iThink iPass On iPhone
Steve over at HMTK.com recently posted a pic that provides yet another cynical look at the iPhone suggesting its lack of functionality. In my humble opinion, the iPhone is certainly an example of great marketing. Prior to the iPhone launch, I made small comparisons to the LG Prada phone…such as “the iPhone won’t be able to do this, but the Prada phone can”. I was quickly convinced by Brian Lam that my comparisons were nonsense. Fine. I still can’t stand the undeserved hype the iPhone is receiving. It’s cool…yes. But that’s it. So, here’s a comparison I should have been making that ISN’T nonsense…to the Nokia N95. Ok…maybe a little less nonsensical. 
You can check out more comparisons of the Nokia N95 to the Apple iPhone on the SymbianGuru blog, including a variety of Mac/PC video spoofs (N95 vs iPhone).
iWPhone WordPress Plugin and Theme
While roaming around on the Internet yesterday, I stumbled upon a WordPress Plugin that caters to iPhone users.
The iWPhone WordPress Plugin and Theme automatically reformats your blog’s content for optimized viewing on Apple’s iPhone. It detects the iPhone’s User Agent and serves up the content with the special theme only to iPhone visitors, all other browsers will view your WordPress blog with your current theme.
You can download this plugin on ContentRobot.
By the way, thanks to the lovely Meleah for her inspiration for the title to this thread.

I too, find that the iPhone is overrated and is a pumped up marketing gimmick. The wannabe trendy hipsters will eat this up and then complain 6 months later when the phone is selling for $99.

The N95 is also 21mm thick…so hells no.

Indeed it is. In all reality, an iPhone/N95 comparison is kinda dumb. Different purpose completely.

I think i’ll pass on N95…
Why didn’t u talk about the interface, the buttons, the size!!! C’mon!

As I mentioned to Ed above…different phones/niche market. So, a comparison isn’t really possible…although it seems to be the closest thing. I just can’t stand the attention the iPhone has received. Marketing genius.

We can’t compare the iPhone to these other phones because it doesn’t matter if the iPhone was full of concrete, the Apple marketing/design teams know how to do their jobs ;).

This is the absolute truth. They can sell a ketchup popsicle to an old lady with white gloves.

I think it is overrated as well. However it seems Steve Jobs is getting one for many of his staff and this company has prior track record with Ipod that may work in their favor.

Steve Jobs could take a shit, put it in a white box, call it the iCrap, and people will still flock to pay $600 for it.

You are completely wrong on this one. 3 days into my iPhone and I’m pissed at blackberry for cheating me for 3 years. I thought I was driving a corvette and realized I was driving a Chevette the whole time.

I’m seriously glad to hear someone likes it. I can’t imagine life without my Dingleberry. So, it must be bad-@$$ for you to say that. And Chevettes are alright, man. Kinda.

People sleep with iPhone and wake up with it

Which provider offers the N95?
July 9th, 2007 at 11:25 pm
Yeah I too was looking forward to buy iPhone but after it came and found lots of features were missing, I decided to go for N95

I’m all for you as far as downsizing the ipod, i cant stand its overpriced bs. I won my ipod touch, i refuse to buy an iphone (because of the price and the exact quotes in the picture) and i even found a way to avoid paying itunes (without using the virus sucking limewire) which you can read about http://hubpages.com/hub/Free_Ipod_Downloads1
stick it to the man, erm, the iMan!
