I figure if I'm gonna be mocked for my statements, I might as well make statements worth mocking ;)

I am on Jordan's side in this entire debate...until Steve Jobs is dead and in the ground, I will never own another Apple product...the cult-like nature that their products have inspired are absolutely comical...its like thinking an Opus X is bar far the single greatest cigar in the world...because CigarAficianado said so...there are many reasons as to why Apple has no real chance at taking a bite out of the PC market and its applications....I carry a BlackBerry...mainly for business uses...for instance, making phone calls and checking e-mail...not as a calorie calculator or a personal video game device....

I guess you can only say things like that for so long. When Apple *does* start taking a bite out of the PC market and out of the enterprise phone market -- as it *has* -- then your objections kind of ring hollow. Apple has a pretty darned successful platform that a lot of people *like* because, well, it works and offers a pleasing experience. I think that's why more and more people are buying Apple products.

Word.

Maybe I should just be responding with total fanboyisms to counter the naysayers. :hm

Why can't people understand it is because we like their products. If we do, what is wrong with that? Can't it be like you like Mercedes and I like BMW and why should any of that be "comical"? Where on this thread does it say Steve Jobs is the best in the world as in your Opus X analogy?

I fully realize that, and depending on which side of the sales/marketing/engineering fence your views are on, one can see the lack of the upgrade slot as a good thing or a bad thing. Personally, I'm not thrilled with the possible lack of one.

I was wondering/asking if anyone had actually seen the full specs yet to confirm that it, like the 3G, was lacking the memory card slot.
(can't load Apple's website or engadget here - too painfull waiting for the pages to load via the remote)

Agreed. People should just come to the conclusion that others do, in fact, like the devices. That's why they sell. I don't enjoy the fanboy conversations usually. Granted, SJ is a bit of a tit at times but makes some awesome devices.

No memory card slot. Confirmed via the Tech Specs on Apple's page.

Nope.

You can tell I am just excited about the thought of seeing him.
Had I truly seen him, it would have been over and that great outfit would have been stained.
