iPhone status symbol

A few toilet cleaners in my office have iPhones. The ordinary people couldn't careless how technically advanced other phones are, they only ever hear from their mates about iPhones.

Oh dear

Can I

install any crapware I wrote without requiring some shitty permissions from Nokia?

Simple

What's Welsh for "cum"? Why not use that instead of .cym?

All evil

Java is evil and owns by the devil.

Google deserves to be kicked in the balls for using Java.

Another day

and another cause of human misery inflicted by Apple and fanbois. Enough to make you want to buy Windows 7 gadgets.

that Jobs did this. Java is a piece of crap! Now that Oracle gotten involved, things will just going to get worst still.

Unhappy

We're all...

involved in this human misery everytime we buy a new shiny gadget.

Soon or later karma will get to us all.

Unhappy

Oh no...

I'm depressed now. I feel that I'm somehow being part of it as I buy these gadgets.

Oh well, I'm sure similar fate awaits me in the next life.

@I avoid

You are assuming that we all lived in a democratic country like yours and where your police forces are whiter than white.

@A mad world

Do you know much it costs to reside a judge in his/her mansion?

Apple had to ...

give in because developers are taking your skills to other platforms. Don't be fooled by the sudden change of heart on the part of Steve. He sees the challenges from Android and such like, and by lettings these 'new' apps onto the store Steve can boast that there are more apps in his store than others.

Backup

Why doesn't Sony provide some sort of backup util for the games?

hmmmm

Why do people use jailbroken phones?

If people like it soooo much, why don't they use it as is.

I made the mistake of getting an iphone. I'll never do it again and as soon as my contract is over it'll be on ebay.

Isn't using a jailbroken phone also directly supporting the manufacturer's revenue stream?

x phones shifted is y dollars gained regardless of how they are used.

I suspect the people who use jailbroken phones are closet fanbois.

Ever wondered why an abused wife/girlfriend goes back to their man?

1.5

Why released a 1.5 now?

WinMo

Stopped reading.

Stay Away From Android!

If there is no control and vetting of apps then stay away from the platform.

I'm sticking to the walled garden, at least I'm protected from 3rd party collection/hacking.

Wang N Staines

OK

Stopped reading after the word Windows!!!!

Maybe

Maybe this issue is related to the fact why Apple wanted the FCC to with delayed the publishing of some documents relating to the iPhone4.

Less evil

Google is now officially less evil than the Apple & MS!

:)

Wang N Staines

Perfect

I would definitely get one of those dual SIM. I currently carry 2 phones, one for work related and another for one everything else. Would definitely put my white iPhone on ebay when this these arrived.

Oh Dear...

The US Patent System is broken.

hmmm

I wonder if recently tied up with MS had given HTC some strength to fight back.

Wang N Staines

Why...

are Apple so crap with hardware related stuff?

I remember every product that they released, there are always issues with them - from the iMacs to iPhones to iPad.

Is it because they spent 99% of their time on UI and neglected the hardware?

I got a white iPhone, only because I was told it's a chick magnet. Yes, it does make me look gay.

Wang N Staines

Simple

Get a new job!

Wang N Staines

Am I right...

in saying that the US has better judicial system than the UK? It seems that the British Government are bending backward to send their citizens over there.

Wang N Staines

Come on...

These are chicks magnet!

HTC are cowards

Those Chinese guys got very small balls.

Apple part owns a police force.

Works for me...

I was just thinking about this the other day.

A few months ago I was just a sad geeky guy who had the personality of a computer programmer. No girls would talk or give me a second look. Then I got an iphone, and what do you know... I had a few girls starting to converse with me on public transports.

They always start by asking the same question, are you gay?

I think this is because I got the white iphone.

Anyway, that a good start for me. It allows me to show off the apps I bought etc...
