It’s coming. Soon. The highly anticipated and debated IPhone is due to be released next week. And with this anticipation the number of bloggers writing about the phone is growing. The average number of posts per day has increased almost 20% during the month of June as compared with May numbers.

When looking at the tone of the posts for the IPhone in general, it’s very positive but on the flip side, looking at the posts specific to the phones features, the posts are predominately (56%) negative

Some examples of the negative posts here and here and here.

Time (okay another week or so) will tell if the IPhone will live up to its hype and will be a huge success for Apple and AT&T . Of course we will look at the chatter post launch and see what bloggers really think once they get their hands on the IPhone.
