Phwoaaaaaaar… what a gorgeous phone! As we all know, the iPhone 3G came out today in Tokyo (and many other countries) and that a crazy load of folks camped out overnight (and longer) at the flagship SoftBank store in Omotesando just so they can secure themselves a unit. Approx. 1,500 people camped out, to be exact. Needless to say, the iPhone 3G is sold out. Of that 1,500 or so, a handful happen to be my friends whom have all pretty much got themselves a brand spanking new iPhone.

While the whole world is all caught up with tomorrow’s launch of the iPhone 3G (a dude here in Tokyo has been camping outside a SoftBank store in Omotesando since Monday!!), I was given a run-through of the HTC Touch Diamond cellphone by TMK, whom I happened to bump into on the train.

Phone, iPod, and Internet in one fast 3G device.

Introducing iPhone 3G. With fast 3G wireless technology, GPS, support for Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, and the new App Store, iPhone 3G puts even more amazing features in your hands. And just like the original iPhone, it combines three products in one —a revolutionary phone, a widescreen iPod, and a breakthrough Internet device.

And thank god for that. No, not because I’m really into this thing. Its more like, ‘it’s finally over’ so the Mac related sites I usually visit can finally talk about something else.

Jeez, for weeks, every Mac site I read has talked about nothing other than the iPhone. Seriously, I mean talked about nothing. Daily updates were iPhone, iPhone, iPhone! Things like… AT&T iPhone training manual released, iPhone launch guide released, AT&T’s EDGE is slow, iPhone has new battery, free iPhone for employees, etc., etc., etc. It was really getting to me. I didn’t bother to read those articles, just the titles showing up constantly on my RSS reader was enough to drive me nuts.

After 6 months since the iPhone announcement, I’m worked up about it again after seeing these new commercials.

To be very honest, I kinda forgot about the iPhone after the announcement. Afterall, the announcement was in early January and the thing doesn’t ship till the end of this month in US. I mean, 6-7 months from announcement till launch is a very long time. Long enough for me to forget just how awesome the user interface is. Basically, for the last few months, I just didn’t catch onto the hype nor thought much about the iPhone. But after seeing the new commercials and seeing the user interface in action again, boy all I can say (again) is, this thing is incredible!

I’m still waiting to see a new iPod based on the iPhone’s technology! It’s taking forever…

Do you guys remember the New Colour Variation poll AU KDDI was running for the Media Skin cellphone which I mentioned about a few months back? No? Uh, OK… here’s a quote from my original entry:
