Looks like he gave up on taking apart the main piece. Still more that can be done!

I said the Android platform if far from intuitive...geeky, confusing, and clunky...and appeals to a small fraction of society.

I never mentioned the iPhone in that post. Funny how people instantly picture the iphone when they think "simple, intuitive, mass appealing, and un-clunky.

wow. I think we have a winner.

This supports my point perfectly - of the few people in this thread raving about the Android platform is someone named "Admiral Klingon"

That should show you where the sales are coming from. Women (which are 50% of the smartphone market) will panic because the OS is far from intuitive - actually confusing as hell. And geeky as hell.

Go ahead and rate this negative but if you want success, you have to appeal to the MAJORITY...and trekkies and nerds represent only a small fraction of the population - thank god.

And 75,000 returned due to confusing OS and clunky form factor.

I've got a 128k and Mac plus if you want them...disassemble and learn your heritage :)

Guys who say they are going to go get an iPhone instead based on price....

We have 3 iphones in my family, one 2g and two 3g. Everyone in my family is waiting for the Bold because they hate their iphones. The iphone 3g system doesn't smoothly switch between networks and towers, and you are left with no carrier for minutes at a time. EVEN with 2.1 OS.

That coupled with the poor email tools for batch delete, and the copy past problem...CAN'T WAIT for another blackberry. Carried one for years. LOVE them.

When we say "Macbook", are we referring to Pro as well?

I think Macbook is a generic term for all of the above....

Slow news day?

I need an article on how to resize a finder window

I looked up the first mention and accurte descriptions of the Blackberry 9000 with 3G just for fun. I was curious how long it's been and we still don't have it.

I was able to find mention of the "Bold" as a 9000, with 3G and accurate stats, as far back as early 2007.

For those of you living under a rock, it will be 2009 very soon.

Slowdtrans:

And where are we supposed to get this fabled "Bold". I talked to an at&t rep last week (business sales mgr) and he said "Definetly not October for the Bold. We are thinking right around the Holiday Season - Late November/early December"

Rumor has it that at&t refuses to accept the phone until the 3g chipset has been changed out because it isn't jiving with their network.
