Firefox Browser the best?

This week Firefox has hit the 400 million download mark, and according to figures now has just over 17% of the Internet Browser market.

No surprise to myself as I think it beats Microsoft’s IE7 hands down.

It looks better, is safer, has great plugins and themes and the list goes on.

If you still have not tried it yet, you must πŸ˜‰

iPod Touch model

Apart from  anoyning current 8 gig iPhone $599 users with a $200 price cut, I find the new iPod Touch model intresting, its almost a iPhone, but without the phone part.

Now surely as it has wi-fi , that means you can use it on wireless with someone like skype to make calls? If not as standard, once a 3rd party releases a hack etc?

Surely this will also dent the iPhone sales? I have not read the full specs etc yet, but if the iPod touch has a web browser, then could people then just surf the net and use other 3 party online companies to make calls over the net?

I am sure a lot of current iPhone users already use the wireless connection to surf the web already as the edge network in the usa is not that fast.

I heard and read a lot at first that said , Apple will never release anything to risk there iPhone sales and now we have $200 price cuts and you now has the touch models on the scene…

So either now a £399 iPhone and a 2 year contract to AT&T or $299 for a Touch iPod and use it on wireless without a extra $100 and a 2 year contract tied to it πŸ˜‰

I bet AT&T cant be that happy about this either!

iPhone Price cut

Apple has cut the price of its 8gig iPhone from $599 to $399.

And surely a kick in the teeth for the bulk of many mac fans who bought there phone when Apple launched it, including myself who recently bought one from the USA.

Apple never drops it’s prices so quick on a new product like that, and you really cant buy Steve Jobs excuse of it was done for the holiday season, and it seems Apple stock reflected this yesterday dropping 5.1% on the day.

My take would be after the mac fans bought up the first 750,00 units, a sharp slowdown has been seen by Apple and also with the many other phone makers out there with much cheaper and better equiped hardward than the iPhone, Apple had no choice but to cut the price.

But I really think Apple should refund everyone who originally bought the $599 phones at the start, rather than just those who bought within the last 14 days.

Still one must feel sorry for those who adore Apple and bought the phones at the start, as it is those fans that Jobs has kicked in the teeth. Yes early adopters always pay more, but to cut $200 off it so quick, says panic mode to me.

My take is Apple should have launched the phone at $299 and unlocked if they really wanted to reach the masses.

Now watch those eBay prices drop πŸ˜‰
