Re: Why is TP2 better than iphone

but you see, youve just hit the nail on the head. For people who are more concerned with sex appeal and working right out of the box (we are defining "working" as doing what it does, whether you like it or not. Remember, it didnt even do mms until a few months ago) then the iphone is the way to go. These are the same people who are better off with a mac because that sketchy porn site gets viruses on their pc. When you look at it this way, its not really fair to say the iphone is better. When it comes to functionality, the iphone cannot compete because it had very limited expandability and customization, whereas a WM device has nearly limitless potential. This has been beat like a dead horse and everytime the outcome is this: The iphone is for people who just want something that works, and arent picky about its function, looks sexy, and is the "cool" thing to have. WM is for the user that wants every ounce of power and potential out of his device, is not afraid to do what mods it takes to tap into that potential, and is not as concerned with the sex appeal and cool factor (but for the record, i think the tp2 is a very sexy device)

[edit] just to clarify, im not biased. I got my fiance an iphone for the very reasons mentioned above. its "cool" so she likes it, she doesnt have to do anything for it to work everytime, and while it doesnt have some of the features my phone does, shes happy with it because ultimate functionality is not a huge concern with her. I would have loved to get her a WM device, and I did, and it just wasnt for her, so shes got an iphone. that certainly doesnt make her phone, or my phone the better phone. two different classes of device.
