Point being All phones/carriers have their plus and minuses. iHate Apple fan boys who blindly defend their iPhones or whatever else Apple makes simply because it has a label to it. Go get nestled in your cozy Ikea laced apartments and polish your Scandinavian furniture. Personally I like both the IphoneOS and the AndroidOS, my choice though is with anything Open Source, so I'm more with Android obviously. Not too mention I refuse to use the bloated POS iTunes to sync or update anything, it has got to be the most cumbersome and buggy application I've used in a long time.

For instance ... - i Don’t have a real keyboard: Virtual keyboards adjust depending on what you are entering so you don't have to search for special characters, are easier to read because there aren't 2 or 3 tiny characters per key, and they allow one to quickly switch between between languages. - i Don’t run simultaneous apps: This reduces the load on the CPU allowing it to run idle and conserve the battery. If you want to see your iPhone battery drain quickly just leave Google Maps or Pandora type apps running and lock the screen. - i Don’t take night shots: Apple should have added a LED flash. - i Don’t allow open development: If Apple did not review every app on the App store people would be up in arms about renegade apps draining the battery, malware, spyware, and their children downloading porn apps. - i Don’t customize: It would be nice if the phone were more customizable. Themes would be nice. - i Don’t run widgets: This is a phone. The apps load instantly. Widgets on a small screen are worthless anyways. Phone widgets are a gimmick and never performed well on my Nokia. - i Don’t have interchangeable batteries: This would be nice but Apple would have to give up the sleek design. The iPhone is the best phone I have ever owned. It is simple to use and I can rapidly move between applications. Unlike my previous phones it simple works. The cut and paste is the best experience I have had on a phone. Only shows that Verizon doesn’t understand some of their bullet points are advantages. For instance …

No more dropped calls, and all I miss is the iPhone.... oh wait, I have an iPod touch. Verizon’s service is 1000 times better, I switched despite the iPhone and am much happier.
