I really wish you stupid motherfuckers would stop talking about the fucking iPhone. It's just another fairly shitty and extremely overpriced cell phone. That's all. Oh, you can play music on it? Great, that's been available long before the iPhone. Oh, you can view photos and multimedia on it? Great, that's also been available long before the iPhone. Oh, you can use iTunes on it? Could do that on other phones before this as well, but why would you even want to use iTunes when there are much better alternatives out there? That was rhetorical for all you iphone freaks who are obviously mentally impared. Apple is the king of hype and they've got all you mindless drones playing right into their hands. How fucking stupid can you be? Again, rhetorical as there is obviously no limit to how stupid you can be. Oh, it has a touch screen? Great, not the only phone out there with touchscreen technology and besides, who gives a fuck? Do I have to say it again? Okay, those were both rhetorical. Oh, but wait, it's got text-fucking-messaging! Great, so does every fucking phone on the market. I am so sick of seeing, reading, and hearing about these retarded Apple products. Yes, Steve Jobs is a master at sucking untold amounts of money from the retarded masses, but that does not make his products worth two shits you stupid fuckers. Just when the iPod bullshit starts to die down a little bit, this iPhone bullshit takes over. I want to be able to go to a supposidly non-biased tech site/magazine and see something on/in it besides iPhone shit.

i like my sony ericson. it does everything i like and more. and it was free with 2yr contract. i think it's crazy how the iphone is advertised on tv and in movies and shows (still advertised i'm sure they're getting money for their product being featured). when i first started watching that vampire show on tv last season it was in every episode. i forgot the name of the show. sorry ;-(
@NightlyDreams - Yeah, Apple products are in every damned TV show and movie released now. It's sickening. I get into a movie then someone pulls out a Macbook with that giant Apple logo taking up the entire screen and I completely forget about the movie and am overcome with rage. It's fucking bullshit. They did it even more overtly in Californication on Showtime. They show dude's normal laptop freeze and he throws it across the room and goes to an Apple store and buys a Macbook. Then he says some stupid shit about how he's gonna "gift" his daughter some music between their iPods. What the fuck? No one talks like that.
Why limit it to iPhones? I hate all cell phones and their complicated gadgetry. If the only thing cell phones could do was call other people than American society would be a lot better off.
@vickevlar - I limit it to iPhones, because it drives people to buy a product based on hype and the "I'm a sheep, too!" factors. Before the iphone, most people just wanted a cell phone that was free or close to free with their service plan and made calls. Now you have to have a particular phone (a fucking expensive one at that) to be part of the "in-crowd." That's why. Oh, and because I don't hate all cell phones, because if I didn't have one then I would never be able to keep in touch with anyone. I would rather they stop making them with all the bloat-features like the shitty camera components and tons of buttons that do nothing but go to mobile websites urging you pay 3 bucks for a 20 second ringtone, but I'm fine with cell phones other than that crap.
Yeah that's true, but the popularity of other pointless additions to phones began long before the iPhone, seems like the iPhone was just a huge exploitation of that haha. In high school I honestly thought the hyper-obsessive attention spent on cell phones was just another obnoxious but short-lived fad. No cell phone I've ever seen gets service at my house, and I didn't understood the need to be in constant contact with people when you are out, so I didn't get one until I was like 18 and still never used it. I guess I really missed the boat on this one, huh lol..
@vickevlar - When I was younger, cell phones certainly were not required, but in this day and age they are. You could claim this is adding another pointless monthly expensive to people's lives, but then you have to take into account that you can just cancel your home phone service and use only the cell phone service. It's just the next evolution of the telecom industry. As far as not using them, I guess it depends greatly on your lifestyle. But, people today are much busier than they were just 10 years ago and that means it's harder and harder to get in touch with people without using these advanced technologies such as mobile phones and the internet.
Yes, iphones suck, so do ipods, all of their stuff sucks for the price. Dumb shiny toys for a dumb shiny loving society. I got a blackberry now, but that was free from work, but now a lot of the sales reps want an iphone now. Tis sad really.
@inFester - Haha. Well said. I don't have much experience with Blackberrys, but the little I do just confused me. I mean do you seriously need to put 40 icons on the menu? Who wants an icon for 5 different IM services when people usually only use one.
