there's a lot of apple wow factor don't get me wrong, but its dated. Its been 2 years 3rd party developers and hackers are actually being stopped more than the people that say microsoft stops development

Its all advertising. Even advertising can call crap sunshine
I'm assuming you are being serious. So the iphone is all old technology and is all about advertising....

I'm sorry but I have to disagree. Even though I don't think the latest update is anything special... we have much to thank the iphone for.

How long did we suffer with PIE until safari for the iphone came out? (then suddenly there was a flood of viable browsers)
How long did we suffer the same archaic "Today Screen"...
How about gestures? Of course the iphone didn't invent these things... but boy did they make it popular.
I've owned a Windows mobile device when it the operating system was still called Windows CE. It was the only game in town and sometimes if was very painful to use.
I have to say that most of the dramatic WMO development came out when the iphone hit the scene.

Why why Why do these threads ALWAYS degenerate into somehow making the iphone into some crap inferior device?
