It's cool to be able to say that you got it...but if you need it to do your stuff then the GUI is seriously flawed.

I'm confused, didn't you jailbreak your iPhone? If not, there's no need for you to read further. But if you did, why? Was something seriously flawed? Or does jailbreaking just give you partial access to your OS?

Guess I should had given examples but I also made the assumption most people here would know how to Google for what changes after your phone is jailbroken - and no, as stated multiple times, for me it was not about access to pirated software.

a) How much more direct than this do you want?

b) I said "If my son did that..." In reality I think he'd be incredibly grateful if anybody bought him a €500 device for his Birthday, and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't want to sell it after a week - might come across as being ungrateful.

Enjoy your Iphone.

Strange to even bother register and posting your opinions here on maemo.org since you obviously don´t even know how to use the N900 and see the potential.

The Iphone is probably the most basic phone around for people that "just want a easy, funny phone"

Personally i kind of like browsing real web pages instead of having ******ed apps to even be able to watch facebook since safari certainly does it´s best to destroy web content.

The majority on this forum and the early adopters of the N900 isn´t interested in Iphones or their feeble minded users comments, but as an early poster stated: Hope you bought a flame suit to be able to read your posts response...

Now go and rub something against your capacitive Iphone screen, hope your phone wears protection.

uldn't want to sell it after a week - might come across as being ungrateful.

a) Not sure how much more clear my original post could be,

b) 'Ungrateful'? Yeah, it does seem as if the two of you have some areas to work through. Just don't put it off too long.

I hope you see the irony in your post.

Woosh.

Your dad played a joke on you, and you didn't get that either.

Idiot.
