Your nick says it all. You're an apple fan-boy and feel attacked whenever somebody is not worshipping the Iphone as much as you do.

Typical reaction, but as I hinted in my post I was expecting that...

lol

2)

I am not forced to spend time with each phone available on the market to decide from its specs that it is lacking too many KEY FEATURES for me to buy it. Otherwise I would have to spend time with thousands of phones and sorry, I have a life ;)

3)

I know trying to outline my 'confusion' could lure readers attention away from the POINT, but I will make sure this doesn't happen don't worry.

OK, my bad, it's MMS, not SMS.

Anyway, this is also a key feature which is supposed to be available on thousands of phones you must have 'spent time' with.

How come you don't notice that only the IphoneS are missing that basic feature?

4)

I'm very satisfied with the quality of photos of the Trinity (a phone released in october 2006) I hope the 'revolutionnary' Iphone released in June 2007 can take good photos too, but that was not what I was saying in my post.

You missed the point as always, and it is not your wife's fault. :)

My point is for a phone released in june 2008, supposed to be the following of a revolution, it is ridiculous to have no BETTER RESOLUTION, no AUTO-FOCUS, NO FLASH.

And I was talking about the new Iphone 3G, not your wife's Iphone 1.

5)

No body cares about wether or not you're using video call.

Missing that KEY FEATURE on a 3G phone released in june 2008 is just insulting for customers' brains.

The funniest thing with Apple suporters, is that when the Iphone misses a feature, it's because they 'don't need it'.

(GPS, 3G on Iphone 1, / Video Call, autofocus camera, video recording, copy and paste function etc. on Iphone 2)

But how come once it is available through upgrade, jailbreak etc., they are so happy and grateful... strange contradiction!

6)

Available with jailbreaking?

:D

Were we talking about what we can do with a phone through hacking or about what the GOD-MANUFACTURER allows us to do?

This is not a feature of the Iphone. I respect the Hackers who freed the Iphone from jail, but you can't give those credits to the Iphone itself.

Not to mention you're losing your warranty by doing so...

So this is not a feature of the released Iphone 2, just face it...

7)

OK you missed my point on battery's matter. I knew it: if you're not very specific, a disapointed fan will try to confuse readers about your says...

I was pointing out the fact that on the Iphone 1 and Iphone 2, the battery is LOCKED (as in jail again) in the phone.

If you want to change it, remove it, or even look at it (even that seems to be asking to much...) you must resend the phone to Apple, and accept their price for the battery itself, and the replacement.

A price that the manufacturer decides, without any competitors on this specific replacement service, so guess if they will be keen to keep that price low...

8)

Comparing Jailbreaking to WM6.1 on Trinity is your right, but there is no relation with what I was saying.

Once again (it's getting tiring to avoid that your anachronysm confuse readers) it was about comparing original features in phones released this summer. Iphone 3G and competitors.

Of course you have to hack Trinity for wm6.1 a system which didn't even exist by the time Trinity was released.

But I don't see why for god sake somebody should be forced to hack and by doing so messing with is warranty on a new phone, just to benefit from features like video and the freedom of installing third party free softwares which don't come from Apple online stores and its high tarification.

This is a basic right, it's just that Iphone buyers seem to be used to be deprived of basic rights...

9)

Last but not least, intuitivity of a phone is something personal, just as for a car or anything else.

Some prefers BMW, some Toyota, you can't make and objective measuring of the absolute intuitivity.

On this point, there is no need to argue since it's a matter of taste, and I did not argue on this.

I just said that:

A phone like Iphone 3G released in June 2008, supposed to be revolutionary like all Apple products but missing a BUNCH of Keyfeatures (and I did not even mention FM Radio etc.), doesn't worth it according to me.

But I agree that some (fan-boys?) can be happy to pay high price for a LOCKED phone (until you free it from JAIL, I know, and lose your warranty) for poor features and become a hostage of Apple store for:

battery

softs and games

and even ringtones...

:rolleyes:
