But do any of you ever think that perhaps some people could care less that phone is "locked"?
There is nothing that I have wanted to do that I couldn't do with my iphone. All I know, is that it is 1000 times better than my old Palm Treo, and that's good enough for me, and most people I know. It doesn't really matter. I just can't stand it when a conversation has to be had where the partipants are so far on either side that it becomes a pointless mess. "I'M RIGHT!" "NO! I'M RIGHT!!" "I'M RIGHT!" "NO! I'M RIGHT!!" "I'M RIGHT!" "NO! I'M RIGHT!!" Each to their own. I just wish some of these "product opinion" convos could be more constructive. "shrugs" By the way, our nephew just got an HTC HD2 and it's a very nice looking and feeling piece of kit. Too big IMO, but nice nonetheless. Sent by iPhone goodness. Have a happy day!
