Besides, just because you don't find it useful, doesn't mean that other people don't. Family members emigrate, many are not computer literate and sometimes MMS is the only option to show off pictures of the new grandchild to family members on the other side of the world. There are countless other situations where MMS is useful. The simple fact is, the iPhone would be a better phone if it included more options. Look at the N-series, regarded by many as the best phones out there (for the record, I'm not a huge fan of them either). Now they have almost every feature under the sun thrown in. How many people do you think use all these features? Not many. My point is - choice is good, limitations are not...

Those who simply cannot accept that the iPhone is sub-standard. The best web browser? No flash OR java. So crippling. I do not use the iPhone, so I guess it must be iPhone envy. Coz I REALLY wish I had a phone that can't do things mobiles were doing 3 years ago...

Bluetooth is FREE, how can e-mail be cheaper than that? And your post makes out that Apple are the only company that have software/firmware updates...

I'm sure lots of sub 15 year old's synchronize with their companies Exchange server.
Why don't you grow up yourself, and join the other whiners complaining about the lack of toys.

I have to ask:
I've had my iPhone now since July and I want to ask other iPhone 3g users, when you sync your iPhone 3g with your iTunes on your laptop/pc, does it take half an hour to finish synchronizing the iPhone with your iTunes?
Mine does and it's god damn annoying me. I'm ready to ditch it for the Samsung Omnia or just going back to a press button phone.
Anyone else having the same problem as me?
Thanks

in the philippines, the iphone 3g is tagged as "and internet device with a phone." a better description than "a phone with an internet device." that's why people get so confused on its function. it should be used more as a mobile INTERNET device than a mobile phone.

99% of problems are solved by holding down the on/off key and the function key until the phone resets, once you show people this and explain how iTunes can restore their phone you don't see them again (unless it's to buy more accessories).

I work for optus, own an iphone and i can safely say it's the best web-browser we stock. We have recieved very few returns. There are two types of people-iphone users, and people with iphone ENVY.

Far out, I've said it and countless other people have said it, yet people still complain about it.
The reason you can't share music via bluetooth is to stop piracy and protect copyrights. Complaining about that is like complaining why shops have security sensors at the checkouts. Stop being so pro-theft and actually buy some songs.
As for photos, it is a little pain not being able to bluetooth them or MMS, but its just as easy, as well as cheaper to email them.
And regarding the statistics that 1 in 10 iPhones will be returned, I work in a phone shop and sell iPhones, and every single iPhone returned save one has been because of user error, not hardware or software fault.
At least Apple can acknowledge bugs and fix them via a software update, and not make you wait until a new model. 2.1 fixed a lot of things and as more and more software becomes available, I know that I won't need to fork out another large sum of money for a new phone, but just sync with iTunes.
I'm not saying they are perfect, but if any phone is to be, they will.

Nokia lagging behind?...ofcourse it is part of the game. I am sure nokia will come out with an 8+ camera phone once samsung's high end devices dies down.
