Drops it? Make him pay for a new one if there is damage.

Why would you care what he thinks though? If something makes you happy (and doesn't hurt others) isn't that all that counts??

You are right.

But these idiots are so misinformed. Makes me sick.

Just laugh! :sign5: Simpletons can be amusing at times. :D

schettj 10-20-2007 12:05 PM

Take his iPhone and use it as a hammer to pound in a nail, look at it, and say, "Yep, you're right! It is a great hammer!"

Yay 4 Juggs 10-20-2007 12:09 PM

do you live by a lake river or ocean? and if so...how far can you throw?

TurboFool 10-20-2007 12:23 PM

Ask him to turn on the flash on his phone. Ask him to copy and paste something from a web page into an e-mail. Ask him to type without looking. Find a list of the things the iPhone is notorious for lacking and compare to your phone's abilities.

Or, just laugh, shake your head, and say "It's just not worth it. I'll let your enjoy your little 'phone.'"

mstevens 10-20-2007 12:37 PM

I'm not sure my Mogul is "better" than an iPhone. I mean, if what I wanted were an iPod that could surf the web and make the occasional phone call then the Mogul would be a very disappointing substitute. Since I've got little interest in carrying around an iPod and need to be able to look up drug coverage information many times a day, make calls, handle email, and take pictures of odd rashes, the Mogul is a much better choice for me.

Getting emotional about inanimate objects such as PPC's is not a winning strategy in life, nor is being very concerned about someone else's opinion of your phone, socks, car, sunglasses, etc.

The dropping part would have pissed me off. However, it's fairly likely that the denigration of your Mogul was the dropper's way of making his offense less unforgivable - "if the thing was worthless, then my dropping it wasn't really that bad." Irrational, of course, but that's the way humans work.

Tell him to Google "iphone lacking" and then pick any of the 663,000 links!

ls3mach 10-20-2007 01:46 PM

Proper steps.
1. Load the iPhone theme onto your device.
2. Buy a 6GB or 8GB SD card.
3. Install Palm threaded SMS.
4. Ask him to tell you exactly what his does better.

SINNN 10-20-2007 02:06 PM

Best thing to do in a situation like this is to Slide open you keyboard and open your exploror and navigate to youtube.com. Then play a video. Iphones have to go thru the crappy youtube/Mobile.com crap. heheehhe pathetic.

trev913 10-20-2007 02:33 PM

Honestly I would just put his dog in a microwave.

onthehunt 10-20-2007 03:04 PM

SINNN - I can't get youtube videos to play on my Mogul. When I click on a video I get this message, "You either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe Flash Player. Get the latest Flash Player." I get the same message using Opera Mini Beta 4 and with IE. Using IE, I also get a message the rtsp file can't be opened when I click on the video. How are you able to watch youtube videos? Thanks.

SINNN 10-20-2007 03:31 PM

very easy to watch the normal youtube. You need 2 files. ppcgeeks has them... ill look for a link.

SINNN 10-20-2007 03:41 PM

Follow these instructions and youll be able to see google video and youtube. The real sites too. Works on others too.

make him eat his own penis

SINNN 10-20-2007 04:54 PM

Ok.. ill throw in my insult since everyone else is doing it. I think you should have grab him by his testicles and slam them down on the ground. Then stomp them hard untill they look like pancakes. Then ,with a spatula unstick them from the ground and throw them in a barbe q grill. turn them over every 2 minutes. then prepare some Buns,tomatoes,bacon,ketchut,mustard,lettuce and some seasoning. Then once the testicles look well done ,slap them all into a nice nutpatty burger. Then.. tell hikm thisis his lunch.

aughsum 10-20-2007 08:36 PM

i dont know what id do in that situation.. id probaly give him the "wow your retarted" eyes and tell him to get on google. mogul>iphone.

canospinach 10-21-2007 02:26 AM

Clearly the iPhone owner was jealous hence his attempt to break your competitive piece of hardware. I dont think they can really help themselves. They had to wait soooo long for an overhyped-underdelivered piece of hardware its bound to drive a few to foaming at the mouth rage fits over something so obviously superior as an HTC product :-)

I see this myself often. In fact i have taken to carrying a 1st gen Ipod as a sizeable weapon for my own self-defense just to beat the moron-iphone owners back to their tinker toy playground.

tis true....iPhone....even babies need toys ;-)

poorlyduck 10-21-2007 04:15 AM

kick him in the balls and chock him till you put him a sleep, steal his iphone and sell it on ebay :)

jtrag 10-21-2007 07:55 AM

Name one thing the Iphone does that we can't do with a Titan. Now name as many things as you can, that we can do with the Titan, that we can't do with the Iphone. Get my point? Maybe you should point that out to him.

pgdeaner 10-21-2007 09:28 AM

Thanks....
 
One thing I really appreciate about the community here is that every time I think my job/friends/etc.... suck I just need to log in a browse a few posts to see that I'm not alone and I feel so much better.... :)

If someone had dropped my mogul and then went on to make little of what they had done I would surely repay the kindness.

Perhaps you should offer to reauchambeau the guy for his iPhone. Just make sure you get the first kick!

Ask him how it feels to follow the lemmings...

joatmon 10-21-2007 12:58 PM

Opinions very and people are entitled to thiers. However If someone were to actually drop mine intentionally I would tell him that he might as well get used to liking the Mogul... because he just bought one.

charm1718 10-21-2007 01:22 PM

Take his Iphone, throw it on the floor then stomp the screen til it cracks. After that, pick up your phone and say "it's nice having insurance".

Flashlight can be done on the iPhone.
Copy / paste- we know that cant.....yet!
I havent seen ONE Mogul user type without looking at the keyboard either.

Not everyone paid $599 for an iPhone- remember the price dropped. I paid full price for my Mogul and dont use documents or spread sheets on this device. Stuff like that, IMO, is best done with a real monitor.


None of us were there, so we have no way of knowing whether your Mogul was dropped on purpose or not. If it had been on purpose, the last thing I think I'd be doing is posting to find out what other people think about it.

The other thing is that you mentioned that the person who dropped it has an iPhone. In essence, why does that even matter? What if they didnt have an iPhone- would you still be here looking for opinions.

I'm saddened by many of the responses to this thread. Everyone buys what they buy for themselves, and not for someone else. iPhone owners tend to act like they are in a world amongst themselves, but so do many owners of others device.... just look at Treo users who think the world revolves around Treos! You cant tell these people anything.

Most of you, based on your replies, have very little love for iPhone owners/users. I dont and wont understand why anyone that chooses to use an iPhone has to be demeaned in such a way as presented here in this forum. The responses here have been disgraceful.

Not everyone embraces the Mogul or winblows devices period. I hope you all come down off your pedestals and stop being so closed minded.

I have a Mogul and iPhone.... does that make me some sort of idiot.
I paid $600 for the Mogul and could throw it out the window.
I paid $400 for the iPhone and have been using it since!

I dont think I turned to any of you here to ask "what should I get!"

I would have had more respect for the OP's plight had he not made a point of saying that Mogul was dropped by an iPhone!

SINNN 10-21-2007 03:36 PM

Iphone flamer. But you have rights for your own opinion.

you know what you do, you ask to see his iphone break it, and then tell him, have fun fixing that, while i walk into my local sprint store and get this fixed for free lmao. for ScandaLex, well when you battery dies have fun shipping your phone out to apple to replace that battery.

Win Mobile is the way to go. IPhone sucks, Sluggish net, not even half as much software for OSX the Win Mobile. Its endless with winmobile, and also for all the people who cant afford software, there is always a lot of hacked crap out there for the broke people

Are you saying that iPhone owners are misinformed? And why do they have to be idiots?

I think a lot of us are saying that anyone who drops your device (Mogul or otherwise) and then goes on to criticize it as "cheap and worthless" is certainly misinformed and quite possibly an idiot. Both are good devices but both have their shortcomings. But, as this is a PPC forum, there are bound to be more pro Mogul responses.

The next generation of hardware and software will most certainly take the best of both platforms. Look at what is already available: Touch scrolling in SBP's latest Pocket Plus release, a working release touch scroll picture viewer from Pocket CM, Grumps iPhone by WOW to name just a few.

Do I want an iPhone? No.
Am I glad there's an iPhone to spur development of better PPC products? You Bet!

As a business owner, I can tell you nothing keeps me trying to improve my business like the thought of my competition taking away my customers.

I never said all iPhone owners are misinformed. Few are, the ones I've met so far.

None of us were there, so we have no way of knowing whether you never saw a Mogul user typing without looking. If you had never seen a mogul user without typing, the last thing I think I'd be doing is posting to find out what other people think about it.

^^ That's how your logic is for arguing bro. ^^


Quote:

:scratch: Read my OP. I brought up the iPhone because he compared the iPhone to my Mogul first.

Opinions on what? I was just looking for reactions.

Get out more, get some fresh air, you won't regret it or be sad. Trust me. You are reading too much into this thread.

Is iPhone better than Mogul? Yes, in some aspect (like design) but Mogul is not "worthless or cheap." That's what we are discussing, read the OP.

Quote:

No one said "everyone embraces the Mogul." You are the one who just made this statement and now you are arguing it yourself. Congrats.

Throw it out the window? That does make you an idiot. Mogul is a good phone, give some credit instead of "throw it out the window."

We are not the ones that are saying iPhone is a cheap/worthless phone. We give it some credit unlike you who would "throw (mogul) out the window."

Quote:

I dont think I turned to any of you here to ask "what should I get!"
We never said you did. :)

Quote:

If the person who dropped my phone did not own an iPhone, of course I would disregard his opinion because he has never owned an iphone or a Mogul. Thus his opinion has no credibility.

So there goes your argument.

Man, it felt like I was on Bill O'Reilly reading you post.

TheBundo 10-21-2007 07:28 PM

Why would a Mogulian even associate with an iPhonehead?
