Thats how your ford-ferarri androids-iphones works. Just cause it costs more doesnt mean it's actually worth it. That's why "highway robbery" was invented...the phrase, you know...

Obviously people in Spain, France, Germany, Italy, and most of Europe for that matter, are pretty tech-able and spot stupid advertisements and fake claims like Apple makes all the time" we invented this, invented that, and invented the invention of inventing stuff"..yeah right...nice try, not in Europe, no thanks, keep you itoys.

Apple is still on top and will always be. Reason being that when u talk of android, your talking about more than 10 companies against just 1, yet, the difference in sales is'nt much.

I mean if Ford made better cars then Ferrari at a cheaper cost wouldn't be better? well that's not the case with ford but it is the case with android smartphones.

Apple will die along with Steve Jobs, Nokia will die soon cause they left Meego & Don't care about Symbian.

RIMS to classic ... but got best security.

Every Mobile OS got its own flavour... Pick one & don't care about what others say's.

I can't help feeling a little sad about RIM's downfall. They're coming down in slo-mo and it's kind of a sad spectacle. They don't give you little bright moments like Nokia. It's just sad :'(
