iPhone: An Abundance of Opportunity
The Iphone has completely changed the game for many individuals and businesses around the world. People who claim that it is just a phone, have not looked into all the fine details and business opportunities that the device offers. The phones breakthrough innovations are led by a window that reflects back into an abundance of opportunity and technology.
The History of the Touch Masterpiece
When the first generation iPhone came out it was missing something very important. That something was the possibility that developers could use it as a portal to create great applications, which users could enjoy.
Luckily, only a few months after its release into the wild, the iPhone was gifted with an app store that continues to grow. There are two sides to the app store: the user side and developer side.
How Users Interact
Imagine you are walking the streets of Las Vegas with a group of friends. It has been a long day and you want to get something to eat. But, you do not just want anything to eat. You are only in the city for a few days and you want to eat where Sinatra used to back in the good ole days. You want an "experience" not just a meal. So you whip out your iPhone and open the Yelp app, one of hundreds of apps that help rate local restaurants and businesses. You find a place called the Golden Steer and the 5 star reviews are clear in pointing out that the rat pack has definitely sat in the same leather seats that you are about to sit in. With the help of your phone, and a great review portal, you have just created an experience that you and your friends will never forget.
This is just one example of literally millions of scenarios. The categorization and usability of the apps on the iPhone created a surge that has spread to other devices like tablets and other operating systems.
Developers, Developers, Developers
No, I'm not Steve Ballmer writing in secret. But, it really is all about the developers. The app store has created thousands of jobs and now has created a place for companies to advertise in creative ways. This is only made possible because of the brilliant developers inside apple and around the world. Developers make applications like Yelp possible and continue to evolve the free market that is the app store.
It's not all sunshine and rainbows, to quote rocky, because there are certain restrictions. For example the iPhone does not allow flash so developers at Skyfire created a browser that can interpret flash in real time. In development there will always be roadblocks but it just forces us to be more creative, as it does for every aspect of life.
When you write and submit an app you are not only providing value to other people but you are keeping 70% for yourself. So you want to write an app? Learn cocoa touch (Objective-C), get a mac and most importantly an idea and you are set!
iPhone Accessories
Every cool electronic product always brings new accessories to the market. Once a product shape is final, companies that major in accessories begin to have some creative fun. It's gotten to the point where you can take you iPhone in the Gym with ease, connect you iPhone with your car to make a jukebox, and even creative ways to stay warm while using the iPhone. A whole range of touch screen gloves have entered the market because the iPhone has a capacitive touch screen which does not work with normal gloves. This is huge, whether you are walking through the wintery streets of Manhattan or shoveling the snow out of your driveway in Michigan. There are also a few cases that have hit the mainstream market that are labeled "Indestructible" because you can run your iPhone over with a car and it will not break.
It is ideas like these that really shape the accessory market. The best thing about accessories is they will never stop coming. As people find different uses for their phone they will demand certain products that will help them along the way.
It's not "Just a Phone"
The iPhone, as you can already tell, is not just a phone. It is a job creation machine and a device that allows brilliant minds to share knowledge to millions of users. Why am I just talking about the iPhone and not other devices? The reason is the iPhone was in the spot first and it continues to dominate with creative, non spammy, apps. It is what all other future Android and RIM products strive to be.
