iPhone 4 vs. iPhone 3GS lightsaber battle. Yes, really. Made with the iPhone 4 and iMovie. Deets here.

“And, for obvious reasons, the glass back raises concerns about the iPhone 4’s droppability. With previous iPhones, it was liking dropping a piece of buttered toast — there was a lucky and unlucky side on which it could land. With the iPhone 4, it’s like dropping a piece of toast that’s been buttered on both sides.”

It truly is frightening.

I shall not be buying an Amazon Kindle because I don’t need a device that’s controlled by outside parties. Also, DRM sucks.

I shall not be buying an iPhone because I dislike paying gobs of money for crappy service. I’ll pay a pittance for my crappy service, thank you.

I shall not be buying this Kingston $900 flash drive… yet. When it’s $100 I’m all over that.

Okay, I needed a third thing and that’s all I got.

I just saw a commercial for the iPhone 3G S that “does some pretty incredible things.” Things like Copying and Pasting. WOW. Where has this technology been all of my life? Oh wait, on every computer I’ve had since I was 10…

Apple, please.

I realize that copy/paste is a new feature on the iPhone, but it’s not an “incredible” thing, it’s a thing that should have been included in the original iPhone. It’s not a complicated process, it’s a basic process. You can’t make people forget that it’s a basic function of most computers and smart phones by producing commercials like this. It will only make you look silly.

How about a commercial that says: Finally, we’ve added copy/paste to the iPhone since we knew you wanted it!

I’m sure the next commercial will be: The new iPhone will wow you with it’s ability to call any number in the U.S.! Wowee!

The iPhone and the iPod Touch are NOT netbooks and they also cannot compete with netbooks yet.  Sure, if you made them with 9-ich screens you could maybe make a case for it. But right now, you just sound like crazy people with all your talk of “junky hardware” and “cramped keyboards”.  Your insistence that an iPhone can do everything a netbook can do is just plain silly.  I can’t write a novel on an iPhone — well, not without driving myself crazy and posibly going blind — I can write a novel on my NC10.  And I am.

Really, now.  Every quarter you just make me lose confidence in your sanity over there.
