16GB Apple iPhone Rumors Were True

Rumors had circulated around the net about the 16GB iPhone and now it looks like its true. Apple has updated its site to introduce the new 16GB iPhone, just in time for Valentine’s day. Is there anything new? Not really… just more space.

Now truth be told, I’ve only handled an iPhone twice, both totaling 5 minutes, but that as enough to change my mind about the device. Yes I do think its a breakthrough in technology devices, especially for the US market, but as with anything it could use some work.

According to SMSTextNews, the 16GB will also be available in the UK for O2 and will be priced at Â£329. Consumers in the US can purchase the iPhone via Apple’s Online Store for $499.

The Future of MM Apps and Services

Worldwide, mobile operators are struggling to maintain their current ARPU levels as competition drives ever-lower pricing for voice minutes and text messaging plans. At the same time, operators are trying to determine what is the secret to developing the next generation of applications and services that enable them to attract new customers, reduce churn and to get more value from their existing customers.

But predicting the next "killer app" is not that simple. And the mobile industry is infamous for bouncing from one topic to the next in a desperate search for the next great app.

Predicting the future is the art of seeing the present logically extended. Given the degree of interdependency -- and invested capital -- among the key players in the value chain, changes in the industry will likely be evolutionary rather than revolutionary.

Hear Airwide CEO Kevin Wood highlight 4 key factors he sees in predicting the future of mobile messaging applications and services in this interview with Telecom TV.
