- I'm not segregating anything man. You guys aren't in here to discuss the iPhone. You guys are in here to talk about how wonderful the Storm is, make negative comment about the iPhone so you can praise about the Storm and cause drama. Why? You do this already in the Storm forums why does it need to happen here? I'm not over analyzing anything. Look at your comment, they are pretty obvious.
And I've said it before in this thread. Just because an iPhone user bashes the Storm in the Storm forums, doesn't mean you need to do the same to the iPhone here. You guys keep talking about how the iPhone is for younger people and how a BB is for a real adult. Well guess what, if you were an adult you wouldn't need to post all this useless **** in here. How about you act your age.
I'm fine with good discussion, but all this is turning into, like usual is iPhone vs. Storm, and it just stupid.
hows this.
is this what you want?
THE IPHONE IS A GREAT DEVICE. IT IS THE FIRST TOUCHSCREEN PHONE ON THE MARKET. APPLE CONTINUES TO SELL THESE PHONES AND CREATE SUCCESS...APPLE SHALL NEVER BE MADE FUN OF, ESPECIALLY BY SOMEONE WHO DOESNT OWN AN IPHONE, BECAUSE IT IS ONLY THE IPHONE USERS COMPANY, AND NO ONE ELSES.08-22-09 01:15 PMLike 0 - avt123O.G.I just think you may be taking my personality too serious.

To iPhone bashing users: It's hard for you to accept the fact that the iPhone is doing great and will continue to do great. I also find it funny how most of you don't have or never have had an iPhone. The some of you who have, didn't have it for long or long enough. I also think it's funny how those of you who did try it out come back and complain about the features the iPhone is lacking... didn't you know that prior to buying it? Or is this your best attempt at saying, "I owned the device, but still think it sucks"?
The app store is the best and will be that way for a long time. Android will be next and then Palm's App Catalog. There have always been app stores for BlackBerry devices, just because RIM is heading it, doesn't mean it's going to do better than how it's already been doing. RIM will can win, but it won't be by the app store, that's for sure -- at least not with the memory leaking, no memory card storing, battery pulling OS that we currently have (including 5.0).
I keep seeing people saying that the iPhone and Apple has been out for 3 years and this is why it's so good... I didn't know they had BlackBerry flavored kool-aid because the iPhone has only been out for a little over two years and didn't nothing has changed with the touchscreen as it worked out the box and still continues to work. The touchscreen was a success on the first shot. The iPhone's app store only came in to play last year. What was the excuse for the 2Gs being so successful? Why are all the ratings in favor of the iPhone by large margins (profit, market share growth, satisfaction etc...)?
I have an 8900 and I don't want or intend to use an iPhone, but I'm not stupid. I'm getting my doctorate soon, top of my class currently, so I'm guessing it takes someone of intelligence to see and acknowledge the facts and reality.
To make this clear (without calling out names), there are a few people who keep creating threads (or even posting in current) to make fun of the iPhone and/or have no intent on saying anything good about it... get a life. Are you bored at home with no girl or your spouse is to busy with the kids to give you any? Be real with yourselves... if bashing the iPhone consistently and constantly is making you happy, then you're sad. I just did a search on one particular user and his posts. He started and has 6 threads in the iPhone 3G forums, but doesn't have/use the device... sounds like a stalker to me, you're probably the creep that tried to follow me home last night. Get a girl or get Viagra and be your own girl.

I never cared for the app store as I've never been an app person, but this doesn't make a device a failure because it's succeeding in this area. My b/f (a member of CB) has the iPhone and enjoys his.

I think it's great to make humor with devices/companies every once in a while. It when it's done every time is when it gets old. Notice how your "charging thread" just got locked.
But the thing is, the dude who owns this thread is the pot stirrer. I have no issues with you at this point. But cmon man look whose thread were having this discussion in.
I would not ever go to the extent to say the things I may have said about the iPhone in this thread in any other thread, but the mother of this thread is someone who glides by the mods with a fake smile, and then goes around spreading
"the storm is a crappy POS device" in any forum he can get his hands on. So go do it AVT. Go ahead and create an ipHone storm thread where we can maturely discussions comparisons and advancements, but that just simply WONT happen in this fake thread.
08-22-09 01:37 PMLike 0 - No, you are not talking about the iPhone. You guys are bashing the iPhone. THere is a difference. This turned from a "why the iPhone is so popular" thread, to "why I use my storm and how my storm is just as good" thread.
Really, why is it just you and Card Storm that feel the need to do this? It started with you posting several threads within a few hours making fun of the iPhone, and Card Storm backing it up and getting a overly dramatic laugh about it, to you guys now staying here to continue this nonsense.
The iPhone forums is now filled with Storm users. In the other thread "Has anyone switched from BB to the iPhone", you had to jump in to say how you wont switch to the iPhone. Guess what, that wasn't the question. No one cares if you wont be switching, the question was if you switched from a BB or vice versa. Then you have to go and add what you think the reasons for people switching are. Then add "flame suit on". You are looking for drama. How about you go tinker with your Storm some more to make it work properly instead of doing this.
Oh I should expect "well the iPhone wasn't perfect when it first came out". The iPhone was perfected a lot faster than the Storms official update was thought about being pushed out.
ok then, so heres the post i responded to
I wont be switching to the Iphone, not even if it comes to verizon. Its really nothing to do with the Iphone itself, I just prefer BB's. I find it kind of funny how many of the people that say they switched to the iphone was because of the cool apps and cool games avaialble for it. Sure sounds like business users to me
(flame suit on)
insert foot into mouth here please
how are we bashing the iphone. Not once have I said its a POS, in fact I have acknowledged many times over how I feel its a good device, just not for me. Is there a rule in the TOS that states we are not allowed to make fun of certain devices? Maybe you should have kevin change it to read as follows: NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO MAKE FUN OF THE BELOVED AND HALOED GOD PHONE. YOU WILL BE PERMENTANTLY BANISHED FROM THE IPHONE FORUMS IF YOU DO SO. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. Oh and no need to tinker with my storm as it works perfectly. Heres a link to a video of a storm running 4.7.0.151 for you to check out.
i know, you wont bother looking at it. I dont need to look for drama because all I have to do is post something positive about the storm and the itrolls will come over to the storm section and starting spewing there garbage over there.08-22-09 01:40 PMLike 0 - I've been lurking for some time now and just wanted to sign up to say I've never seen so many people fight over no reason.

But its when the unreasonable trolling comments come out like "the iphone or storm is a crappy POS" that get people upset.
I can see how you may "Think" that the storm users may feel this way against the iPhone but that simply isnt the case.
The owner of the thread is the breeder of the iphone/storm hate and you guys are too caught up in defending your iPhone against people who ARENT truly against it, just crackin jokes thats all. Just take a look at scorpios post history and his first page of posts will give you an idea of what hes all about...
better yet please dont make me go to the storm forums and pull out links of where iPhone users deliberately stirred the pot in the storm section.
It goes both ways, but im telling where the root of all this comes from.
Paul didnt start out bashing the iPhone every day or so you call it bashing when really its not. You just dont agree with it because its not in your defense and not funny to you so you feel the need to defend it and take it the wrong way.
IT was after storm users went through all that stress with their storms and to have people like scorpio post the hate and take advantage of peoples frustration is whats caused all this.
Im tellin what I see...ok.08-22-09 01:45 PMLike 0 - avt123O.G.the thing is avt...reputation follows you everywhere in CB. Thats one of the first things I was told when I started out here. I was banned from CB twice so I cant speak too much on anyone else.

so whats the issue08-22-09 02:12 PMLike 0 - avt123O.G.No he doesn't ask for your thoughts on why you wont be switching. He asks for thoughts from people who have switched from one to the other. He wants to know their thought, not yours.

Just wait till storm 2 comes out, and tell me how technologically advanced your iPhone is compared to the Odin then....its going to blow 3gs out of the water.....or in your case the fire.The majority of all Iphones are being used by the younger people, and quite a few of the younger owners acutally had there parents buy them the phone. Thats one of the reasons the number of Iphones sold is high. I would say junior high to college. After they grow up they will realize they need a more mature device to get around in the real world.
Please just put the Ikoolaid down. Just be careful not to spill it on your Iphone because your mommy might get upset that she has to get you another phone.
Do you know how many High School students use BBs? I see more children with BBs than I do iPhones. In fact, the number is probably equal since EVERYONE wants a BB or an iPhone. Why wouldn't they? They are the two hottest devices around. Kids want what's cool, and BBs and iPhones provide them with that satisfaction. Do I agree with them having it? No, but blame the parents for paying their bills.
I dont blame you though, I would hate not understanding how to operate a real smartphone.
Do I need to find more?

i know, you wont bother looking at it. I dont need to look for drama because all I have to do is post something positive about the storm and the itrolls will come over to the storm section and starting spewing there garbage over there.08-22-09 02:31 PMLike 0 - avt123O.G.I rarely post in the iPhone forum, I really have no need too UNLESS there are those few topics that come up every now and then that belong in the iPhone forum that interest me. You will hardly find me in any iPhone thread. The only ones ive been in are this one and pauls picture threads thats it.
so whats the issue
Pauls picture threads are asking for drama/arguments. By contributing it just instigates even more. Do what you want, I can't stop you lol. I'm just saying my opinion, as you are yours.08-22-09 02:38 PMLike 0 -
Actually I dont have a foot fetish so have at it.
Why is the iPhone so immature? Because it can actually handle games better than a BB? Because it has more developers who are able to create better things than BBs? Why is the iPhone so damn immature? The Storm has fart apps. The Storm/BB OS also has other useless apps the iPhone has, except you have to pay for them since its the BB OS. Just because the iPhone has more, doesn't make it immature, I'm sorry the iPhone is easier to develop apps for. That's why you see so much stupid ****.
Another reference trying to say how the phone is for younger people, and even trying to say that the guy doesn't pay for his own phone.

Actually I dont have a foot fetish so have at it.
How am I bashing when I have said all along that everyone has there own right to choose what device they use. I dont start the bashing of the user, I only respond the them when they call me needless and childish names. If you go back and look at my posts you will see that Im always responding to the name calling and not the one starting it (and dont try and take anything I posted out of context to show otherwise)
please feel free to find more. Im enjoying this. From what I have seen and experienced most of the iphone users are of the younger age groups. Notice I didnt say all of them but IMO and from my dealing with people most of them are younger.
we wouldnt bring this here but we were told to take all of the iphone talk to the iphone section, hence the reason were here. Go figure! Oh and its not just my storm, but many many many users have there storm operating like this. And just for fun, there will be many many more videos coming soon for all the storm haters to see.
Oh and i hope you have a nice day.08-22-09 02:59 PMLike 0 - I kinda feel the same way he does. There are a lot of reasons I like each device and plenty of reasons I don't like each device. Personally I don't think one is better or more superior than the other. My Storm is my work issued device in which I have little or no problems. I have had more problems with my iPhone, but even though I have the freedom of trading in my Storm for another device I won't, I love it. Storm for work, iPhone for play.08-22-09 03:11 PMLike 0

You don't need to repeat the question, I know what it was. I guess we will have to agree to disagree on that one or this will go on forever.
yes i did generalize but thats because of MY dealings with Iphone users. So hence the reason I posted the question asking what the average age of the iphone users and lo and behold someone complained about it and it got closed for no apparent reason. Funny how that happens!
again, In MY dealings, so yes this is the case unless you can provide a poll or proof showing otherwise. I will stick by what I have seen.
um, no thanks. I dont like ghey porn08-22-09 03:32 PMLike 0
