I kind of agree w/all that. Does anyone know the latest rumor as to when the HD2 will be hitting the US?

Someone on one of these threads said it will be coming out for Sprint end of December beginning of January, but of course with no proof... I guess we'll find out!!!

Not true, the HD2 has all the specs to run WinMo7 according to the rumors.



HD2 does not need a keyboard. I know this is hard to swallow, I'm a huge physical keyboard guy myself, but the HD2's screen is so large that the onscreen keyboard is bigger than most physical keyboards! Read Slashgears article on the keyboard and how good it is!

First of all, MS DOMINATES the OS market.
They have a global marketshare of 92.5%

Not only do they lead OS marketshare, they absolutely destroy the competition.

To put it in perspective, Apple's computer/OS marketshare is ~ 5.3% GLOBALLY (they like to just tout US numbers that put them in a better light, but even then its ONLY 8.5% of the US marketshare, their best market, and yet still pathetic figures)

And software for servers
And office productivity
And internet browser marketshare
And of course OS's

Microsoft dominates still in all of those markets.




:scratch:

Are you nuts?
Better because they are more expensive?
Better because they have slower processors?
Better because they have slower video cards?
Better because they have only about 1/10000th the amount of software available?
Better because they have a very limited selection of hardware?
Better because they have a very select few configurations to choose from?
Better because of what exactly?

They cost more, do less, and give you fewer options.

Windows 7 basically put the nail in the coffin for any sort of excuse Apple could lob at MS and PC's.

Also, get back to me when you can build your own Mac with your own hands, load your own OS, your own components, and do it for less than half of what it would cost a comparably spec'd PC.



iPhone doesn't outsell a damned thing.

iPhone = 40 million units sold in 2.5 years
iphone = 16 million units sold per year


In 2007 alone, Global sales of cellphones were 1.15 BILLION UNITS


To put that in perspective.
iPhone = 16 million units sold per year
Global mobile phones sales = 1,150,000,000 per year

So, iPhone accounts for only 1.3% of the sales of mobile phones per year (that 1.15 Billion number has since gone up, but that's the most recent figure I could find, as newer figures would reduce the iPhone's percentage)

So, when a product only represents 1% of the market, what the hell do you call it? I certainly wouldn't call it "outsells the world"


Microsoft by the way also has a LARGER INSTALL BASE than Apple does of WinMo devices.
There are ~ 100 MILLION WM devices out there in the wild.
Marketshare != install base, and iPhone has only beaten MS in marketshare in just 1 quarter over the last 2.5 years. Incidentally, that was the same quarter that the 3GS launched, and no new WM handsets launched. Go figure.





Explain PsyStar
Explain BootCamp
Explain Cydia
Explain Jailbreaking




Windows 7
ZuneHD
Project Natal
Windows Media Center on W7
Tablet PC's with W7 (by association)

Just because you're unfamiliar with their products, doesn't mean the rest of the world is.




That's about the only thing you've said thus far that remotely resembles a logical and cogent response.
