This makes me think about something I posted 10 minutes ago regarding computers that can make phone calls, and phones that can be used for general computing, and the idea of unifying everything into one device.

In all silliness, I think I prefer being told that I'm "holding my device wrong" than needing to "carry a second Verizon phone for backup." It's not even the notion of "[if] you can afford it," that bothers me as much as the principle of having to carry not one, but now two phones. What a step backwards...

I believe the word you are looking for is retarded. Obviously, the thing people missed about the iPhone 4 is that you need another cell phone that works.

Hey Steve Wozniak, the "trouble area" you touched is actually a "Pause" button which designed by Mr. Jobs!!!!

So to use one $500+ phone, I need to buy another $300+ phone? Then pay the plans for both? Rather go with the Driod X or EVO 4G where you need to buy just one phone and get superior quality.

[citation][nom]TheDuke[/nom]2 phonesbut why have two phones when you can have one that works[/citation]

Having 2 phones is awesome. Blackberry, Android, and next is iPhone. Cool to have the option for verizon and at&t service

Now he will get fired for promoting a non apple phone.

Unless he rewords his statement to say something like, "by carrying a second phone you reduce wear & tear on your iphone4 by 200%!"

I don't think he works for Apple. In fact, didn't he part ways with his brainchild long ago?

I've been running a Storm1 + iPhone3G for 18 months... and the iphone is trash comparitively; I would prefer to get my girlfriend on a Verizon network, but her family is on AT&T. If I got rid of my iphone, that would solve 2 problems at once... J/K!!! :) (not really)
