Other than the cost of course is the most annoying feature of ANY mac product.


Its appeal to others who don't have one.

Many a times have I been at my college with the macbook and people coming up to me and saying things such as "oohhh an apple, lemme see!" or "wow can I check that out?"

Grant it, these are all people I know. But what would happen when I got the iPhone. People would be going crazy to see it. So popular, that I would never get to use it.

Apple, how about you dumb down your awesome-ness and make ugly products so people dont want to use mine.

I can understand that point of view.

It'll be cool to have one, and even to show it off to the first few people who ask to see it...

But if it happens all the time, even when you're just using it as a phone, it'll become annoying, no doubt.

But you get what you pay for! :)

It's not one of the most annoying products it a very good and nice product, i'm just not getting it now because i live in Europe.
 
Why does everyone think Mac forums are their own personal blogs now that the iPhone release is near? I mean seriously, what is the point of this thread?

Can we, as a community, keep threads like these to personal blogs please?
