This is where I have to disagree with you. So it was missing a few functions, so what? Even with no 3G, the browser was still better than any other phone. And the App store revolutionized mobile telecommunications. I don't think anyone could argue that smartphones wouldn't be anywhere near where they are today without it. Hell, even Android probably wouldn't.
It may not be the best anymore, but it was at one time, and like it or not, it was a phone that got people excited, and that's all the matters. No one cares about copy and paste and 3G and MMS if the phone it's on isn't fun to use. Quite simply, the iPhone was, and always has been a fun device to use and that's why people love it, write about it, and give it a little leeway. Because even if the reception is a little iffy at times, and even if multitasking sucks, it's still something that is easy and enjoyable to use. That is why the iPhone is brilliant.
Maybe not the best smartphone, but still brilliant.
Btw, I hate Apple, so don't think I'm a defector. I would never buy an iPhone, but I am trying to have an objective view here.
well i think ya should cross out "droid x" in your future and edit it with "Iphone4" since it is so "brilliant"......... just my 2 cents
