iPhone? Moer Liek iSdumb!!!!

The Newsweek Review

You can't download songs directly to your iPhone? Man, if only it had wireless capabilities...


You can't set mp3s as ringtones? How will I ever know that I'm getting a call from nirvanafan431 if I can't play Smells Like Teen Spirit?

It gets warm after using it for a while? BAH! Add some fans, APPLE!

Can't access e-mail if port 25 is blocked? What the crap? I ALWAYS block port 25! Everyone always blocks port 25!

Safari? SAFARI?!

No flash support for web browsing? What, was this phone built in 1992?

No support for instant messenger clients? Yeah, we'd hate to cut into your profits from SMS messaging, Asshats.

A 2 Megapixel camera? Apple users have to have at least a 5 Megapixel camera for taking pictures of their smug. Smug won't fit into 2 Megapixels!

Only 8 Gigs of storage? How will I fit my 10 gigs of videos of myself with my iPhone onto it?!

Apple is fooling you all! Don't let them do it. Fight the good fight! Everytime someone buys an iPod or an iPhone, it just reinstills their belief in their own superiority. As long as Apple owns the market on small personal electronics, we will be a slave to their whims. We must keep the free market free!

Yes....Yes...It's all coming back to me.

I hate Macs! I hate Apple!

I hate their ._ fork files.

I hate their inability to write to NTFS hard drives but their ability to write to NTFS network drives. PICK ONE! WE'RE AT WAR!

I hate their stupid one button mice.

I hate their stupid Menu bar.

I hate their stupid "finder" name for their "windows".

I hate their inability to access Windows Networks as easily as Windows computers can access Windows Networks.

I hate how their native e-mail client utilizes webmail, rather than connecting directly to the exchange server.

I hate their proprietary Hardware.

I hate the lack of thumbscrews on their cases.

Have I mentioned that their mice have only one button?

POO ON YOUR IPHONE!!!

POO!!!

It's important to also note that of the 8 gigs of storage roughly 700 megs of that is already in use by the phone's OS

That's 700 megs I could be using to hold pictures of myself with my iPhone. Or pictures of my cat!

Also, requiring a Social Security Number to sign up?

That's...something. A little iBigBrothery

Also, I just received an invitation to an "Exclusive Microsoft Across American Event." whereat they will show me Vista, Exchange 2007, MS SMall Business Server, etc.

I've never received anything from APPLE offering to teach ME about their newest software and how it can help my business.

Thats because you aren't hip enough yet. You must first spend at least 3 lunches a week at Starbucks with your macbook browsing hip websites, followed by 2 weekly trips to some hip independent concerts. And most importantly you must have less hip friends to which you can assert your hipness in an aggressive manner.

So... in other words, Jay, you can't have the iPhone, becuase Mikey allready fulfills the role of Mac Hipster Zealot.

I think so, yes.

I hate reading these user reviews of people talking about watching videos on the subway, or checking movie times, or browsing the web while "crashing on the sofa".

Do people really do this? I thought only hypothetical users actually did that stuff. I thought real people just made phone calls and looked at pornography.

Apparently new iPhone batteries are Freaking Expensive.
