Agreed.
I prefer PCs, but the iPhone is amazing.
I bought my wife one and would get one for myself if I wasn’t required to carry a Blackberry through Sprint.
That said, I’d place more stock in the article if it didn’t come from a Mac site. Mac cultists are rarely objective.
What I don't understand is the need to watch a movie on a little 2”-3” screen that you paid money to download onto your phone, zune, ipod, etc...
My company uses AT&T Palms, which are ok for some stuff, but the stylus pen is an annoying pain in the a#$.

The interesting thing about that is that these so-called “Mac cultists” that you’re referring to — are being eclipsed by a *very large influx* of former PC/Microsoft users... hoo-boy!
Now, does that make them new Mac cultists or what? LOL...
The stats at the Apple Retail Stores show that 50% or more of the sales of Macintosh computers are going to people who have never owned them before. AND..., by *far* the owners of iPhones are way past the numbers (overwhelming percentages) of former Macintosh/Apple product-users...
And, in fact, the overwhelming numbers of iPod users are way past the numbers of former Macintosh computer users.
The fact of the matter is that these so-called “Mac cultists” (as you’re referring to them) are far outnumbered by the PC/Windows owners, who are now making their moves over to the Macintosh world of computers and other devices.
I think they’ve discovered that Apple makes a better product... :-)

And you can look on this thread to see Free Republic members who have, themselves gotten out of the PC/Windows world over to Macintosh...

Why do I have a PC? Because I could buy a PC laptop, an ipod, and still have money left over for tuition!

You of course have a point - but you will I hope agree that an article listed as being by the "Editor of MacRevu" is already more objective, just by wearing its perspective on its sleeve, than Associated Press "objective" journalism is.Subjectivity is the assumption of your own objectivity. It is difficult to isolate in your own thinking because you wouldn't write anything if you actually didn't think that you were right. But at least you can call yourself a conservative before you rant about "liberals." And in fact you do that by the mere act of posting to this web site.
