Ooh, yeah. That's gonna mess your system up. And wow, what a psycho.

Yeah, "hers at her convenience", right?Mark wrote:Talk about aggrevation. My estranged other half got out of jail again where she learned that the gal she wanted to leave me for was using her. She reached out and felt me up right out front of my job and said "still mine".
I exploded. (Not in a good way either)
I've had the same problem in the past. They sure don't like to hear the word "no", do they?Mark wrote:Exactly.....at least until she doesn't need anything anymore.
Of course not. She probably likes knowing that you're around in case she needs you. Women like security, you know.Mark wrote:And she doesn't accept that I'm trying to move on either.
I'm not denying that the iPhone is a brilliant piece of HARDWARE (apart from the infuriatingly challenging battery slot or lack there of). But the software is really limited in customization, the new multitasking system isnt really multitasking, its just a cache of a few Apple services that programs can access, and an expensive appstore. And on a personal level, the design is boring . The first generation was really pretty but its just been same old same old.Nickswitz wrote:Yeah, it makes it easy to say that it would win. Just wait til the 4g iPhone. Remember, they have been trying to beat it out for 3 years and have had nothing close to really decent. Now they have something comparable, and Apple will ne releasing a new software version (OS 4) thats actually nearly decent from the looks of the keynote, and also will be releasing a new iPhone, which from the sounds of rumors, will be pretty frikin awesome.

One thing I will give is that music syncing is flawless on an iPhone.
I suppose really its a price thing for me. I can buy two Desire's that do everything an iPhone does and more for similar money to 1 iPhone sim free. Contracts for a Desire where you get the phone free are £30 per month. Contracts for a iPhone 3GS where you get the phone free start at £50 per month. I could get a contract and 2/3 another on Desire for one iPhone. I would have an iPhone if it weren't so expensive to own one.
This is where HTC got cheeky. They made the Nexus one, for google all fine and dandy. And then they release their own version, with their own Sense interface which was the first real android system usable by normal peopleNickswitz wrote:Very true. I have yet to see the desire, so I know nothing of it really, I just haven't seen anything really decent, the most decent I have seen was the Nexus One, and I wasn't really impressed with it.Reliant121 wrote:I'm not denying that the iPhone is a brilliant piece of HARDWARE (apart from the infuriatingly challenging battery slot or lack there of).

Indeed, we have a Touch Pro 2 lying about somewhere (Tilt 2 in America I think?) and, remarkably, it actually works.Nickswitz wrote:Yeah, Google's version of Android, is well, OK... Not good, it's on the way there.
HTC however has always made everything amazing. Heck, Windows Mobile 5.0-6.5 was great on an HTC phone...
