(did you forget they dropped the price 100 dollars?) i dont understand your point at all? because the the mogul was 300 bucks for eons. to be honest, based off of what you've been saying in your responses.. i would have to just call you a hater man lol, because only a hater would say such things which doesnt really matter to begin with, but use it as the basis of their point, and then come off as a hypocrite at the same time in a way or two. i accept that you prolly wont ever like the iphone (its your prerogative), but i can let you know that you bring up a fairly weak argument when you try to justify your case on why its so "inferior". especially when it outsells the crap out of winmobile (isnt that ironic).

I don't think you understand that it's just a preference thing either you like it or you don't, I laid out why I didn't prefer it over winmo, I like it as a device just fine, just not my cup of tea. Calm down man, everything is going to be just fine. for what I need a smart phone to do, it is inferior to winmo. Obviously it suits you just fine, that's all good. Don't be just another winmo hater. Apple is an ok company they just work different and close everything off so its either their way or the highway, know what I mean.

It's all gravy baby.


edit: I also thanked ya for the stimulating conversation, you did bring up a few good points
