I'm not being funny Neo but the iphone is simple easy and slick, it's cool, and it's so cheap for the bundle, how can you ever judge them like you have? get an iphone or itouch aand see for yourself, i never really liked ipods or apple, but i did not diss them because i have not tried their gadgets yet, now i own one and man, they truely are amazing and well, sync ringtones, vids, tunes, applications is much much easier if you was to buy a mp3 player.
you see, i have owned a sony mp3 and a touch samsung yp and no way as good as this apple, and no way as easy as apple to get applications on, also music, it's never been easier, you see with usb mp3's where you shove them in and their on your pc and you have to copy paste to get music on and sometimes it's confusing as to where you are with copying, well, itunes destroys that and it's easier to make out what your putting on an taking off.
apple is good.
