It really gets old after a while.
Thats cause they are fanboys..if anything most people on this site don't care one way or the other about the iphone and rather don't like Apple's "closed standards"..just like I'm not to happy in the direction Motorola is going with Android..


To me the most agitating thing was the fact that the hardware on the iphone is better then the presumably "pocket computers" aka WM and Android...then I feel embarrassed when someone from the Android/WM calls out to say how their hardware is better then the iphone(showing ignorance).....its sad how junky hardware specs these "Super phones" have...

This is one reason I like the Galaxy S..FINALLY a device that matches and/or surpasses the iPhone's hardware on a pocket pc operating system..

I think he just means the general attitude of some Evo users and such who want to feel important by dissing the iPhone. Both of you guys haven't been blindly saying "it sucks" but giving some pretty good criticism, although I think you'd be less harsh if you actually owned one for a week or two.

And gTen, you know I'm all about that Vibrant now anyways

i use my dads 3gs every time im at his office. ive played with them. ive felt em, touched em, tasted em. ive got an ipod touch for both of my kids. im not saying anything shitty about apple or iphone. if you really want to see whos talking crap, look at who started the "hahah iphone4 sold more than evo" thread about an hour ago. in my thread in this iphone forum, i even said they make a good product with a good mp3 player and good video software with a good app store. what part of that is crap talking or saying it sucks?

I started that thread of the 3,000,000 to show that with all the trash being talked about it, it still sold 10 times as much as EVO did in only 3 weeks. The fandroids made the EVO to be the best thing the planet has ever seen and it should be selling millions by now.

yeah like I said, it's more of the general "iphone sucks and I've got an Evo muwhahahaha" attitude.

not directly towards you.

Re: This is why they diss iphone

did you know its true that 10 workers in taiwan killed themselves while chained to their iphone slave tables where they assemble them as an act of rebellion rather than be forced to work long hours chained to a table and have to sleep under said table while other workers are slaving on the other shift?
edit:sorry for the long sentence and this is not directed in a mean way at apple or iphones!
http://www.thefirstpost.co.uk/64063,...uicide-factory
Foxconn is not a sweatshop. It's a factory -- but my gosh, they have restaurants and movie theaters... but it's a factory. But they've had some suicides and attempted suicides -- and they have 400,000 people there. The rate is under what the US rate is, but it's still troubling. We had this in my hometown of Palo Alto, copy cat suicides. We're over there trying to understand this. It's a difficult situation.

Re: This is why they diss iphone

But see NIKKG, it is not only the iphone..when I first posted about the Galaxy S phone..you can see how many ppl responded saying "its no good because it wont have community support"....if you think about it, that would make it similar to Apple where the assumption is if it is not made by HTC the community will just "abandon it"...

The community serves to better what is widely available regardless of brand..to stick to HTC only is a joke...as a community we should take on anything that is worth working on...that is my general consensus...

If anything we let HTC get away with the poor hardware...so it is partly our fault as a community..

I've been trying to diversify this place and why I've been posting in the iphone forum. This place needs to diversify. If I only care about HTC, I'd go to xda-developers.

Re: This is why they diss iphone

i diss apple products because steve jobs is a jerk off and I hope htc rim and nokia gang bang him in a court of low for his deformation of character he did to them on friday. Btw steve jobs I can hold my ****ing hummer anyway i want without a ****ing 30 dollar bumper or one of your shitty cases. I hope everyone at apple is ashamed of how their CEO acted. I really wonder how much he got ass ****ed in high school.
