It Just Works...
Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson -

I'm sure Android has its share of bugs. A non-smart phone or even (GASP) a clock is more reliable. I'm put off a smartphone for the very reason that it's a fully-fledged computer, my regular phones never crash, etc.Originally posted by gingerjedi View PostOriginally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

I must admit as a phone my Desire isn't as good as my old Nokia but on the other hand it has way more functionality than my laptop so for that reason I wouldn't want to be without it.Originally posted by d000hg View PostI'm sure Android has its share of bugs.

I don't see it as a phone, more of a mini computer/email client/media player/web browser/GPS/Camera with a phone thrown in.Science isn't about why, it's about why not.

I have an Android phone that I got off ebay for about £100. It crashes about once a day. Although it does have a custom ROM so that's probably a large part of the cause. I need to reflash it with a new ROM and see if that helps.Originally posted by d000hg View PostI'm sure Android has its share of bugs. A non-smart phone or even (GASP) a clock is more reliable.

Oh no! Millions of new media creatives will miss their 11:00 Starbucks meeting with Toby and Miles to brainstorm the new flash intro for the Sunny-Delight-Sponsors-Watercolour-Challenge promotional microsite. How will the wheels of industry keep turning?Comment

True. But beside the point. The reason that technophobes and consumer victims worship Apple, is that they've been brainwashed into believing the arrogant, over-hyped propaganda that "it just works", and other technologies are fraught with difficulties.Originally posted by d000hg View PostI'm sure Android has its share of bugs.

I've a Nokia N97 smartphone. It has its shortcomings, but crashing regularly isn't one of them. One of the advantages non-Apple smartphones have is that many apps that you have to pay for with the Apple device are free.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment
