Yesterday, Apple announced the iPhone — something we have all been waiting for, for a very long time. And it’s beautiful!

And the effect of the announcement was directly traceable on the markets. Below is a picture of the share price development of Apple, Palm and the makers of BlackBerry for the past days. Ouch!

I bought a MacBook Pro (the fastest laptop on the planet) some time ago. So, naturally, I’ve been surfing the Internet for a lot of Mac stuff lately. This ad (one year old, when Apple launched their new lines containing Intel processors) is a perfect example of the ingenious marketing that they do. I love that company.
