Despite two days have passed since the launch of the iPhone 4 in Malaysia, the lines of desperate, gadget-geeks waiting to satisfy their hunger on the latest masterpiece from Apple seem endless. Since Thursday night, hundreds have been spending hours in line waiting for the the said to be “equipped with more features” upgrade from iPhone 3GS. Apart from FaceTime, the new features of the iPhone 4 includes the ability to record, playback and edit 720p high-definition videos along with an upgraded high-resolution screen. When interviewed, many adoring fans claimed the long hours were torture yet ultimately, “worth it.”

Over the past three years, Apple has established a stable market in the mobile phone industry. Despite not being the “first” to introduce full-touch screen products, Apple has created a unique image for the iPhone with sleek designs and a simple, user-friendly interface. Never the less, Apple’s huge, global wide success from the “Ipod,” enhances the marketing for the iPhone. The “greatest Ipod ever” motto present consumers with a dominating feeling of revolution as the favourite portable music player has armoured itself with everything one could expect from a touching-edge wireless product, the best invention since toilet paper.
