Mossberg's Early iPhone Impressions
Walt Mossberg picked up his review iPhone yesterday according to The Chronicle of Higher Education.
During a speech, Mossberg pulled the phone from his pocket:
"I dont know whether Ill give it a good review or not," he said, noting that he will use the phone for the next couple of weeks before writing his review. "I can already see some things I dont like about it. I see some other things that I do like a lot about it."
He felt that the key aspect of it was whether or not the iPhone's touch screen keyboard would be an adequate replacement for traditional keypads. His first impression is that "it works a little better than I thought, but Im still not sure it works as well as a regular keyboard -- and the first hour is not a very fair test, so Im going to keep going at it."
Mossberg's full review will likely come on June 29th, the day the iPhone will be publicly available.
