A View From An AdGuy: Good-Bye iPhone

About A View From An Adguy

I wasn't sure I would ever get into this blogging thing... ever. But the time has come and here is the home of my thoughts, advice, references, tales, passion and feelings on advertising and the life involved within.

When I decided this was to be a "new" method or additional "voice" to my teaching, motivating and inspiring for my students and friends, my first thoughts turned immediately to time.

TIME! Something we all value and never seem to have enough of. That will be my guide. TIME. I will use mine wisely and respect yours, making the post relevant and timely.

So welcome. Spend some of your valuable time here hopefully to learn, share, be inspired, and maybe even entertained.

Good-Bye iPhone – Not So Fast

Sony's much-hyped Vaio P Netbook has finally come out from under wraps, weighing less than 1.4 pounds, sitting under an inch thick, and packing in an 8-inch screen with a 2.08:1 aspect ratio (1600x768!)

The netbook also has Verizon WWAN 3G mobile broadband, has a keyboard that's only 10% smaller than the Vaio TT and 802.11n wi-fi. It also comes with an instant start pseudo-OS that lets you access things like music, internet and email without having to fully boot Windows Vista (using the same Xross Bar UI as the PS3).

The Sony Vaio P will be offered in 5 colors (red, green, black, white and onyx), will sell for $900 (pre-orders began last Friday) and will start shipping in February.

No word from Rogers, Telus or Bell as of yet.
