iPhone tops ‘TIME Magazine’ top 10 gadgets

imageThe iPhone has topped the “Top 10 Gadgets of 2007” list from TIME Magazine. TIME says the Apple device “changed the way we think about how mobile media devices should look, feel and perform.”

Here’s what else the mag had to say about the iPhone: “The design is exceptional inside and out: It’s got a slick glass-and-stainless steel case and an elegant touch screen loaded with eye candy. It’s an iPod and a 2-megapixel camera. Images and video clips display vertically or horizontally—they reorient themselves depending on how you hold the thing. When the phone detects a wireless network within range—your own home wi-fi set up or somebody else’s—it lets you tap once to connect, and then proceed with your Web surfing, Google mapping, emailing and other activities that can otherwise be painfully slow over AT&T’s cellular network—the only one, unfortunately, that carries iPhone calls.

The other nine products on the list are: the Nikon Coolpix S51C digital camera, the Netgear SPH200W Wi-Fi Skype Phone, the Palm Centro, the Sony Handcam HDR-CX7, the Samsung P2 music/video player, the Toshiba Portege R500-S5005 notebook, the FlyTech Dragonfly toy orinthopter, the Iomega eGo Portable Hard Drive and the Belkin N1 Vision Wi-Fi Router.
