whats your point, your phone is probably a piece of crap. It was free afterall. I don't know why you are even comparing your crap free phone with the iPhone

Plays every film format (except DVD but that'd be silly carting disc's around)
Games with psx like graphics
Mini SD cards (cheap)
Mp3/WMA files
Good qual camera (films to)
It wasn't free for the bloke that had it last (£200)(hes got one of them lobster phones that he hates)

And dont triple post the edit buttons there for a reason

here too... Did apple do a Microsoft on Jeff???

I have cingular and i prefer a WM5 devices so that i can run all my apps (Word, Excel, PP) - go ahead M$ haters - flame.....

Well, if you won't flame him then I will, though not for the reason he thinks.

Source

It just kills me when people say I stick with Windoz because I know my apps will work. The truth is, Macs can run about three times as many apps as WindozXp because with the new intel macs, they run all three major operating systems (Windows, Linux, and of course, Mac OS X) either natively via Boot Camp, or all at the same time via Parallels Desktop.

As for running these on a smart-phone or the iPhone, while Word and PowerPoint might be nice (although Apple's iWork Suite which includes a better word processor and powerpoint app and soon, there will be a spreadsheet app as well), why would you ever want to use Excel on one?

I honestly don't know why people hate Cingular as much as they do. I've used:

Verizon
Nextel
AT&T
Suncom
Alltel
Sprint

And now Cingular for the last 3 years. To be honest, the service i've had with Cingular vs. the rest of those has been bar-none better. I'm sure people have had worse luck than I have, but honestly ... Cingular is by far the largest subscriber and most popular. I don't know what makes some people hate them.

For your information; though, truth be told, it's none of your business nor my job to explain how one goes about getting a job and earning some money; far be it from me to resist bashing some dumbass; I could easily afford three of the stupid phones. Easily.

Ignorance: It makes smart people feel better about themselves.
