I was giving benefit of the doubt, but to me it just sounds you are anti-apple. It doesn't matter to you that we might have made a decsion based on personal experience or research, you only see that we have "drunk the koolaid".
You posts reek bitterness about the product, without any solid evidence that the product is crap. I was a hold out for a long time (and a Zune owner) but was won over with the usefulness, simplicity and functionality of hubby's when he got his. As an aside: Hubby's 2.5 year old 3G: still going strong, not a scratch, crack or a crash with perfect battery life. My 3GS: Used every day, almost all day, same as above. But none of that matters to an anti-apple person. Sent by iPhone goodness. Have a happy day!
