      Hi all, I came on here to see if anyone has posted a review on how the new OS is going. But all I can see phone bashing. Everybody has their favourite phone and OS for meny different reasons. I at the moment am using the Nexus One,Had the Samsumg HD,Had iPhones before. I like them all. I think it's really pointless to come on and bash phones. You may have your reasons but I thought the point of these forums were to help others?? I for one am considering returning to iPhone because I like how it works,It's easy to use. Yes I am sure it may have it's issues but all phones have issues. I don't run down any phone as to me it does not help the next person who may love it. I think some of you should simply grow and get a life. If you hate the iPhone then don't waist everyones time and come here and carry on like a peanut,stick your own prefered phone and OS.

        I really dun get it at all!

        Why do you ppl come to ONLY bash Apple?
        Stick with your phones, be happy with them!

        If iPhone's users are happy with it, why do you are not with your phones?
        Gosh, let ppl be happy with their iPhones.

        This "my phone is better than yours" fight is the dumbest ever...

              Pirate_my_4ss, 10 Apr 2010@Pirate, I wasnt going to answer this topic, until I saw... moreListen 4ss I'm with u on the old phones but they didn't have their own OS back then that's why they weren't intrested to start with plus since 4 years or more they've been developing the new Bada OS which is a 100% samsung and which will be supported fully by them unlike the old phones they had e.g. Symbian, win month, and recently android, which was their reason to develop their own OS cause they thought all platforms are not worth it to start with, and they couldn't stop manufactring phones that's why their support was bad cause their interest waas their own OS that they were working on ! I'm a 100% with u on the old phones.. U should read more before u reply 4ss ! See how much they spent on the OS that they developed and how much on the fone they made and its the first fone featuring their OWN OS which is Bada, u think they won't support it ? Go read and check before u comment !

How can someone like you who do not own one say that it is? Lol. The iphone offers more functionality than you think. Please do not limit functionality to bt file transfer and 5mp camera, lol. There's nothing embarassing with the iphone's multitasking approach. It gives the same results using less power with optimum performance. Stop bragging about flash support as if it works smoothly on your phone. Most of the time it's so frustrating, and it just compromises performance. You are actually the evil one, spreading hate and bitterness in here :)

I bet you that the next gen iphone would still sell very well, and we'll see who would be laughing more. It's funny that you only saw the background feature and miss to see the other wonderful features that's coming with iphone 4.0. Also, why mock it's multitasking implementation? I think it's a very efficient approach since multitasking indeed will drain battery life faster. I don't see anything wrong with it's multitasking.

In fact, 2G owners from years ago are STILL getting updates for their phone. Nokia devices are cheaper, but the extra money we pay for the "overpriced iphone" is more than made up for with updates that work, and have no bugs."

                      Even with all these updates, Nokias still crappy.
                      My girlfriend's 5800 got the v40 update, and still auto deleting SMS and themes.

                        Its funny how such a useless and out of date produkt still can find lojal supporters who willingly spends a small fortune on it. Iphone is only a "fashion-produkt" that looks good but offers less funktionality than most of the competitors produkts. Multitasking is not a revolutionary new thing, and it should be embarrassing for Nokia, HTC or Samsung to make such a big deal of offering it this late, and not supporting flash in the browser is even worse and totaly anti-customerfriendly.
                        Apple is even worse, more evil, than Microsoft ever was.

                            ..I really like the iphone, but I'm thinking ahead now. I know that other phones will catch up with the display awesomeness that Apple have given us, and that Android and WinMo will eventually have some great app stores. I'm already planning my next purchase. If you have owned an iphone and loved it, what would you upgrade to next if the iphone 4 doesn't match your expectations? Android or Symbian?

                              But a lot of people like it, and we think that we have good reasons to like it. What is special to us is obviously trash to you. So would you think that it would be smart for a smart person like you to not even bother with Apple articles and users? :)

It does what it's supposed to do and I don't think that's useless.

                                  As for calling the iphone a 'luxury device', it's like calling the kid at school that chases invisable aliens special!
