Uncool no Divx support like Sameungs and LG's.
Even Blackberries have Divx support.
Come to think of it the Blackberry Storm is way better than this!

- the almighty brand has been paying substantial subsidies to various phone operators, so they can offer $0 handsets to subscribers....
- the almighty brand has been paying substantial commission to front line sales / shops, so whenever a customer walks into a shop with absolutely no idea what phone to buy, the ONLY brand the salesperson would mention is the almighty one
I think a good majority (at least over 60%, if not 90%) of iphone owners "really wanted" to buy the phone...

[deleted post]470,000,000 people bought Nokia phones last year and the 16,000,000 bought iPhone's are the sheep.
What a joke, there are millions of people who will buy any old junk as long as it's got the Nokia name and they will not consider anything else, they are the sheep.

Frank Snotra, 04 Mar 2009Maybe you will read this and try to understand another view... moreI'm obviously not stupid i understand everything that you people state,say or mention but
if everyone that has an Apple product says the samething how is that thinking out the box
i can still Edit and make wicked,videos,music and fix pictures with Windows but people think that Apple works much better cause the Movie,music industy heavely use it and same with photographers
and the fact that Unix(OSx) is RAM driven just like Linux obviously it would run faster

Kyuubi, 04 Mar 2009Yea i noticed but alot of people here can't think out the b... moreMaybe you will read this and try to understand another viewpoint instead of just reacting.
Different machines are used for different purposes for a variety of reasons. The fact that businesses use Windows machines is typically a factor of the available software rather than the fact that "they secluded themselves". Excel works best in the Windows environment so clearly, it makes sense for businesses to use windows based pc's.
However, in the arts (no creativity here, right kyuubi?), like publishing, movies and digital photography, Apple is most common, again since the key tools, like Photoshop and Illustrator, Final Cut or InDesign, outperform pc's in these tools.
Again, i only find this necessary to point out thes facts because you appear to be so hung up on brand loyalty and have drawn so many poor conclusions due to that loyalty. i hope i can make you just think clearly (in or out of the box) for a few minutes and see that many people behave for a reason and are not the brainless followers as you seem to imply regularly.

[deleted post]First of all, I believe different people have different talents, who should be well respected and NOT be callled / labeled as dumb.
Just because one may not be able to manage a "Smartphone", such as "install a software so the alarm clock can play MP3 ringtone" (the case for Windows Mobile, instead of go to the alarm setting and simply choose a ringtone on "regular" non-smart phone), doesn't necessary make one dump or smart.
For the celebrities, they may not be as brilliant with smartphones than others (who probably spend hours everyday on tech stuff), though that doesn't mean they are not smart. At least they're smart enough to fully utilize the talents they've, so they can earn enough $ to have "someone else" to do the job for them.
As smart as a phone can be, it probably can't read off a (hand written?) script from another human being, memorize it, and play it back with the related action (be that being happiness, sorrow, fighting, etc…) like celebrities can.
Don't know if you ever "act", though in my last year MBA project, our presentation had to be made on a video which lasted 20 mins. The 20 mins video took my group at least 6 hours to take all the shots, with "days" in terms of editing! Hence I don't think I can call celebrities being "dumb" if I can't perform the same task as good as they can.
Personally I think I can manage Windows Mobile if I spend a few hours behind some books like "Windows Mobile for Dummies", however, I doubt I can manage how to play a guitar or piano or any music instrument in days, weeks, if not years to come. Does that make me smart or dumb?
Or else, if celebrities are really being so dumb, why do people still listen to their songs or watch their movies? Are they being dumb as well?
How about the wealthiest person in HK (certainly top 50 in the world)? He only received primary school education....he probably doesn't manage his tasks through his PDA phone...instead, he simply hired someone else to get him what he wants with his "voice command" like "Get me the latest stock price / sales data...." so he can make the swift decision. Does the phone he uses...really for communication (for voice command?) make him smart or dumb?
If simplification makes people getting dummer…should we all go back to use the DOS O/S? Where a simple task like copying a disk/file requires dozens of typing (copy c: to d: or whatever….even I'm too young to remember!) instead of simply dragging the icon? If so, did MS Bill made all of us dummer by copying Apple's GUI? (The reason I don't know DOS is because when I was learning computer, Mac just came out and I learned how to operate a Mac without any manual)
Some people have the time and luxury to "explore" the different things on a (smart) phone, while others may not. For myself, I already spend 10 hours a day at work (especially under current situation), 3 hours on the commute (which I prefer to get some more sleep), some good hours with my family (for dinner), leaving me about no more than an hour on the Internet, which include chatting on a private forum with my friends, reading other forums of my hobby and get the latest news, plus some e-mail checking. There goes my hours for the day! I do not have the "luxury" to explore so much on my Windows Mobile.
No, I don't even use iphone, as "relatively speaking", my Moto E6 running on Linux with external memory card works much simpler. Copy the song to the memory card….create playlist-> select folder or particular songs, rename the playlist, save! 5 steps only! No itune, no additional software!
Maybe some other people would like to spend the rest of the time "exploring" how things can work (better), though I'd much rather save some time "exploring" by giving a good hug to my lovely half….who always gives me a good smile everyday after work….something no smartphone can ever accomplish.
