iPhone 3G day! But --

iPhone 3G -- today is its most-awaited release day. And yes, just like its emergence last year -- it generated the same fuzz.

Check out the people at Softbank Tokyo at the morning of July 11. As it was reported here in a local news, there were an estimated 1500 people lining up even before the store opened.



I won't deny -- I would love to get my hands on this baby. But, let's just relax for a while and think -- think -- think. Recently on various web-based news sources, they say one thing -- other big players of the mobile phone industry would not just sit around and do nothing and watch this. There is no denying though -- Apple has made a big impact that it is sending a market slice threatening tsunami to these other big players.

This is where we -- the consumers -- need to just relax, keep our hands in our pockets and discern for a moment. If these big players will come out and play (you know they will) -- maybe they can offer a better deal. It won't have that mesmerizing hype as that of Apple's iPhone but maybe, the main features are there -- maybe even more -- and the affordability is there -- won't you think this would be better?

2 cents.
