[citation][nom]craxbaggins[/nom]Why do people love these phones anyway? Most of the people probably buying this kind of crap are probably techies and enthusiasts who are usually at home near their laptop or PC.As for me, I like to stick to my crappy 25 dollar Nokia phone that has lasted me for 5 years and use whatever computer is near me for the rest of my operations. I mean these phones are cool, but why not spend that money on a better PC that can do more? Thats just my opinion.In before I get hit by all smart phone buyers[/citation]
Yes, if you spend 100% of your time in-doors, next to an internet-connected PC, you probably don't see the appeal of a smartphone. Some of us however, spend time traveling, away from steady net connections or even away from PCs altogether for *hours* at a time... or even, gasp, *outdoors* where there is not even electricity much less wired internet! Apparently I am not alone in this category either, seeing as how smartphones are selling by the million.
