The audience cheered for "large-screen iPod" and "phone." They yawned for "Internet Communicator." Remember that.
@_ChrisHarris @willhains @caseyliss how would you have described it in 2007?

@monkbent@willhains@caseyliss I wish he'd put it second of three. Wording? 'Internet Tablet' was what people were wanting from Apple. -
@_ChrisHarris@monkbent@caseyliss YES! I agree. The ordering of the three took the punch out of it. “Phone” should have been last! -
@willhains@_ChrisHarris@caseyliss it was in the exact correct order -
@monkbent@_ChrisHarris@caseyliss Interesting — I expected you to agree with that. Why? -
@willhains@_ChrisHarris@caseyliss text book laddering. 1. What exists 2. What you're expecting 3. What is revolutionary -
@monkbent@_ChrisHarris@caseyliss Except the reality of “Internet communicator” in 2007 was push email and a web browser. Which existed. -
@willhains@monkbent@_ChrisHarris@caseyliss Agreed. I had a Treo 650 back then. Now there's a huge difference in degree, but none in kind. -

@monkbent@_ChrisHarris@willhains@caseyliss “Pocket Computer” would’ve been cool. But I remember watching it & immediately groking it. -
@blakehill we were "watching" a live blog. Total confusion :)
