    OK MM,
    You're correct, I did have an iphone to run a specific app, I can see the advantages of having one, however my frustrations were caused by O2,and the iphone as a whole as the functionality was crippling, also the misleading ads annoyed me because everything was simulated and makes the iphone look like another product altogether. The Comms companys all know this and charge silly rates and lock you into long contracts to bleed every penny out of you, all this and i couldn't even tether my phone to my laptop!

    I'm not discounting the platform as a whole, just the device it functions on.

    no, and as a result I can make and recieve calls (without them cutting out)
    Browse the web at a decent speed,
    and my calls do not get constantly diverted to my answerphone


    Oh, and i can change my battery if it runs out.....

    P.S and my phone was free, and open source...

    HTH
