Apple Introduces the iPhone 3GI

Apple Introduces the iPhone 3GI; The “I” is for Invisible

from Mashable! by Adam Ostrow
Legendary satire site The Onion has been on a roll lately, at least in poking fun at the tech world. They broke news of one of Twitter’s co-founders launching a new mind-numbingly useless service, while also cleverly mocking our tendency to upload unflattering party photos on social networks.

Now, the site is again going after Apple fanboys, reporting on the launch of the iPhone 3GI. The “I,” in case you’re wondering, stands for “invisible.” The highlights, as reported by The Onion:
“In a move expected to revolutionize the mobile device industry, Apple launched its fastest and most powerful iPhone to date Tuesday, an innovative new model that can only be seen by the company’s hippest and most dedicated customers …

… According to Apple, the new iPhone 3GI boasts significant hardware and software upgrades, superior processing speeds, and a multi-touch interface that provides those who are “cool enough” with a rich user experience. The wide-screen display reportedly also features the most brilliant colors and finest resolution ever imagined …
… Retailing for $599, the iPhone 3GI offers only the most special Apple consumers—the ones who believe in the company more than anything else in the world, and who would never, ever dream of questioning it—the ability to open dozens of powerful applications at once.”
