- Price - $499 or $599 with a 2-year who-knows-how-much data plan.
- AT&T - Which wireless company sucks the most? Some say it’s these guys.
- EDGE - Instead of faster 3G technology. If you don’t have Wi-Fi hotspots, you’re kinda screwed.
- No Flash - This means it’s not the “real” make-you-have-a-seizure Web.
- No Java - This has something to do with coffee but I don’t really get it.
- No iChat - I guess some people still aren’t cool enough to use GMail.
- iTunes Lock-in - Oh wait, I forgot you don’t pay for your music.
- No Keyboard - This means it’s hard to type.
- Screen - It will be hard to see in daylight.
- No Office - Lack of MSWord makes me cry.
- No Real Apps - Because I, unlike most people, actually know the difference.
- Smudges - My fingers are way greasy.
- Scratches - I can’t keep my keys away.
- No Games - Well there’s that rumor about Nintendo, but otherwise, what am I supposed to do with this thing?
- No Song Sharing - You mean the Zune is better than the iPhone?
- Ugly - I don’t like shiny.
- No Mirror - Can’t really take emo self-portraits now can I?
- No Yahoo Maps - Because even though Google Maps is better, where’s the choice? Fascist!
- aka Jesus Phone - Uh...discrimination against Jews.
- I’m Fat - Okay, I’m not, but what if you are?
- Only 4 or 8 GB - My por...ahem...my music collection is much too large.
- Viruses - I can browse to a site that could infect my iPhone, and when I sync it to my PC I’ll get a virus. Sure, I could avoid that site like I do on my home computer, but still!
- No Wi-Fi Downloads - I absolutely MUST be able to listen to Shakira at a moment’s notice!
- I Have A Phone - It was only $30 and works just fine.
- I Have An iPod - It’s an 8GB Nano and works just fine.
- I Have An Internet - So there.
- Touch Screen Sucks - No one has ever made a good touchscreen. No reason to think they’d start now.
- Apple’s Never Made A Phone - WTF do they know? Nokia, Samsung, etc have been making phones for years now and they still suck - how could Apple possibly do better?
- I Use T-Mobile - Switching to AT&T costs money.
- No Internet Underground - Taking the subway to work means no online access when I’d most want to use it.
- Lack Of Tactile Feedback - Means I can’t text while driving. Cause that’s a good idea.
- Sealed Battery - I can’t change it myself. Lame.
- Too Big - I like my itty bitty Nano, thank you very much.
- Ajax Sucks - It is the scourge of the Internet
