The ipod and the iphone have proven to be the most sucessful duo, the ipod has taken the portable music industry by storm and now the iPhone is doing the same thing for the mobile industry, but Apple is not cashing or taking advantages totally in the marketing arena. Here is the point: The marketing behind the ipod was and is still excellent, trendsetting, joyful and has done its job, put the ipod everywhere in an entertainming manner, everybody enjoys those well done ads, the music, the images, the strategy worked for the ipod. With the iphone, Apple has turned to the other side, showing what to do with your newly iphone. While this is a direct to your brain marketing, it is totally different from the ipod one. Good, the ipod and the iphone have received thousand of free TV exposure, people showing their favorite mp3 or smartphone to everybody and this represents a bigger than expected and unpaid marketing campaign. But hey, Where is the Yanqui's based iPod or iPhone? Or the David Ortiz fully loaded iPod? And there is where Apple is still sleeping, there is a bigger and more fanatic audience out there that is willing to have a Baseball ...

The iphone to land in India next september, maybe…

Categories: Apple, Applications, Battery, accesories, internet, iphone, ipod | add this page to Mister Wong

Indians will no longer need to illegally buy, unlock and then use the most-desired item on gadget lovers' lists -- the Apple iPhone. Its much-awaited and delayed India launch is expected with telecom operator Vodafone in the first week of September. The Cupertino, California-based company, according to Apple retail sources, said initially the 8 GB version of the much-hyped touchscreen device -- which combines Wi-Fi capabilities with a powerful email client, TV feeds, online music store and map-based location guide -- will be launched at a price ranging between Rs 27,200 and Rs 28,000. Based on buyer response, the launch of the 16 GB version will be staggered to the middle of 2009. Apple sources in Singapore, when contacted last month, had maintained that the India launch would happen in 2008, but were tight-lipped on the exact date. Apple reportedly claims to have shipped four million iPhones this January since its US launch on June 29 last year, and its chief Steve Jobs has targeted sales of 10 million units by December 2008. The tie-up is an exclusive arrangement with AT&T. Initial sales targets for the iPhone in India or unit numbers at the time of launch are as yet unavailable, with Apple wary of ...

New ipod/iphone oriented online store launched

Categories: Apple, Audio, Battery, Business, Charger, Dock, Games, accesories, clothes | add this page to Mister Wong

It seems that each generation is defined in part by the medium through which they listened to their music. From records to tapes to CDs, each new audio source has provided vast improvements in sound quality and portability. Since the advent of the mp3 audio file, music no longer has to exist in the tangible realm. With the ability to transport thousands of songs in a package the size of a matchbook, the Apple iPod has taken the world of portable music by storm. Now that these miniature jukeboxes have become the standard for portable music, www.iPodMiniMall.com has launched to provide all the accessories necessary to make the most of these amazing little devices. The first complaint owners sometimes have of these mini music machines is that they can be fragile and either break or scratch easily. The obvious remedy to this issue is to keep the device securely housed in a form-fitting case. The site carries a host of cases for every model, from the ultra compact iPod shuffle to the formidable and powerful iPod video. These cases not only provide sturdy protection from bumps and scratches, but also allow the mechanism to be clipped or strapped to the body ...
