Monday, June 9th, 2008 : Tech

I need to get something cleared up.

What the hell is up with Apple users, and why in God’s green Earth would you purchase an iProduct? I’ll give you this, the MacBook is “just another laptop” that looks neat and is about the only tech-standard item you can purchase from Apple Inc. But this isn’t really about the MacBook, in fact, if this were about the MacBook - I’d probably have a hard time coming up with more than one or two bad things to say about it.

This is about the EPIC FAIL of the iPhone, and all the Lemmings that still love this damn thing. I don’t get it.

1. No Video Recording? … STILL?

2. Weak ass camera? … STILL. 2 Megapixels and no front-facing camera? Say “bye bye” to Video Teleconferencing in REAL 3G service areas (outside of the US)

3. No MMS… STILL

4. Copy/Paste on a touch sensative screen makes sense… Oh, it’s not there.

5. I bet it’ll fit in the old iPhone cradle and such, right? … NOPE!

6. 16GB version! WOW! Don’t they make a 80GB iPod?  Or better, I know there’s a 32GB iPod Touch out there.

7. Can’t remove the battery, still, and you’re looking at a full finger print version with a high gloss back to go with the front now.

All this points to squeeze every last $100 bill out of your pocket and keep you coming back for more sodomy by a company that claims to be innovative. The only innovation they’ve had is … Invent MP3’s… no wait… um… Invent MP3 players, no… um… Oh yea, the ONLY FEATURE iPHONE HAS TO OFFER:

Multi-touch.

Sorry, but that’s a load of crap. I’ve played with Multi-Touch - I think it’s neat, but it needs to interface with TODAY’S TECHNOLOGY.
