No Internet Explore or Firefox, you have to use Safari – I’ve never used Safari but I’ve heard that Firefox is better.
Only 8gb memory – 8gb what? You can pick up a 160gb video ipod (£229) from the Apple store for less than the 8gb iPhone (£269).
Video iPod has ten times the memory and costs 40% less – You can buy an 80gb video iPod for £159 direct from the Apple store, while the iPhone cost £269 and is only 8gb. (niet hetzelfde?)
The price will be cut shortly – in America the iPhone cost $599 at launch but within a couple of months the price dropped to $399. So hold out buying one for a few months and you could save yourself £100+.
Termination fee maybe payable? – In Amercia AT&T (the network provider) charges a $175 termination fee. Will O2 do the same?
Video iPod has ten times the memory and costs 40% less – You can buy an 80gb video iPod for £159 direct from the Apple store, while the iPhone cost £269 and is only 8gb.
No iChat – So no ability to chat.
No other instant messaging client – You can’t install any instant messaging client, so it looks like its back to text messaging. (niet eigenlijk hetzelfde als vorige?)
No MS Office – Can’t use MSWord etc.
You can’t edit Word and Excel docs - You can open, read and forward Word and Excel docs sent to you by e-mail, but you can’t edit them. (hmm alweer een dubbele
)
No zoom in the camera – come on Apple, catch-up. (welke telefoon heeft optische zoom
)
Scratches – Unlike a clam-shell phone the iPhone’s screen is always visible and is therefore more like to get scratches. (Test gezien: met scheermesje krijg je er zelfs moeilijkkrassen op
)
You must have a computer - You can’t activate an iPhone without a Mac or PC. Also a computer is the only way to get music, video and other media onto the phone. To copy a CD onto an iPhone, for example, you first copy it onto the computer and then transfer it from computer to phone. (welke telefoons lezen dan cd's? iPhone heeft toch ook toegang tot iTMS, dus muziek erop zetten kan ook zonder pc
)
Can’t send Picture Messages – You can take a picture with the iPhone, but stupidly you can’t send the picture to anyone because it doesn’t support MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) (ik ken niemand die dit gebruikt -> email is superieur!)
You might get mugged – Police have warned iPhone owners to mark it with an indelible UV pen or DNA marker. Also keep it hidden and in vibrate mode to avoid attention (geld dat niet voor alle waardevolle items?)
Can’t use it while wearing gloves – This might not be a concern at the moment, but once winter kicks in you will be cursing Mr. Jobs everytime you take your gloves off just to make a simply phone call. (Ik ken geen enkele telefoon die je wel fatsoenlijk kan gebruiken met handschoenen aan)
No stylus input for text – I think that the screen is not only touch sensitive, but it’s also heat sensitive, and because a stylus doesn’t produce body heat it wont work. (Is dit niet een feuture van de iphone? Geen onhandige stylus?)
Not suitable for the visually impaired – Real keyboards have raised detents - usually on the 5 key - to help the disadvantaged use the keyboard. The iPhone has no raised keys. (Zo kom ik ook aan 50 redenen om iets niet te kopen)
No VoIP – Why not? Something to do with the fact that VOIP calls are free? (Natuurlijk omdat teleconproviders dit niet graag zien)
Can’t use standard headphones – The iPhone features the standard headphone socket (also known as minijack socket or 3.5mm audio socket) but annoyingly you probably need an adapter. Some clever spark at Apple decided to recess the socket in such a way that most regular headphone jacks won’t fit. (Meeste telefoontoestellen die ik ken hebben niet eens zo'n aansluiting)
