Not to deviate the thread, but wouldn't it be neat if your phone held music, and when you got put on hold, the phone system would play the music on your phone instead of the crapola that's piped through the phone network? I say this cause I was on the phone with yahoo yesterday for about an hour, and a good bit of that was me on hold listening to elevator-quality musak while their technicians handled a few issues for us.
but iPhone == OMGWTFGOTTASELLABABYFORIT! expensive
$60 for cheapest personal plan + min $499 for the phone + activation fees and your paying nearly $600 for it. and there are NO discounts for the 2year contract (required btw, even for pre-paid).. etc.. rant rave.. blah..
as for the minimalist phone there. pretty interesting idea. i love the simplicity but please.. make it a flip phone. i really dont like exposed buttons and screens like that.
Flaagan: I would like a feature like that. And I want that damn phone. F the iPhone, just gimmie simplicity with maybe music and a camera (there's times where you want a camera to catch random things).
I like slider phones, myself. I just bought a RIZR a few weeks ago, love that phone. The screen is exposed, but it's made of glass so it doesn't scratch under normal wear and tear.
I like the iPhone as well, but it's far to expensive and it's lacking way to many features in this first rev. No voice calling, no speed dialing, can't use your own ring tones, etc etc. I had to renew my contract with Tmobile, so in 2 years, there should be a far better version of iPhone that I can get
"This one's just a cellphone that plays a bit of music and stores a list of your contacts, nothing more. What a concept!"
what a load of wank. I've got this wacky phone that has buttons on the front which - if pressed in a certain order -allow voices to come out, which you can then talk to with your mouth and brain. Now, how's THAT for a concept?
i firmly believe the development of the mobile telephone has been in perfect sync with the development of global cuntishness
So this is great because because it lacks features and is probably more expensive than phones out there which have more features?I dont get it.
If you're sick of poeple who care so much about features,looks,style etc of their mobile instead of the basic functions, then the worst thing you could do is buy this one.Because I personaly think that this is the best example of a mobile phone that is not bought to actualy call with it.
(im not saying everyone will buy this for the reason above, its that, all of the comments on articles about this phone on the intnernet that i've read, were from poeple who hated the iPhone for some reason etc.)
...is all I can say. Free anytime minutes, free in-calling, no roaming charges, and you only have to talk to people you want to. All without the hassle of those extra services.

That makes no sense at all. ^_^
Speaking of an iTurd, if Apple were to market and sell a turd, do you think people would buy it?

They already do. But they call it a mouse for some odd reason.
