I agree. iPhone owners are complete clueless morons. And the majority of those are right here in the U.S.. And that is why the iPhone market share is declining globally. Down to 16% now. Soon they'll be nothing but a rounding error... LMFAO... too funny....

Arguing that Apple's customers won't switch because they are stupid, uninformed, tech unsavvy morons who care nothing for system quality, features, specifications, standards and performance is perhaps something you might leave to others, Tumbleweed. Personally, I think you can only push out crap out for so long before the toilet clogs. Apple's toilet is just about there, as the poll clearly shows. The same arguments were common about Samsung a short while ago... I'd venture such comments are easy to find looking back on the board.

Re : "If Apple can sell phones without these basics, why does anyone here think" ............................... I have heard that : one way to (slowly) turn these things / influence the "masses" is : You hire a bunch of tall, skinny, good-looking, young, blond women to stand around in (carefully selected) bars, using (say ...) the soon-to-be-released Nokia phone (preferably in the most beautiful / outrageous color.) ----------------------------------- If these women understood the (potential) power of their work, they'd demand an enormous amount of money to take the job.
