I know people who buy iphones are probably dumb, subscribe to the paris hilton school of sensibilities & self-esteem and probably deserve sympathy...but, I cannot think of a more annoying icon of materialism in contemporary culture.

just sayin, like.

Presumably you've noticed that you're reacting against judging people based on what they own by judging people based on what they own?
 
Very good Egg, very good.

Anyway, it looks quite practical to me - a phone, computer, camera, walkman all in one? Sounds good to me anyway, what's the problem?

No I didn't and you make a very good point. Shame on me.

Minor pedantic note though: iphone users don't own the iphone. Apple does.

That is despite people paying through the nostril for it and then paying through the other nostril for another 2 years because you're locked into a 2 year telco contract.

I've read a few horror stories online about people who wanted standard smartphone features not available on the iphone and Apple responded by 'bricking' the iphone (so it wouldn't work) which is a tactic often employed by another well known billion dollar corporation. Some might say that Apple is the new Microsoft.

That said, I can't disagree with your sentiments about judging people.
 
iDiots the lot of them. Anyway Popeye they're not forcing you to buy one so leave them alone.

Fair point.

On a positive note, I suppose the iPhone will be very useful when out and about....the iphone serves as a perfect and very visible warning sign to avoid talking to intellectually challenged idiots or iLemmings.
 
good news popeye, i've just had a word with some
leading politicans and judges and it looks like we
CAN get this law passed!
