Re: Why does everyone hate the iphone?

I like Both. (am I a sinner?)

<Rant>
lol in all honestly I dont harp on the downfalls of windows mobile or the downfalls of Iphone cause they both have grown to where honestly if I went back to just 1999 our phones would make people cry out of pure joy.

Its all about delivery. Period.
People are going to go for what is more productive or they are going to go for what feels better/easier and try to find a middle ground. A best of both worlds if you will. some will lean one way while others will lean to the other. There has yet been a phone that has yet to truly capture the best of both because there will never be one. people are the problem as people will always lean based on there lifestyle.

We used to be able to gripe about features but half of us forgot how things used to be in the smartphone world apprently. I praise Windows Mobile and Palm for there great ideas for fuctionality for PDA/Smartphone Devices. I praise Apple Iphone for showing the world that they CAN enjoy a smartphone and push competition further. I praise Blackberry for there Steller Email delivery system and all around work oriented products and I praise them for adventuring (same with WM) into the world to where its NOT just for business.

I have owned nearly all phone OS types (except webOS though I tried and liked it. with the Pre im waiting for Verizon on that one(side note EVERY AREA IS DIFFERENT WHEN IT COMES TO COVERAGE SO NO NEED TO DEBATE ABOUT SOMETHING THAT IS GEOGRAPHICAL)) Android, Windows Mobile, Original Palm, Blackberry and I wont even go into the version numbers. Its all about Delivery like I said. All have there ups and downs.

Right now wife has a BB that I LOVE to help her with, I have a WM THAT I LOVE, I HAD an Iphone that I LOVED, I HAD an android phone that I loved but needs to mature.

But look at any spec sheet when it comes to features for ALLLLLLLL of these devices. You will see SO many similarities that its FUNNY AND NOT FUNNY at the same time. and yet we QQ over the 2 or 3 features that each phone doesn't have. No point. If you don't like something thats fine but don't bash someone for it and visa versa. People just want to make there phone look cool by bashing others and honestly its sickening to me. I only compete with my phone when someone is bashing me. Other than that I don't flaunt my phone since IM the only one thats going to be using it for the most part anyways.

All im saying is people shouldnt knock others stuff all the time just because they:
a. havent tried it
b. didnt give it a chance when they did
c. feel bad about there purchase
d. like one style over another (PEOPLE HAVE DIFFERENT STYLES...it happens!)
e. dont like another carrier (geographic, finacial, or treatment again will be different!)
f. dont have anything better to do.
