uh... okay i dont mind ipods i've owned three.

oh and this may be slightly offensive

i now own a cowon a2... better unit if your really into video. all phones are generally exclusive to a network for a year... see razr.

i dont think its wrong to be a fan of something. wtf... i do know that if you view being a fan, or fanboy about something lame its sadder to be a harrasive post troller.

as to the iphone and price... uh... oooooookay.
music player just plays music and some video on tiny screen... 250 dollars.
phone worth anything 250-300. this is personal for me anyway, i've been through tons of phones and all i can say is you pay for what you get and windows mobile sucks.
thats about 550... for me to have the equivalent of the universal remote collection at your grandmas house in my pockets. a zune phone will be priced comparatively for sure, as is the zune. which is also not a bad music player and i;d check that phone out tooo..

I'm a technology fanboy and you can... well.. if you dont like it.

give me a linux based phone please, in the meantine i will take the the unix based mac os 10 iphone.

oh and to that one guy obesessively complaining about one handed use and voice dialing. i never use it. oh... wait... consumers differ... huh... how about that... oh and ONE HANDED DIALING? your either punchin your lovlies or driving while talking without using a headset thanks for the insurance checks from that wreck your gonna have. i've seen your type at walmart, thin sheen of sweat, screaming into your phone while palming it like a handful of stripper dollars.
