if not, I'm now extremely confused,

I didn't even see your post... oops. One caret per level up you'd need to go from my post to the one I was addressing.

Hope that clears things up.

God the Nokia n95 and Nokia n96 were great no erratic touchscreen with all of the functionality you could ever want. On a side not I do prefer physical buttons and Navigation keys but I can use a touchscreen just fine.

And I don't mean that in a harsh way. Just that why do people feel like they just have to compare one to another and not on equal terms... or terms that even really matter?

I've met folks like that... tell me their excitement to be in such a walled garden and enjoying it. I don't like it. I guess I don't have that urge to fit in as much as an iSheep, nor as a so-called FOSS fanatic either. They're just different herds with different types of leaders.

It's still a herd.

Wow, I do sound bitter.

Lol yeah but I just hate how stupid some Iphone fanboys are like. They Know nothing with regard to the Phone capability and the restriction, nor open minded about other devices that are better than the iphone. It is like they've been brain washed and abducted by some aliens from an Apple Iphone planet.

I felt sorry for them. Only the clever one stay true and admit. My colleagues are truely Apple people (AKA we are the computer technician and apple based department lol) but yet they are not standing behind the iPhone lol. Yet he said yes iPhone have a lot of restriction and he has to apply for a certification just to write software on it. And my other colleague planning to get Iphone4 and then dual boot with Android :D. they all did played with my phone and I got a comment "Man, what can this phone not do?, this phone is so much opened and very computer like "

Re: Apple fanboys In The Press Are Starting to Piss Me Off

So, Adobe Flash was selected to deliver an ~~article~~ slideshow on the superiority of iOS4 for every device? Satire then?

Re: Apple fanboys In The Press Are Starting to Piss Me Off

oh men.. u miss my alarm clock for 11th place...i would like to see iOS 4 on it... something that will slap me on face instead of a "phone ring" sound... *lol*

Re: Apple fanboys In The Press Are Starting to Piss Me Off

haha great point, love it. I met someone with an iPad today.. Asked them how well flash worked and they mentioned it being a power-hog in a rather angry tone X)

Re: Apple fanboys In The Press Are Starting to Piss Me Off

The article is gay and vague and very stupid. It's like a cow on steriod, hyped about how iOS4 is the greatest shiit in the world. What a bunch of loser trying to make a living by praising a giant Apple to gain a buck.

When press gets excited over the most ground braking feature drum roll please wallpapers seriously it took four generations of the iPhone os to get wallpaper? That in my opinion is just pathetic. Or when the press hypes how Apple devices do multitasking when it isn't actually multitasking.

Re: Apple fanboys In The Press Are Starting to Piss Me Off

The article the OP was about is complete nonsense, no arguing about that. The same author, Don Reisinger, posted today another nonsense article on SlashGear: http://www.slashgear.com/why-im-buyi...le-tv-3092114/

Clearly, some people get paid to praise Apple in the media.

Re: Apple fanboys In The Press Are Starting to Piss Me Off

Apple fanboys in press nothing new. I wish Nokia will get the same break Apple gets when it drops the ball. Many in this site are always quick to extol Apple as an example Nokia should follow as if ITunes lousy update is match for Nokia OTA update. Perhaps Nokia should adopt a fruit logo. Mango?
