You DO realize that, in spite of Apple being a newcomer to cell phones, and not offering all the features that you deem so important, that Apple HAS addressed the need for a cell phone that is easy and fun to use while still offering a reasonable set of features for many people. That’s why there are now more iPhones than ALL phones running your beloved WIndows Mobile combined.

There will always be people like you that value feature count and megahertz over user-interface, design, and attention to detail– people who love to curl up with an big fat instruction manual, and then feel superior to everyone else who hasn’t the time or desire to master complex products. Enjoy wallowing in your elitist hatred.

I commend you for having the gaul to stand up to these festering fanboy poser apple loving freakazoids.

The sad part is, an Apple is actually an OK computer, but the incessant wankery by Apple Fascists makes the mere mention of the name a nauseating experience.

Dude, you DO realize that Windows Mobile phones have been around for 10 years, right? You DO realize that they are more powerful, more expandable, more established, and (like most PC products) have 99% of the market in 3rd party software, right? You DO realize that pretty much all of the list of 28 reasons why iPhone sucks (excellent list, btw) aren’t problems for WM phones, right?

I just bought a T-Mobile Wing with Windows Mobile 6 Professional, and it does EVERYTHING an iPhone can’t do, and probably will never be able to do.

Face facts, APPLE SUCKS. Come visit my site: http://www.AppleHaters.com

(It’s new & under construction, so please bear with me!)

You can claim that the iPhone is nothing new by pointing at the feature lists of competing phones, but Apple has a way of making the whole greater than the sum of its parts.

As for the cell phone “experience”, perhaps that’s part of Apple’s magic. They can take something as mundane as using a cell phone or computer and put so much passsion and attention to detail into the design that using it actully touches your soul.

Ridicule it all you want, but most people who have actually tried an iPhone fall in love with it. That’s why the hackers and unlockers as so mad at Apple. They could choose a Blackberry or other smart phone that can accept 3rd party apps or be chipped for use on different carrriers, but they lust after that special Apple experience. Kind of a love-hate relationship, I guess.

Your friends waste their money and no one gives a ball about your Verizon contract.
How do you consider a phone “bold and new” when the Japanese market has had nearly the same product for years? Also, can you explain what a “cell phone experience” is? I’m not certain I have an “experience” while using my phone….

But you know what? A few of my friends have iPhones, and in spite of all their flaws, the iPhone is quite usable, and actually pretty sweet. Things will only get better. The price has already dropped by 33%. Apple has announced that an API for third party applications is coming. By the time my current contract with Verizon is up (10 months), I expect Apple will have released an updated version that will address many of the above complaints.

As the Mac did for the PC market, I predict the cell phone experience overall will benefit from Apple’s example.

Apple may not always get things right, but at least they have the balls* to introduce bold and new products rather than just making an exact copy of whatever seems to be popular at the time.
