Since the next few weeks should get the hype to a fever pitch, we thought we'd kick off with this lovely rumor. - -When asked to justify the iPhone's price tag Lurie says: - ->I think when people get their hands on it and really experience it — the touch screen is phenomenal, this touch screen is like nothing you've ever used — to experience that, the skepticism, I think, around some of those things will go away. - ->There are other things — you have the widgets, <b>some of the Google applications that are coming</b> -- there are just so many things here that the price will not be an issue. - -(Emphasis mine) - -Of course Lurie could be referring to the Google Maps features that Jobs unveiled at MacWorld, but it's also possible that there's more in the works -- Google Apps perhaps? Google Reader? Google Notebook? - -Certainly Google Apps optimized for the iPhone would help Apple on the business front, though personally, [Steve Ballmer aside][3], I think the iPhone will do just fine even without the Office suite offerings. - -So what do you think my dear readers, could we see Google Apps for the iPhone?
