[citation][nom]technicalbass[/nom]Apple was the first company to come out with a decent phone OS for PDA style phones. Windows Mobile 6.1 was GARBAGE. And I used it heavily and modded the hell out of it with cooked ROM's so I'd like to think I know how much of a PITA it was to use. Even after the best and most user friendly, easy to use ROM was loaded it still wasn't a quarter of the phone that the iphone was on day 1. Apple's phone was first to the market and it stuck. It was a much needed refresh to what was out at the time. I will also say that after owning both iphone and android based device, my iphone is far more stable and reliable. Applications tend to work better on an iphone. People can hate on Apple, I know I did before I tried the iphone, but you cannot ignore a good quality product just because it's "locked down". The phone is locked down to prevent retarded crap from happening which inevitably does when you leave things "open and free". I'm all for open source and free applications and all that nonsense, but I NEED MY PHONE TO WORK ALL THE TIME AND CORRECTLY! I see more people fiddling with nonsense on android based devices than any other type of phone, and yes I'm sure some of you are techs and have the knowledge to make it work properly, but who the hell puts a phone out that only works properly if you are technical enough to use it. It's a frickin phone for christ sake, were not hackin the planet. iPhone is simple, dumb, and efficient as a mother f'r. Apple may suck as a company in terms of policy but the iPhone does not suck. Not even close.I really wish people would make intelligent comments based on actual fact rather than just jumping on the hate bandwagon....Talk about sheep...And again bashing a company because it has followers who believe they are above everyone else because they own an apple product is silly. If Apple didn't exist then those people would still think they are above everyone else because they have a bigger house, drive a Lexus, etc. Those people will always be those people, regardless of what a company does. Intelligent technical people use mac's all the time and enjoy them.[/citation]
Yes. Yes windows 6.1 is...sad thing is, I still have one of those phones because my parents are too cheap to buy me an upgrade -.- They run so slow..
