So, you blame the iPhone for become an a-hole? Not that I am saying that you are... I am just trying to work logically through your statement (don't shoot the interpreter).
I won't be getting an iPhone because I really enjoy having a qwerty keyboard. I don't want to rely only on a touchscreen. Ed O.
i have the iphone but agree with ed.... i hate the touchscreen for texting and dialing. miss a real keypad with that said... iphone is the best phone out there and its not close
That is not true. The Palm Pre is the best phone out there - it just does not have anywhere near the amount of applications the iPhone has- and as such, will probably be a case of too little too late and will die. I know my wife was oohinh and aahing over the Pre and to this day wishes she could get one - but she decided to get the iPhone because it did a better job of getting into her job's corporate site/mail.
Not so. Not even close. As a PHONE, the iPhone is pretty fucking crappy. Lame service provider (AT&T) Mediocre call quality. Can't run apps and handle calls at the same time. And other problems that make it lame purely looked at as a phone. What the iPhone really is, is the best touchscreen based portable computer / media player / web browser / "app" device. Excellent media player, especially if you already had iTunes. Excellent web browser (though sabatoged by poor coverage and speed and quality of AT&T) service. As I said before, if you want a good PHONE (you know for making and taking calls), paired with the best service, paired with the best e-mail service / device combination, then you get a Blackberry on Verizon. If all those things are not important there are other good phones. There is no one perfect phone or "best" phone. Never will be. You have to choose what services are important and get the device and service that do those things well. I saw too many friends and family get the iPhone just because everybody else was. And they were "happy" with the phone because it was cool and kinda fun to use. But they all had issues with service and it not being a great phone calling device.
