iPhone Duo

Was at the local mall the other night and happened by the Apple Store. Stopped in to see an iPhone Duo in real life.

Pretty nice. The closed form factor is definitely weird and I think I’d get annoyed with trying to get it in and out of my pocket pretty quickly. The folded out form is really like an iPad mini and the fold didn’t seem to be that noticeable in the 3 minutes I messed around with it.

Yes, I did open and close it about 20 times. Yes, that part is as satisfying as it people say it is.

Its not for me though. At $2,000 that’s double what I’d pay for the fanciest phone I’d ever own. At first, I though merging a phone and iPad sounded like a good idea, but I think for day to day, I still like separate devices better.
