Re: Any one else ?

Apple plainly puts out commercials where it aimed at business users. It obviously is not suited to those users that are heavily tied to linux and MS platforms.

Which part of "business user" did you not understand?
The part where Apple stated it was a business phone.

I believe he's using the term "toy" like you would use for a plasma TV. "Look at my new 50 inch Toy".

And in that case, he's absolutely correct.

Ok where to start ?

Can't load an exchange web panel from its wifi or even on its cell web.

The wifi doesn't support radius so as to actually secure the tunnel.

Can't run a vpn app from the handheld since they locked it down. So much for security.
This is all stuff a normal user would not be doing on their phone.

For awhile it was flooding our cisco AP's off the network and killed almost all wireless use for most workers.
This was an issue with Cisco as the university that was complaining of the same issue discovered.

At&t's network coverage sucks.
If you're referring to coverage as in areas where they offer coverage then I agree some places will not have good coverage. Otherwise, if by coverage you mean signal strength in an area then I wonder why at&t is the #1 provider in terms of subscribers.

The touch screen has to be unlocked to answer the phone ! Why ?
It does not need to be unlocked to answer the phone. If that were the case you would need to unlock the phone and then pick up the call. Instead you just swipe your finger across to the screen to pick up the call.

said by BosstonesOwn See Profile :

I am anything but a fanboi , I am fair and balanced and feel that each phone has it's role. This one has it's role as a toy phone.
If it was a toy then it would not actually make any calls and it would be made entirely out of plastic.
