That is pretty insane devotion for a phone.

Nothing much to endure when I got my 3G. The T-Mobile shop called back the day I asked them to reserve me one out of their next delivery, and that was during the shortage after the first glut.
Then ensued what some people would have had to endure but I enjoyed: a 20 k bike ride each way to fetch it from the shop. My time back was one of the best this year, I couldn’t wait to try it out!

Well, i read a story about a guy who had his thumbs operated thinner, so that it would be easier typing on the iPhone..

Honza – It doesn’t offend me, I just think it’s a waste of one’s time to criticize and say people are stupid for liking the products that they like. It’s just an effort in futility.

I don’t like Windows PC’s but I don’t troll around their forums blasting them for being “stupid,” and I don’t like some Apple products, but I don’t go around in those posts here on TAB and call those people “stupid” either.

“If you don’t like the phone don’t buy one. If you don’t like news about it, don’t read the articles. It’s really that simple.”

= Stock answer for the easily offended. It’s really that simple.

If you were speaking directly to the gentleman who got the snip, you should have addressed him in your post. As it stood, you insulted everyone who has posted a comment, and the author.

If you don’t like the phone don’t buy one. If you don’t like news about it, don’t read the articles. It’s really that simple.

Brandon-
I apologize; I guess I missed this site turning into “The iPhone Blog.” I love reading (and writing) about Apple tech as much, if not more, than anyone else, but I think that the iPhone mania has gone too far. I would be speaking just as critically of anyone who got a vasectomy to get a Macbook.

Raven – what’s sadder, the fact that we love a product for it’s simplicity, design and features or the fact that you feel compelled to come to a site about it and criticize us and it for being “stupid.”

Do you not have a life?

The vascectemy thing is obviously overblown. Obviously the guy was going to get forced into it anyways, and just snagged a free iphone out of it.

I was reading something Mr. Ive said about technology, that might explain why some people think this thing is the second coming. He said, and a paraphrase here, “When your tools are broken, you feel broken. So when one of your tools is fixed, you feel more whole.” or something like that.

I mean nothing derogatory towards those who want them, or who waited in line to get them, or who like them. But far too many people are taking it too far. A vasectomy is just too far to go for a piece of tech, however shiny.
I mean, I jokingly refer to my MBP as my child, but surgery to get it – no.
