We're back from our Macworld hiatus to talk about the "iPhone Mark 3" and all the cool stuff we saw at Macworld! A month's worth of material was inadvertently crammed into this episode so it's much longer than a normal one. Show notes can be found at iPhoneAlley.com/podcast. If you have any questions, comments, or feedback, email us at Podcast[at]iPhoneAlley.com.

Much too long

Really guys, 2 hours and 5 minutes is a realistic length for an audio podcast? Please, if you can, keep it shorter next time.

I love the show.

Wow. That is long. I haven't listened to it yet but it's good for my commute.

You all fail at thinking out of the box this week. You need to think about target audiences other then yourselves and your own needs.

I'm not giving my teens an iPhone. It's too price and the data plan is too expensive. I would however give my kids a phone with sms, gps, and a built-in iPod.

Clearly there is a huge market there that Apple is not addressing.

I don't know if Apple would need to change the form factor or not. But I don't see why they couldn't.

I do believe Apple will eventually market to this group of people with the iPhone just as they did with the iPod. The best way to predict the future is to carefully look at history...

I had no idea Michael was Batman. Perhaps we can team up in the event of future zombie outbreaks.

It's so tough being right all of the time.

I loved this extra long Episode, if you have enough stuff to talk about, its better to take your time, then to rush it!

The long show is fine

I agree. If there is enough to talk about then take as long as you need.

Great thing about podcasts is you don't have to listen to it all at once.

Too bad most of the speculation was nullified and/or answered by the announcement of 3.0 by the time I listened to this show.
