Because that's the only smartphone you will be able to buy pretty soon :lol

I will never buy nor use an Apple product, including QuickTime.

quicktime is very odd :old:
I have Iphone and will not be getting a new one :old:

the more people with this attitude the better, gives me a competitive advantage :aok

I have a rooted DroidX and love it.

I have a DriodX as well and love it. Had an Iphone and loved it, hated At&t. Funny people think Apple is more evil then Google or any other major company.

I have a Razr Maxx.......awesome battery life.

SpI/phones??? Not in my world.. Simple cells are bad enough..
Reinstalling dedicated landlines, moving away from cellphone..
We have a shielded box that the phones go in at home..
No RF in or out, unless we choose to allow it..

sounds like sensible precautions to me. analogue landlines are notoriously difficult to tap, and they have no way of tracing where you are making the call from. smart :aok

Google may be bad and evil, but my Nexus S is carrier unlocked out of the box, does not need a computer, an email to get activated and make a damn phone call. I can modify it as I please, use the store without a credit card. I can use its 12gb of memory as USB key, I can use it as a modem for other devices via wifi or usb tethering. I don't need an itunes account and the crappy intrusive itunes software to manage it.
It does everything and more that what an iphone do, for a fraction of the price. All of this has finally emerged from the fog apple is trying to lay in the consumer minds, that's why Apple is now going full berserk and do everything they can to stop it, without having to actually make better hardware.
All Apple is trying to do is regain market share, without creating something new (they admitted copying everything they had before apple had any hype). And they are the one "innovating"...they sure are innovating on lawyer farms. Shame on them.

I'll take Android any day over iphone.

Me too shuff, about time to replace my droid incredible.

how can you know that? I can publish my PP directly onto our beamer via wlan from my ah wait you called it icrap, can you do it too?
And why there is so much hate noir? Is it only because your nexus was so damn cheap, or is there so much hate againt Apple because they are pretty successfull?
Doesen't matter at all, there are people who buy the products, so the company is doing great, even more if you are the most successfull company on planet earth, belonging to the stock market

Doing great... but not because of their phones. The ipad carries them. That will not do so for much longer.

I'm partial to android. I like it... That being said, the court case Noir is talking about is far from over... this was just round one... and the software patent system is a mess.
-

I have the Droid Razr Maxx, too. I have never owned an iPhone, but I have played around on a few. I like the Droids a hell of a lot better.

I'm getting the Droid Razr HD when it comes out.. :banana:

I would rather get my landline back than get an iphone. same goes for a windows phone. at work both iphone and windows phones are both known as windows phone, because you gotta be close to the window to use them. but nobody has a problem with android phones. then again most people have verizon android phones.

I have no idea you're talking about, anyone can use random initials and sound knowledgeable.
I don't hate apple, I hate the weakness of the people believing anything apples says, just out of laziness. Closed ecosystem is like living in a camp by choice, while paying for a 3 stars hotel. These people are downright scary.
Being successful doesn't mean being the best. That is what Apple taught me. Apple was revolutionary in their compilation of copying, but that was in 2004.

I have no need for a smart phone. I don't need pr0n on teh go.

My wife doesn't allow me to have a smartphone :uhoh

Used to have an iPhone, and it was fine. Now I have a HTC Titan, Windows 7.5 phone and it is fine. Also have an old HTC Desire as backup, it's Android, and it's fine.

Droid.
Why would I want to buy a phone from a company that is already two years behind what the company has created?
Apple is about stealing your cash. That is all.

I'll keep my GZone Commando thank you very much. I want a tool. Not a toy
the Commando fits the bill perfectly and I can do things with it most of you cant with your cutsie phones like this
(http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2011/05/casio-commando-lead.jpg)
In fact a couple of weeks ago I dropped it, then tossed it several times into the deep end of a full sized swimming pool. I was at a picnic and was showing someone that I could dunk it in water with no ill effects and it slipped out of my hand. So I sent one of the kids down to get it. So impressed were people. They asked me to do it several more times as newer people showed up.
The "What are you? Nuts?" looks on people faces are priceless when they watch you toss a perfectly functioning smart phone into a swimming pool with no aftermarket "tough" case to protect it. Even better are the "No blanking way" reaction when it gets retrieved and still works perfectly.
I live a tough life. Maybe if I sat behind a desk punching a keyboard all day or attending corporate meetings. I could make due with a cutsie phone. But everything I have gets wet,dropped,battered,bashed,dusty,dingy and dirty. And can be exposed to the extreme heart of a rooftop, or the very wet and cold snow. Custie phones just wouldnt survive me. These phones are like the old Timex commercials "Takes a lick'n and keeps on tick'n.
Does it have ALL the features that cutsie phones have? No. but it does have most of them. And the features the cutsie phones have I dont and wouldnt use anyway.
Iphones and some of the others are great for women. and they are in fact a great womans toy. But I dont need a toy. I need a tool.
This fits the bill perfectly

Liquid ICS v1.6 Beta1. It gives an older phone Android 4.0.4. I highly recommend it, glad I did it, because the bloatware is gone.

iPhones.. Meh... You can't do jack with them..
The only Apple product I own is my monster PowerMac G5 (before they went to Intel) that I use for my recording studio..
-
since this thread has degenerated into an anti-Apple bonerjam - I have an iPad, because I can get all the navigational charts for the 50 states for $70 a year (plus georeferencing using the built in GPS, to boot) plus not having to mess with maps when I'm flying is awesome. It's a tool to make my life easier.
As soon as Garmins app for the Nexus 7 becomes as easy to use and user friendly as Foreflight though I am gonna switch.

You are not serious right?

After seeing some of his other posts, I'm pretty sure he is.

Then he should forget the whole rf box idea. The government has been installing 'smartfillings' for years now. Unless you pack your head in the box every night they can monitor what you are thinking through your teeth.
I'd get drilling quick :rofl

Google is starting to ramp up to defend its partners. Apple so far has not gone directly after Google anyway, Android is safe. Samsung deserves what they get, hopefully it's a lesson to others to stop modifying Android, and just give us the vanilla OS.

Interesting!
I know that some people have prostituted themselves to the system so completely,
That they resent and attack anyone who refuses to do so.. You are a case in point!

I am? Oooo, how have I prostituted myself to the system, because I don't believe the government control me through radio waves they transmit through my mobile phone? Seriously, is that what you believe. If thats the case I couldn't give a crap, I like my life as it is thanks, if they are controlling me to do the things I like then who cares. You need to come out of your lead lined basement, probably full of cans of cold beans a wooden spoon, and a dogeared copy of playboy. Give Tom Cruise a ring. He'd love to hear you babble on about this brand of plop :salute

I think people who harbour a raging hatred of others based on their choice of mobile phone is pretty scary. and laughable.

I have a iPhone and a iPad. Like them both. To top it all off, I have my cell service with AT&T. I have been with them for years, and have had nothing but excellent service. I guess it is to each their own.

Raging hatred is an over statement. In the future the personal assistants will become more and more important so I think it's an important subject. Also my post was referring to the whole business system, and I believe that Apple, if they become a monopoly, will lead us straight into what RngFndr fears.
It's more than just a phone, it's a revolution :lol
-
what business system? like any company they make stuff, and you can either buy it or not. I cant think of anything they make which isnt available from other manufacturers in one shape or form.
no one is forcing you to buy apple stuff, whats the big deal? :headscratch:

Do you read the news? They are trying to sue their competitors until there only 1 product left, theirs.

wrong way round. they are sueing to stop other companies from selling apple designs with a different logo on them, and rightly so. if they didnt sue there would only be one smartphone design. this is a good thing for consumers - it forces other companies to innovate and come up with new ideas, giving the consumer more choice.

finally showing your true colors :D
Apple didn't invent anything, they just compiled existing ideas, and admitted it back then. Your statement is so wrong it's kind of sad that you actually believe that, these green colored iGlasses do wonders.

that's why apple want to crush everyone in the courts, they are a bit short on 'technology advancement' right now.

Not all of them register about anything, even if prior uses existed. Poor Apple everyone tries to bully them, all they want is to innovate :cry
Be careful, if your tv or computer screen has round corners it could be banned in the near future :lol
