List reasons as to why the iPhone sucks.

yeah, fair enough. but tactile feedback seems like somethings thats been faded out with personl gadgets at the moment. you may have to be getting used to it.

Ahahahahahahaha, that's fucking retarded. Why not make it a slot or something?
 
Eh? I don't really think it's THAT much of an overpay when you consider it certain ways. Is it a bargain? No. But look at the Nokia 8800. That thing made the iPhone look like it's cutting edge and inexpensive in every way possible, and idiots like fr0ng dropped trou and took it in the ass to get one.

No 3g, no keyboard, no third party apps, limited battery life on a sealed in battery, etc. It's a novel concept, and at 300-400, i might buy one to fuck around with, then ebay, but it doesn't have much to offer for the money.
 
Depends how you look at it. The Click Wheel on the iPod is widely regarded as one of the best HCI interfaces on a portable device, and to see Apple spit something out that doesn't use it scares the hell out of me. There's a reason the 3rd generation iPod was the ONLY iPod to use touch-sensitive bits on it? they suck to use without looking.
 
true. but you cant argue that the iphone is a bold (if flawed) piece of technology. price excluded, its a huge risk for the company and it still looks/sounds pretty fucking sweet. i still wouldnt say no to one.
 
seriously thoughtless and downright stupid replies in this thread....

till you try it out dont go saying shit about it being a novelty.

The reason people hate on apple is cuz apple takes these simple tasks and techniques and puts em high on a pedastal.

But what they do differently from everyone else is THEY MAKE IT FUCKIN ENJOYABLE AND FUN TO DO

yeah it doesnt have all these other features but simplicity is what makes something fun to use.

How many fuckin people wanna throw their cellphones up against a wall because they gotta climb through 11ty billion menus or cllick a bunch of "softkeys" designed for the task

Apple gets hated on for giving people something simple and easy to use, and then pple point out "oh well this phone has had it for year etc etc" Well no shit other phones hav had it for years but when was the last time anyone had fun USING A CONSUMER PRODUCT?

the iphone is a fun phone to actually use...flicking pages...double tapping zoom...SUPER FUCKIN INTELLIGENT SPELLCHECKER integrated with the keyboard...litterally make as many typos as u can and it still ends up correcting the word to what you wanted to type.

you pick up the iphone and in all seriousness it;s design and ui and ease of use is a breath of fresh air compared to anything on the market

ITS A FUN PRODUCT.
