How freakin’ stupid do you have to be to claim that the contract is onerous and then say that you’re switching to a phone with the same contract?

8525 is a great phone. But it is essentially a bunch of cool hardware features thrown together along with a hideous windows environment where usability certainly takes a back seat.

It's the best phone I've owned and it has also replaced my 4GB Nano. I bought the 8GB model. Don't let a few geeks like this guy disuade you. The iPhone rocks and it gets better day by day as new apps are released. This guy had a bias against th iPhone before it even shipped. His being a writer for a PC magazine tells me all I need to know. Just some FUD from a Apple hater.</p> The iPhone meets all my needs and more.

The best thing to do is wait until u get it in ur hands (or at least go see it at the Apple Store) to make a decision on whether or not u should buy it. There are alot of haters out there. Plus this article was written in PC World magazine LOL. They might be just a tad bit one sided on the argument.</p> The iPhone is great.
