The iPhone 4G is probably everything I’d have wanted in a phone.

Any insider info on if it’s going to be available sans contract in the US or any foreign market?

I guess this guy has never heard of any Operating Systems besides Microsoft or Apple.

The more I see such discussions the more I don’t understand them. They’re apple (no pun) and orange comparisons.

Microsoft owns most of the frosting on the cake: OS and a few applications.
Apple owns the biggest chunk of cake outright: OS, desktop computers, notebook computers, pocket computers, now tablet computers, major accessories, many applications, music content, video content, etc.

Whatever the comparison is, those with their money where there mouth is say Apple’s role in the market is worth more (market capitalization).

Still waiting to see the mythical open source Exchange killer.

Parallels my experience in home, business and technical usage. Except in my case my high-end Lenovo ThinkPad laptops cost more than my MacBook Pros... and after three years the ThinkPads have been ready for the recycling bin, with cracked cases and broken hardware. The Macs just keep going and going and going.
