[citation][nom]LORD_ORION[/nom]Awww..... I was hoping the headline was going to end somthing ore like this "Whoopi Goldberg Hated, Destroyed by Trekkers"[/citation]

Trekkies?
 
I very much think that the Iphone 3GS is a nice phone, it works like a phone and has a ton of applications that allow you to do a whole lot more. Before I continue, I will say, I don't own an iPhone, nor an iPad, or any other contemporary apple products. I have an old G4 Tower, which I very much love, but it was purchase used. I am a PC fanboy as far as the day is long. That being said the iPhone 3GS is good. The iPhone 4..... Well my friend just recently bought one, and I'm surprised he didn't throw his into the concrete. He did nothing but complain about it for the 3 days he had it before taking it back. I kept asking him why he didn't return it, and he said 'Well, you know.. They'll fix it eventually..' Was the iPhone 3GS as bad when it came out? I don't recall reading anything bad about it anywhere. Anyone got some links?
 
It would've been cheaper if she'd just worn a t-shirt mocking Apple...like these: http://www.zazzle.com/SteveSays*

Then she could wear a t-shirt that displays her anger instead of smashing expensive stuff for no reason. That's just wasteful.
 
doesn't the iphone have other uses besides making calls? that's right, they concentrated too much on these other features and forget about that phones primarily are supposed to make calls.
 
[citation][nom]osxsier[/nom]Too me whats more amazing and frankly quite pathetic is all these "android" people claiming that anyone with an iPhone 4 is fanboy and clueless. Seriously, I posted a few times in here about the iPhone, only to be immediately flamed and told how ignorant I was. I just sat back and laughed, that you people let a phone for gods sake, get to you that bad.And you say I am the one with issues? Most of you need to take a look in the mirror.[/citation]
When i looked in the mirror, i saw myself.

Whoopi is a piece of liberal scum
 
She has unlimited funds and can afford to destroy a $400 phone and eat the cancellation fee. She probably thought it was possessed by the ghost of Patrick Swayze.
 
So the commercial she did with Phil Jackson and Jesse James for T-Mobile it means she did it for money . She has an broken iPhone by her own had, is great to be somewhat famous. Break a phone on TV. and get fee air-time. She got a lot of money for that MY Touch commercial. Conflict of interest NO!!! Sad that anyone would pay attention to Whoopi. We should make our own decisions. I grew up in a communist country and that is what they teach you, believe an do what the people in power/famous say. That is not freedom. Whoopi like fame and money. She could do a commercial for Apple and destroy a Blackberry. I have a BlackBerry Bold with many problems but if a destroy it no one would care much less make the news. People like Whoopi are like children with out control and they call it freedom. Make your own decision please!!!

Most normal people don't have as much money as she does. If I did have the money she has, I'd be 100 and burn them for a demonstration. Not that jobs would care.
 
The fact that shows like "The View" exist is further proof that we are living in an Idiocracy already.

Any doubt whatsover is further removed by the existance of shows like "Wipeout" - which might as well be renamed to "Ow my balls!"
 
Okay, so I posted a critique of the author of this article stating he's a troll and this is a fluff article and guess what, it was removed... You're starting to act like Apple with it's forums... This article is just trolling for negative influence and far from the reporting that Tom's has done in the past and if you should be able to stand the critique... I'm going to start going elsewhere for my news...

No, I would have smashed that sucker too if I'd been such a sucker to buy one in the first place.
 
come on now admit it, the iPhone is first and foremost a fashion accessory, second a light weight internet access device, thirdly a mobile media player, fourth it's a status symbol.... in fact phone is so far down that list im surprised it can actually make phone calls at all, thus the reason for choosing at&t
