@Rene I don't know if 17 million didn't "care"...

I see what you are saying, but don't you think some elements were missing? Yeah, Apple didn't need all the basic features for the iPhone to be a huge success...but I kind of did. 

Overall, Lover, not a Hater.

@Truth… you’re too smart for your own good, and too quick! I was going to say the similar but with less big words

All in all, whatever WWDC brings, Im excited to see what comes out of it! New OS? New Hardware? New… who knows. But it’s exciting.

@thekevinmonster

An idiom is a phrase whose meaning cannot be determined by the literal definition of the phrase itself, but refers instead to a figurative meaning that is known only through common use. In linguistics, idioms are widely assumed to be figures of speech that contradict the principle of compositionality; however, this has shown to be a subject of debate.

I'm glad no one has pointed out that light-years are a measure of distance but one year is a measure of time, and that somehow the banner doesn't make sense.

Because it does, and I don't care about MMS so I want to make the comments weight more on the 'about the banner' side.

I’m not being a hater. I like my Iphone but I am not going to act like its some God phone. There are still major issues I have with it: no ability to multitask, lack of memory, terrible camera, ridiculous data plan.

@Truth: They didn’t need it. Year One had multitouch and interface. Year Two had App Store. Everyone else spent 2007-2009 simply catching up (instead of pointing out — hey, no MMS! — cause 17 million people didn’t care).

Now, Year Three, they round out the base features, add to App Store, and intro accessory access.

Game plan was pure Sun Tzu and worked like a charm. Now the challenge will be if Palm Pre, Storm 2, WinPho 7, etc. can actually take the initiative in 2010.

Good thing is we may finally get a competitive smartphone market, and that’s a win for everybody, including Apple, especially consumers.

Be a lover, not a hater
