Steve Ballmer isn't afraid of the iPhone

This article points to Steve Ballmer's comments on the iPhone. It is stupid to assert that the iPhone will flop because other devices "already have the same features." The iPod brought no new features to the market, and neither does the latest generation of Macintosh computers. But they're selling like hotcakes for other reasons. Hmmm.. Wonder what those are?

The iPhone could be a pretty big disaster for Apple. But it's way too early to say. There's no telling what that 20 something crowd will buy. The market is going to decide if the iPhone is a big hit. With the iPod and the cleaned up line of Macintosh computers, Steve Job's got a pretty good record going for him..
