iPhone - destined to annoy me

I never liked apples. Their computers were always twice as expensive and half as fast as PCs and just having a cool design never made up for their other failings. In more recent years their iPods have also annoyed me by having half the features of good mp3 players and being forced to use iTunes which is just a purely evil piece of software.

So now apple have announced the iPhone which looks good but will probably disappoint. Sure its got a super detailed touch screen and some funky user interface but all the cool dfeatures, like incorporated google maps and decent online browsing are going to suck hardcore over the bodgy GSM network. Why not just make it 3g and be done with it???? So rather than just panning the phone completely i'd give it my top 5 reasons why the iPhone will suck.

1. Using this thing as a pda/web browser will burn a hole in your wallet faster than eating Beluga caviar for a week.
2. Touch screen interface actually difficult to use as its way too small to get any decent sized fingers on it.
3. Its made by apple so lots of stupid people will buy it without realising there are better products available at half the price.
4. It will be difficult to use as a phone because all the fancy interface and extra crap will make it damned hard.
5. The only way to msg or enter text is through the touch screen keypad which is guaranteed to be a slow annoying process.

Oh yeah if you wanna see the press release/specs go for your life.

Update!! Yeah, well if you want to see someone strap off my 5 reasons why the iphone is gonna suck then go for it.
