I don’t see it either… but everyone who’s actually worn one seems to think it’s a huge deal. Including people who own other headsets and never use them.
At this point, I’m willing to assume they’re right. A bit like how phones were terrible until suddenly the technology improved a bit (better touch screens, faster CPUs, faster cellular networks, better cameras, better software…) and suddenly smartphones became awesome.
If Apple is onto something, other brands of headset will match them soon enough. They all have access to the same hardware suppliers, it’s just a matter of putting it together and writing some decent software.
Is this some Apple-fanboy historical revisionism? Phones were awesome. You could run all those J2EE games, or, say, ICQ clients on them. You could transfer files via IR ports, or use those to control your TV. You could listen to music, use mobile browsers (well, WAP was kinda expensive, but), and with that Web it was enough when you really needed it. Some would even have GPS or something.
Until “smartphones” with touch screens and bullshit OSs and all functionality lacking aside of two-finger-zoom and lickable buttons became common, then they were terrible until everybody got used to them
