I wouldent invest into an Iphone , and yes , Im calling it an investment , especially because I would have to pay for it at least 600 Euros , if I would want to own one .

The Iphone has 3 major issue , why it will never be a popular gaming device :

1 . Unlike the PSP , its already advertised more as a multimedia device and less as a gaming device , while the PSP had at least some game ads when it was released , and it was considered first as a handheld .

2 . There is no physical game storage for it , the only way to get them is trough DL them , and this will affect a lot the upcomming games quality .

3 . Price . Common , even the PSP was 250$ at release in the US , and with an touchscreen enabled device already out for 120$ ( DS ) nobody will be wowed by this feature .

See this is what I don't get everyone sites price as the problem but people will buy ipods (Note iPod Touch above). There is no argument about that. The question is of the millions that buy how many will buy games. I think a lot will, because it is now an entertainment system and gaming is part of that. I don't expect anyone to buy the iPod for games, but I do expect that of all the people that buy it, for the hundred other reason, will also buy games.
