Everything x 3 - Similarity of captions between iphone, ps3, and kinect (sort of)

Everything x 3

The “summer blockbuster” seems less applicable to the movies and more to electronics lately.  With the announcement (and pre-order craze) of the iPhone 4 and more information/demos/hype for the PS3 Move and Xbox Kinect coming out of E3 – you’d think that there would be some more creativity a-buzz with taglines.

Nope.

  1. iPhone 4It changes everything. Again.
  2. PS3 Move - It changes everything.
  3. XBox is a little bit more creative – deciding to allude to the fact that it “changes everything” – “You are the controller.” …which I think basically says that it changes everything.

When Apple announced the iPhone 3GS earlier this month, along with the ooh’s and ahh’s were some hefty fees for AT&T’s bevy of current iPhone 3G users if they wanted to upgrade.  While LA Times Tech Blog recently reported that ‘AT&T Relents on iPhone 3GS upgrade pricing‘, the situation itself reveals that the iPhone has changed expectations and is waiting for things to catch up.

This post is off of a twitter exchange I had with greenlagirl (who runs that awesome greenlagirl website).  While it’s inefficient (among other things) that iTunes currently doesn’t have streaming of its online content, a little research told me that it might not be this way for long.  Engadget.com, off a CNET posting, noted in February 2009 that this might be the wave of the iTunes future.   It makes sense after all that iTunes would adopt streaming (evenutally), what with netflix streaming and hulu.com‘s popularity.  My friend Julius remarked that he had recently caught up on his tv shows (while in a sick stupor) and it had almost made him think to cancel his cable (before remembering that it didn’t carry some cable shows).
