>An inferior phone for a dozen reasons

The iPhone 3GS is an inferior phone for a dozen reasons. In fact it could be called crippled.

@ergo98: The 3GS is indeed crippled, but an objective user would be hard pressed to call it inferior. In the end, to each their own- some folks (including myself) are willing to put up with the limitations of the N1, and some folks are willing to put up with the limitations of an unjailbroken iPhone.

>some folks (including myself) are willing to put up with the limitations of the N1

Which limitations would those be?

>but an objective user would be hard pressed to call it inferior

It is absolutely inferior in at least a dozen ways. It is superior in a variety of other ways (polish), however I am simply using the same phrasing that you used relative to the N1.

This is a threaded forum, you don't need to use the @ergo98 thing like on twitter.

heh, thanks for the heads up! A habit from other threaded boards, even though the syntax is twitter. Some folks still manage to get confused about who is speaking to whom- but point taken, this isn't slashdot. :)
