Why is it with the I phone - it sucks

[Cardinal Slin]

What is funny is I had a discussion yesterday with someone and he asked my views on the Iphone - I said I hate it cause you can't do this or that and so on... He told me that you can and he showed me how..

Basically he showed me 7 page of downloaded applications which then enabled him to do the normal things you would do with a Nokia or other similar phone...

Made me hate it even more

So buy a Nokia and sell the iphone to someone else.

Problem solved.




My SO's brother's girlfriend has an iphone since it came out and she's never even hooked it up to itunes and only uses it for the phone, internet and camera and I couldn't figure out why she bought one.

I don't know if I would be able to sell it to someone I like

Got a work blackberry now so will just pick up a cheap nokia for use to make calls...

Why do you like the Iphone so much, what's so special about it in your eyes?

It satisfies my needs.

I use the phone, clock/alarm, ipod, internet, games, calculator and a few apps on a daily basis.
It's painfully easy to use, fits in hand how I like it, the rings are amusing to me, I like the touchscreen and typing, and I like that I can be listening to the ipod and receive calls or send them to vm with little effort. I like how the phone works for me and it's a source of amusement if I'm stuck waiting for someone. Because I like it for me doesn't mean I dislike other phones, it just means I prefer this one. Oddly enough I was going to buy a Blackberry not the iphone, it was an unplanned wth purchase and it worked out for me.
