iPhone News Roundup – 08.27.09
0It has been a pretty busy week in the world of iPhone. The phone is one of the dominant players in the smart-phone market, so it’s no wonder that Apple is working hard to keep it that way. Apple is expanding its reach around the globe, and it seems the time has finally come for China to get the iPhone. Apple may have achieved great things with the iPhone so far, but getting involved in the Chinese market can help accelerate Apple’s growth faster. Apple will not have it all to itself in that market, but it’s a market worth taking a shot at.
Things in this side of the ocean couldn’t be better for Apple. The iPod video is already in the works, and Steve Jobs is spending his time developing the right strategy for Apple tablet, the iPad. Apple is going to get a couple of popular music services on the iPhone. Rhapsody by Real Networks is another great way for people to listen to music on demand. And who can forget about Sirius’ latest crack at the iPhone market.
If all these developments are exciting, things are going to get a lot more interesting as Apple’s next event is almost upon us. Many sources claim that we won’t see an announcement about the iPad, but even so, it’d be very interesting to see what Apple has in store for iPod fans. iTunes 9, iPod V, and a few other surprises could be in the cards. So stay tuned.
