Maybe when you sell people iPhones you should show them how to use them, the there's the great free offer Vodafone Australia is running now they just extended it from 31/10 to 31/12.

Pretty much every one I sell I give people a few tips to get them started, the iPhone is the dominant web browsing smartphone.

      The discussion was about USB and data conectivity.
      Now you turn it to headsets???
      HTC uses standard 3.5 mm JACK and noone cares about jack in the BT stereo age but YOU because iPhone can't handle AVCRP right!

      I don't care what prizes apple has.
      Just google "The iPhone is the worst phone in the world" and see how an unpaid article looks like.
      Doubt anyone ever won a worst phone award.

      So what? do you imagine this forum was made for you to express your love towards the iPhone?

      This forum was made for objective reviewing.
      Iphone does not have the features described on that list: http://docs.google.com/View?docID=0AQXDk-yFHZEYZGQ0OXB4cHpfMGZ6ODlobWNo&revision=_latest&hgd=1

      You don't need them, others do. Or are you afraid it will affect the "HUUUGE" sales apple has?

        How many people have to explain it to you so that it may enter your thick head?

        And who cares what nokia fires on the iPhone forum, especially when apple fires 30.000.

        As for articles, articles are often paid by apple that admmited to invest 500 million in advertising.

        That guy posted it clearley. You're a media controlled iSheep with no mind of it's own.

          Does it really matter which phone has more users? Alot of people who own iPhones don't use them for smartphone purposes. So many people I've had come into our store and ask about iPhones, only to add that they only use their phones for calls and texts. They are the most popular phone out there at the moment, possibly because it's so marketable and appealing to all age groups. It's a trend, just like yo-yos and marbles were years ago.

          People seem to be forgetting that all they are is an iPod Touch that can call.

                Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970You are wrong. Photos and videos don't get organized automatically on symbian devices. You have to set it up first. Sometimes it asks you if you want to save it to internal memory or card. How could you forget that? And the more you save photos and videos on the card, the more sluggish the phone performs. I know because I had thr N95, and that carousel gets slower and slower the more files I store in it. So please. And it's never 1 click. Liar :)

                oh my gosh, you are so dumb to think that I am p%nm. Just proves how silly you are.

                Htc headset cables are proprietary dummy. I said cables, not just specifically usb.

                You have poor comprehension. There seem to have few changes between all iphone models because all of them benefit on all software updates. That was the point. Other phone makers don't have that benefit.

                You're expectations do not make sense and is utterly dumb :)

                  And who said that we only see part of the web? We have desktop web experience with the iphone. You know nothing :) Apple does not fire 30.000 employees a year. It's nokia who fired like 490.000 employees due to losses :)

                  And people don't come here to read your hateful comments and all the lies and BS that you write about the iphone birdbrain :)

                  Well whether you're a poor homeless thief who watches movies and shows from a phone that you've stolen, or simply silly, we don't give a hoot to your dumb lifestyle because we watch movies either in a movie theater, or our hdtv sets at home, not our phones like you do, hahahaha

                  That list is a silly as you are and no one, except your other buddy haters, would believe it.

                  Keep posting, and I'll keep pointing out how dumb and a big liar you are :)

                    And those 70 features link that you keep posting is a bunch of bull :) Really silly.

                    The iphone has a lot of things, that's why it outsold all smartphones :) Which made you really mad, hahahaha. It even made more profit than Nokia, which made you more upset, hahahaha. My iphone is the bestselling smartphone. While whatever your phone is, its a loser, just like you, hahahaha.

Sometimes you even have to utilize a file manager to organize music and photos. Again, we were symbian and winmo users before we became iphone users, so we know what it's like to deal with memory cards.

                      And those differences are major upgrades. Why what were you expecting? Again, if the 3.0 upgrade is not shared accross all model, there would be more differences between the 3 models. But that's the great thing about the iphone. Tell us, can the n95 and n96 make use of the upgrades for the n97? Lol. No wonder.

                      Oh how about htc devices? Some of their devices come with their own propriety cables. So I guess it's not just the iphone like you make it seem to be. You're dumb :)

                      Phones back in 2006 were not used the way phones are used now as far as the internet is concerned. Unless you tell us that web browsing back in 2006 on cell phones is the same as today's. Please answer :)

                        Yes it's that easy and photos appear just like they would be on the internal memory, because the card is read as an internal momory.

                        No, all the other manufacturers but apple and sony, but even sony has micro usb on the xperia models.

                        Flash. Phones as old as 2006 use flash and are able to view in-browser videos. As noone hacked that flash yet, your just another lame excuse of mother nature.

Did you write the OS? I think you're being too bold in making such statements when you haven't personally created any OS, for you to make statements like that. And why wouldn't the next iphone not improve? You have to consider that with every software upgrade on the iphone, all iphones take advantage of it, which would naturally narrow down the gap between models on the software side.

                          You're just a bitter loser :)

                            not allow 3rd party proprietary plug ins like flash. It's only a matter of time when hackers would actively exploit flash on mobile phones to steal information.

                            Oh please stop. Iphone users have used phones in the past with memory cards, so we know how cumbersome it can be. With iphone, it's just one tap on the photos app and all your photos appear. Can you do the same when you're accessing external memory card?

                            The iphone has tons of media apps specifically designed for the iphone for optimum performance. Now why would I bother with media sites on the web?!

                            If I want stereo speakers, i would go to my car or listen to my sound system at home, NOT MY CELLPHONE. or any cellphone.

                                      You only prove to be a sputid kid ranting pointlessly in the iphone topic about technologies you now nothing about.

                                      Noone bothers to hack your phone trough flash since any phone has a totally different system than the much exployted windows 98 or XP.

                                      Using and searching on a sdhc card is just as easy as doing it on any internal memory + you have the advantage to exchange files on the go with any system with something like this on your keychain.

                                      Bottom line iphone can't handle almost any media sites on the web while symbian, winmo and droid(coming soon) can.
                                      Most phones have stereo speakers, iPhone sounds like a sewer except trough headset where all phones do decent (v.good+sewer vs. good+good, get it? .
                                      All phones can be directly accesed through usb, you need special cables and iTunes.

                                      Will make sure to post it later.
