I'm with Vitalism and Rayovac on this one, Id rather take a nokia with full qwerty keyboard. When the iphone came out, it was missing most basic features that pretty much every other phone had. It changed a smart phone into a regular phone. It was advertised as an innovation, when in reality every feature in it, had already been in other phones.

Apple does that with all of their products. Claim all of it is innovation, and charge five times more than what it's worth. Steve Jobs could shit in a cup, put it in a glossy white case, claim it as "the next big thing that will change your life dramatically," and sell it for $799. The masses of sheep would buy it up instantly.

You forgot to mention, they release the next model less than 12 months later and everyone upgrades.

Apple loves to tell customers what to buy and what is cool and what to listen too, why you think coldplay is so popular now....

I'll buy one when there 1/4 there current price and Apple fit's them with an OLED screen.
OLED screen, so it doesn't break so easilly, and the price lowered so i feel i'm not getting ripped-off.

you'll be waiting for at least a decade. look how slowly the prices are dropping on the ipods, and they're not even that big of a price drop. personally i think there's much better phones out there. besides, i personally would not like to rely everything on just 1 device
