huh I’m 21 and your point is???….i’m still unsure of what you’re trying to get at. Are you stuck in the 18th century under a rock? you must be if you didnt know girls liked gadgets ….our cell phones are just as important as any accessory.

We get it the iPhone wasn’t the first tondo anything move on. I was a long time windows of user and windows mobile/blackberry addict. I have no hate for those products. I recently jumped ship to apple for one reason their products work and the work the way I want. People go around spending hundreds of dollars on the next big thing breaking contracts buying handsets all because if hype. I have a dozen friends that had blackberry curves ran out to get the storm only to be crushed. Just buy what fits you and your lifstyle stop worrying about whose a “fanboy” because they defend a good product. Who cares in one year a cooler phone will be anounced and again and again as long as I got my iPod and phone in one I will never jump ship those are my only two concerns. If you want to be connected to as many people as humanly possible all at once get the pre

What's up with you guys?

The iPhone is a very fine piece of technology. In fact, I'd go as far as to say it's the best handheld converged computing and telecommunications device I have ever used (and I've tried a few).

But, and here's why I am seriously questioning your intellectual capacity, most of what it does has been done before, by other handsets.

The first touch screen only smartphone I owned was the Qtek 1010, built by HTC in 2002, running MS Pocket PC Phone Edition. In 2004, the 1010 was replaced by the Qtek S100, also a touch screen device running a Microsoft OS.

Most of what the iPhone can do was available on Mirosoft phone devices in 2002. It didn't look nearly as good or perform nearly as well, but most of the basic functionality was there. Apple even licensed the abysmal Exchange mobile push technology in favor of using the more robust, less battery draining open source solution of IMAP Idle.

And there are loads of things that MS devices have been doing for years that the iPhone just fails to perform. Like copy-paste, video calls, A2DP, BT contact beaming.

The capacative touch screen, the responsiveness and usability of the interface, and the simplistic design makes the iPhone a remarkable device that I feel no desire to replace with any of the current "competitors". But apart from that, it does not do anything out of the ordinary.

as a gadget lover the PRE looks awesome to me!! but i will not be buying it because i am an iphone fanatic. One of my bosses has been looking for a good alternative for the iphone on the SPRINT side(where the companys fleet is) and this looks like it will be it and all I can say is I wont hate setting it up for him .

@Jeffdc5: Its called “jealousy and bitterness.”

They’d rather just continue suffering than admit defeat. Since we don’t have that problem, we never visit their sites because we’re not interested in anything they have… but they ARE interested in what we have.

The Pre will suck, of course, like everything else not made by Apple.

Poor baztards.

Why do iPhone batters troll this site so much if the iPhone is so horrible let it fail on it’s own. The pre better be damn good the way people are hyping it up

Here's an apple. We're going to compare it to our orange. Shine on you crazy fanboys, shine on.

Let's just look at several things the Iphone wasn't first to do and claim others who do them are ripping off Iphone ideas.

Best of luck with all your fapping.
