Yes, I'm a Loser

So the question is...do you like it now that you've bought it, innova? If not you can always sell the thing for like, a thousand bucks on craigslist.

If you actually read this you can see it's a "for instance". Where's the past tense here? Did I say anywhere that this ACTUALLY happened? Wait, there's more.

Once I rolled back all the updates my videos worked again. So yeah, that's shady.

If you use your eyes you can see there it says "in reality". That's because it REALLY DID HAPPEN. Just because something didn't happen to you doesn't mean it didn't happen buddy. Some of you guys disgust me. Flaming for the sake of flaming. Well here it is.

Whoever it was at Apple that is responsible for that retarded feature should be put to death. I've always thought that was the most brain-dead design decision of anything on Earth.

I cherish it everyday at work, and curse Vista at home every fucking day.

Vista is ass. I prefer XP service pack 2, myself.

This thread is glorious.

Well, as I said we are getting these to evaluate (we are a big provider to apple) the first guy got one a week ago, here was his feedback.

Can't wait.....

two hours? It took me all of about 5 minutes to get everything synced and it all worked perfectly. It is launch, and some people are going to have more trouble than others.

i have enjoyed it a lot, its def a neat little toy. there are some features missing, which are basic and should have been included, but i have faith apple will include these in future updates. edge speed isnt really that bad, granted its not as quick as my vzw blackberry but its still pretty quick. battery life has been great so far, and i enjoy the fact that i can watch tv shows on it. email is amazing on this thing, granted its crippled exchange but it still works. so far i love it a lot, and i am glad i got it, and thats coming from a blackberry on verizons evdo network. and the screen is simply stunning, its extremely crisp and the thing is built extremely well, i love it, can't wait till more features are added.

I think that looks pretty cool. I would probably buy it. :tu:

Like? The OS has cute little graphical transitions, the browse by cover-art music library search is cool, but been done before (just not on a phone).

Google maps? Had it on my windows smartphone for 2 years now. The Browser? OperaMini does it just as well, if not better. Hell it supports flash on some devices, while the iPhone doesn't. Email? Use a blackberry and see what mobile e-mail should be.

Visual Voicemail? Well, I suppose there is something neat there but hardly worth the price of admission.

You will soon be able to get 6 and 8 GB microSD cards. Phones that play mp3s are about as common as ones with cameras in them. And most importantly, they actually have a dialpad you can access in less than 4 button presses.

The iPhone is typical Apple. Amazingly polished interface, overpriced and over hyped. And.... HOW AND THE FUCK DO YOU BUILD A MUSIC PHONE IN 2007 AND NOT SUPPORT STEREO BLUETOOTH?!?!


Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. Seems the iPhone is exempt from AT&Ts return policies. So if you buy it and don't like it.... 10% restocking fee.

Hubbitron may have lied, but I swear I have a few mp3s that iTunes completely ignores that I keep in a seperate folder and play in Quicktime and it's bullshit.
