Iphones are popular because they're flashy toys marketed to hip twenty-somethings & Apple fans. Not saying the iPhone is a total POS, it does what it does well, but it is WAYYYY overhyped for what it really is. People think it's this UNBELIEVABLE device that changed the world, but it's not. It's a very limited device, a standard phone with a few neat features, that is popular because it LOOKS cool. It's like a cheerleader- pretty, but only capable of one thought process at a time. WM is a math club nerd- average to fugly but can write in a different language with each hand while reciting medieval poetry. Apple knew they'd sell millions of iPhones because A) Apple fanboys will buy anything shiny with an Apple logo on it, and B) if you hype something up enough people are bound to line up overnight to buy one.
For whoever asked what makes WM superior to iPhones, here's your answer. FREEDOM. The freedom to do literally whatever you want with your WM phone, without having to gain approval from Apple/AT&T. WM is both professional AND fun, and capable of doing almost everything a full-fledged computer can do. With an iPhone, well, you can do whatever Apple & AT&T ALLOWS you to do.
There. I've said my peace, we all know by now that I hate everything Apple & all I do is talk crap(and greatly enjoy it), so I'm vacating this thread.
