You do that in one year? Than I will make you a millionaire.



Btw, Underwater Mike, re-read my post you complained about.
Go back to page 3, you aren't even worth a new post.

I'm working on a front page post about this article actually...

She either used IE Mobile, or she used Opera on site that detects the mobile browser and serves up a mobile/WAP site. Same thing with the keyboard - she must have gotten the tiny WinMo keyboard up instead of the more finger-friendly HTC keyboard.

So it's either lazy reporting, or wilful deceit. Take your pick. Either way, it's baseless criticism - except, perhaps, if she were trying to make the point that having two Web browsers or two keyboards on the device could be confusing because you could launch the wrong one and not realize it - but she didn't mention that, so I really doubt that's her point...

Walt and his flunkies are so Apple focused that they really don't take the time they need to understand/appreciate things that are different. They shoot first and ask questions...never.

Or had the "One Column" Wrap to fit setting.

Or she had "Man hands"... I found the Touch and my co-workers Diamond keyboards small.

To a large degree...yes. In addition,...as with "The truth about Vista'' article, the best way to boost readership is to tell the reader a sensationalist version of what they want to hear.
"Palm, Apple are sooo stable...Windows needs resets every 20 minutes."
"Who cares if their simple interface leads to a seriously inferior level of functionality...It's just sooo pretty"
"Bill Gates is the devil...and Steve Jobs is an Angel...even his farts smell like rose sherbet"

Oh damn, on that mentioned site this person Katherine Boehret looks so ugly.
Must be ugly persons to ugly websites that take ages to fully load.

In that unqualified article the text string "iPhone" is sown 11 times.

What made me laugh, besides her ugly face, is this:

and this:

Odd, the CE/WM platform is much more developed and flexible than the iPhone OSX.

This is a lie:

The Diamond display sure is multitouch capable.
Not using them or not yet, is another story.

Obviously she is too lame to handle the professionalism of WM. That's why she gets frustrated over the professional interface that is way too complicated for her simple mind which only wants to toy around with something that Apple can feed her.

But some of the comments on that article are even more idiotic and also a good laugh.
It started right away with the first comment, from this "research and development" guy.
I just thought what a restricted horizon he must have.


Btw I just equipped my Diamond with a locking software which locks and unlocks the device by rotating it in the hand.
What does the iPhone do again?


Now I ask myself: Is this really worth posting or just ignore the teasers and go ahead with the right stuff?

I found the on-screen keyboard on the Touch Diamond hard to get used to, but it's virtually identical to the iPhone keyboard, so it seems silly to say that one is so much worse than the other. I'm willing to bet she was using the Microsoft mini stylus-based keyboard.

Criticizing the way someone looks instead of their ideas is a cheap shot and it completely nullifies any further comments you might have.

Your worst mistake here is that you really dare to judge your readers, Jason.
But you didn't manage to warn the person that attacked me personally in this thread, did you?.

I saw the whole article from that unqualified girl as a joke anyway,
so my ranting phrases weren't meant seriously, just like I cannot take her person seriously.

And to be honest, her ideas are even more uglier than her face is.
She is unqualified and incompetent, and most of the people here seem to think the same about her.

By the way, she really doesn't have to use a photo for her editor profile, does she?
You also don't have a real photo on your avatar, Jason, instead you're using a robot's face.

I like some of your articles, Jason, but I really don't care about your opinion.
Go on, get over.
