Apple just doubled the space in its iPhone and iPod.

iPhone is a revolutionary new mobile phone that allows you to make a call by simply tapping a name or number in your address book, a favorites list, or a call log. It also automatically syncs all your contacts from a Windows PC, Mac, or Internet service. And it lets you select and listen to voicemail messages in whatever order you want — just like email. iPhone is available in an 8GB model for $399 and a new 16GB model for $499

Apple’s iPhone is ranked #3 in smart phone market world wide and have a worldwide share of6.5% which is huge in terms as iPhone is only available in USA & UK only. Apple’s products have really picked up pace and in the first quarter of 2008 apple made a net profit of $1.58 billion .

With the iPhone initially and then iPod touch, the touch screen systems are becoming more and more common. The apple’s new innovation Mac Air’s mouse pad is its self a multi touch screen. But how does this all stuff work. Touch screen is not a new phenomina introduced by Apple rather, Apple computers just specialized and refined the technology to greater level and placed it direcly in the consumers hands, though as far as i remeber Microsoft was yet another company who had build the touch screen with there product Surface but the mistake they made they never made it for regular consumers. “Greed Kills” rather build it for corporations and once after launch we never heard about it as far as i see the Product build by Microsoft was more complex then iPhone but still it wasn’t for average joe.

Ever wondered how the the touch screen works, its quite interesting how the simple and unique the technology is.
