The arrival of Apple's new iPhone and iphone 3G like its predecessor is a combination of three products in one — a revolutionary phone, a wide-screen iPod, and a breakthrough Internet device with rich HTML email and a desktop-class web browser is making a wave out there with every single unit grabbed up in a recent release in Japan.

Apple has provided its buyers many new useful features just at the touch of their fingertips. With its sofisticated high technology, It has made some welcome changes to its e-mail client, where you can select several messages to move or delete them and even attachment support has improved too. You can now view even larger PDF documents and also view PowerPoint attachments. This powerful and cool electronic gadget available in today’s market and is one of the best smartphone available and is not surprisingly a wish on everyone's list.

The iPhone being a convergence product. It combines multiple functions into one device. Past existing products like the
N-Gage and the Nokia Communicator have been convergence device's failures. Convergence products capture the imagination of the media and public and mobile phones have been on a convergence path for years now. It started out as a basic function phone to make and receive calls, now it's basically impossible to get one without a camera, and without the ability to send text messages as well as voice messages. The device has converged with simple cameras, and added additional features such as text messaging. While there are many individuals who wish their mobile phones just made calls, it would be hard to argue that the addition of new features beyond the basics of making phone calls haven't been wildly popular with consumers.

Apple with the full-featured smartphone level of convergence has yet to really catch on with consumers, however, there are yet lots more competitors out there who are ready to re-invent and product "clone" phones like the iphone. Many other handset makers are actually riding the iPhone wave. Their iPhone clones are gaining traction, in July, Samsung model Instinct gained a responsive high response as of the iPhone. LG has also gained their share of profit from thier best-selling devices Voyager and Dare.

Apple spends copious amounts of time and energy making the whole greater than the sum of its parts. And that is exactly the type of situation where convergent devices shine. There will be compromises made and an iPhone will never handle features X,Y or Z as well as a dedicated X, Y or Z. However, the existence in greater faith of Apple's ability, it probably will continue to produce product that appeals to the masses and works great for 90% of people than any other mobile phone company to date.
