Oxford, anybody who is as evangelical about a phone as you are and is
not employed by its manufacturer is, by definition, a fanboy. We are
all thrilled that you are a happy apple customer and loyal to their
product du jour, but haven't you gotten the message from these posts
that many disagree? And if we/they do disagree, why do you care? Again,
only a company employee or a fanboy would care - and even a company
employee would appreciate that it takes a wide variety of products to
serve any given market - ONLY a fanboy would be so arrogant as to think
that the whole world. Apple is a bit unique in thinking their way is
the only way but perhaps - just perhaps - that's why they maintain their
low single digit market share.

Always been a fanboi - a blind, rabid one - the worst kind.

And you have also been wrong.

Remember your offhand dismissal of 3G? The stupid comments you made?
Now that it's actually IN an iPhone - I guess you must be eating those words...

Then, your insipid wi-fi assertions. Months later, proven to be utterly wrong.

Your blather about RIM, Nokia and others. Still wrong for the most part.

Bottom line - FANBOY!!!

what? 3G still sucks the life out of your battery for no real gain since
most people will use WiFi 90% of the time. The exciting thing about july
11th is the App Store not the 3G phone.

I was never prove wrong, WiFi is more open and free now more than ever,
just as I predicted.

nah, I'll never be a fanboy, just a proponent of "quality" products no
matter what the brand.
