Aside from the blatant sexism and homophobia going on in the thread, this could be a useful discussion.
For those who are criticizing the "iPhone isn't for getting work done" argument, I'll simply allow a major Apple-loving technology blog to explain:

The funny thing is, he ends the really long explanation of why the iPhone sucks with a suggestion that Android is more suitable for getting things done, except that it needs a hardware keyboard. But if you read the post, WinMo could do everything he wants to do plus already has a hardware keyboard in many instances.
What's even funnier is that these major proponents of the iPhone (and anything Apple, really) lay out the best argument against the iPhone here, better than anything I've seen on this WinMo forum.
Also, I should add, the reason for the "Apple hate" probably has to do with the general perception of the iPod/iPhone. It's annoying to be asked, "What kind of iPod is that?" when I'm standing there with a Cowon MP3 player. Not to mention the smugness of their users and advertising. The whole situation makes Apple seem like a bunch of elitist ****heads. Lastly, in reality John Hodgman is waaaay cooler than Justin Long.
