This page [1] is generally a good overview of the iPhone. Lets be serious for a second, a new feature was advertised, the ability to jump to a contact by typing in the first few letters of the name. My Motorola E398 from 5 years ago could do that. For sure the iPhone is not a terrible product, but there is absolutely nothing revolutionary about it. If any other manufacture had made it, identically, it would probably be a moderate success. In my opinion all the hate is caused by the majority of people in the open source community recognize the fact that the iPhone is no miracle phone, even though it's being treated as such. But I'm just speaking for myself. </napalm flamethrower></offtopic> [1] http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=iphone Cheers, Federico _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
