Re: Why is iPhone not considered a smartphone?
 

exactly,

the funny thing is it can do so many things even a winmo phone can't do.

But I'll stick with WinMo/Android for now.

Re: Why is iPhone not considered a smartphone?
 

the way you worded that, makes it seem as though i was talking about winmo. i was going more apples to apples by comparing dumbphones. please dont drag winmo in to this. we all know its a beast in its last death throes.

Re: Why is iPhone not considered a smartphone?
 

well winmo IS considered a smartphone, so a comparison was worthy. It can also do things Android can't and can actually copy/paste unlike winpho7.

Having said that I actually am pretty excited about winpho7.

Just noticed your avatar.

Man I think I saw every "cartoon planet" episode back in the day, SGCTC wasn't as good, but was funny sometimes.

Re: Why is iPhone not considered a smartphone?
 

we just cant agree on anything. while i have seen a lot of cartoon planet, sgc2c and the brak show are the 2 best shows ive ever seen! you must not "420". ive got tattoos of brak and zorak on the back of each of my arms. im getting space ghost and moltar when ive got the money.

Re: Why is iPhone not considered a smartphone?
 

well, I can agree that those are perhaps the most awesome tattoos ever.

Re: Why is iPhone not considered a smartphone?
 

of course the iPhone is. It runs a *nix os (darwin) and it supports third party native apps. That last bit is pretty much the major differentiator between dumb and smart phones - do they support third party native apps (not just midlets, although back in the day, supporting midlets was good enough to get you the smartphone stamp.)

Why they aren't consider smartphones here has nothing to do with reality.

Re: Why is iPhone not considered a smartphone?
 

to answer the original question:

studies show that fanboyism has been known to cause irrational thinking and behavior. extreme cases are known to make its victims completley lose touch with reality.

that being said, the iphone IS a smartphone. its not the smartphone for me personally but it is for sure a smartphone no question

I think the point if this thread was to attempt to stir things up as nikkg likes to do from time to time. Perhaps he was looking for another reason to praise and defend the iPhone against ill comments. Fail.

Or perhaps he knew the fandroids would be trolling to find a chance to bash the iPhone. Umm, score then? But seriously, I think a phone is only as smart as it's owner. Let's face it, there are quite a few people out there that make the jitterbug look like a smartphone with the way they act.

For those that don't know what a Jitterbug is with all the Jitterbug references, here it is below:
