Well i have wifi at school and at home, which is where i spend the vast majority of my time. SO its not so pointless after all.
THe phone also has endless applications avialable for it, literally hundreds of them. It also doubles as an ipod, camera, alarm clock, everything really in one package. |

iPhone has nothing to do with fashion dude... It has tons of capabilities, people just don't use it. My iPhone is literally a mini computer, it has everything a blackberrry has, even more. I even have 4 different emulators on it if I want to play games. Not only that I can watch movies on it. |
Every PDA Phone is a mini computer, we all have emulators and we all can watch movies. I use to like my SNES emulator, but once I started to play all these new game with touch screen ... never touch my emulators anymore. The thing is, we barely use these functions .... games, movie and etc.
On my Treo
I have 4 diff GPS systems,
there are tons of apps skin to mod the OS
There are so many hacks to improve the OS
I flash any firmware ver on my phone I want
Even if my phone is stolen, there's an app I've installed that can lock, format, ban my IMEI and lock my sim with just txting a code to my phone.
I can control my computer anywhere I want wth my treo
I can unlock my car door via BT
and the list goes on and on and on
The main thing is, there's no restrections at all and i don't need to activate anything through iTunes or any syncing software.
WiFi ... better bring yoru charger with you, that drains your batt faster then anything
Since you don't have a real keyboard, you can't txt while doing things ... you gotta look at the screen and hope your pushing the right letters.
Bottom line is ... do you homework and think about it before you buy any APPLE product. |

I guess other people don't use most of those functions but I do. But I get what you mean, they limit the people that don't know how to do the hacks etc.
However, for people like me who knows how to use the iphone fully like it. You may have a Treo, but the screen is for watching a movie on.
I dunno, to be honest it just comes down to personal taste... |

I personaly like the iPhone ... I like the hardware, but for sakes Apple's restrections is really ing them and everyone else up. There's so many things ppl can do with it, only if Apple was smart enough and allow anyone to wrtie programs for it.
I watch some movies here and there, but most of the time, i'm driving and there's no time for that :p Even if I had an iPhone, I'll rarely watch movies ...
When the iPhone came out, ppl were like that's one cool keygaurd. Some dude wrote a keygaurd for the Treo, that does the same and also displays the 5 day forcast with some serious graphics and animation.
I saw some dude's HTC,he hacked the out of too ... it very nice and barely saw any elements of WM6 on it. |

Wooooooo HTC. I love my Touch and it is hacked to hell and back, custom ROM and all that junk. My only qualm with it is the slow Texas Instruments OMAP 850 CPU, but , I even overclocked it so that isn't an issue anymore :) |
