, for example, but theyâre much bigger and more expensive than the iPod classic. And if you do value things like beauty, software elegance and trouble-free computer integrationâwell, good luck resisting that new Nano.â

Dignity restored for $111.87 Analysis Friday was one of life's great days: I returned my iPhone. I was tired of Apple's adult-proof keyboard. I was tired of AT&amp;T's piddling wireless network. But most of all, I was embarrassed that I'd bought the thing in the first place.â¦

Finding it âa significant leap,â Steven Levy (Newsweek) calls  iPhone âa superbly engineered, cleverly designed and imaginatively implemented approach to a problem that no one has cracked to date: merging a phone handset, an Internet navigator and a media player in a package where every component shines, and the features are welcoming rather than foreboding.Â  The iPhone is the rare convergence device where things actually converge.â iPhone, he says, âfinally fulfills the promise of people-friendly palm-top communication and computing.â

Must you wait for Apple Inc.'s iPhone (and shell out $500) to get a device that truly combines communication and music? Other manufacturers say no. I decided to see for myself by asking phone makers to send me the best music player they make for each big cellular carrier.
