Glenn Lurie, AT&T’s “point man” on the Apple iPhone project was interviewed by Brier Dudley for The Seattle Times yesterday.
When questioned about the iPhone’s price, Lurie let a bit of news (or at least of confirmation of what many have suspected) slip, “…You have the widgets, some of the Google applications that are coming — there are just so many things here that the price will not be an issue.”
When asked what’s his favorite iPhone feature, Lurie replied, “I don’t know if I can answer that. It’s a pretty incredible browsing environment. That’s the first part that I think will blow people away. It’s the first widescreen iPod they’ve ever done; it is very, very good, works extremely well. I think the other thing people haven’t really thought through is that Apple’s so good at simplifying things. That’s just what they’re known for; they’ve really simplified the phone. The standard phone applications are really intuitive, whether it’s receiving a phone call, putting that person on hold, adding another party and bringing a conference call together.”

@Not Quite Yet:
You forgot a few features.
Hmmm, lots of comments to my post. But no intelligent responses.
