So can we all imply from your own words that when you tell us you have a first gen iPhone, that you are in fact a "faggit"? Chill out bro, there's more to life than a comment board!

Meh I don't trust that statistics, iPhone users might be growing but hey did all customers suck up to AT&T price? Or are they using iPhone on T-Mobile and Verizon? Still I do not believe a lot of Americans own an iPhone I mean can a worker with a $6.50/hr own an iPhone?

Sure! They can OWN an iPhone; whether or not they can actually afford the monthly service fees or not is another question entirely!

Formal apology. The first guy had a very good argument and so did HOVA I didn't read the article. It is impressive that Apple does that from only one market. Sorry everyone.

Wait a sec. So you didn't read the article, and just scrolled down to the comments section and started flying off the handle? How old are you?

From my experience the iphone is the dumbest of all smart-phones. It cant multi-task, and its just a grid patterned desktop that is hardly customizable. The fact that such a stupid smart-phone can be gaining popularity shows that the average consumer isn't smart enough to be given the option to customize without it confusing them and them screwing it up. Seems to be the same problem people have with windows computers, the average non-PC savvy person gets infected with virus' because they don't know to stay away from retarded websites, opening penis enlargement emails, or clicking on the sexy girl in the pop up ad. People are too stupid that they have to be protected from themselves. Apple is good at that, thats why their phones are gaining traction in the world. That or they are all retards who fall for the hype in the commercials. Have fun with your iphone idiots. Or forget what I just said and head back into your cool world where all us non apple owners are idiots, btw theres an app for that. PS and dont give me some BS "macs dont have viruses " its because no one is writing viruses in hopes of infecting 5.12% of the computers out there, they want to infect the most which is windows machines at 92.77% market share.

Just a question, what do you use multi-tasking for on a daily basis that it's a requirement for your phone? I guess the only thing I've ever used that would require multi-tasking is listening to music while using other apps. Outside of this every other app I have does what I need it to with no multi-tasking required. I hear this argument alot yet I don't hear any reason people really need multi-tasking. It's a nice luxury.... maybe, but I don't see a real NEED.

How about you answer this question? How many of the 1000,000 apps do you actually use? Do you have all 1000 fart apps on your phone? How about the 1200 different Calendars? I bet you have that I Haz Kittens app doncha? Maybe the zippo lighter app?

i use multitasking everyday. I just hold the bb button and scroll and i can have tons of apps open at once. oh wait the iphone only has one sole button. please apple for your 4th iphone change the boring design up a bit.

I'm with HOVA. I used to be one of those people that ragged on the iPhone's inability to "multi-task" but the longer I've had my BB, the more I realize that I don't do that much of it. In fact I usually find that if I have a bunch of apps open, I end up leaving one or more open throughout the day, due to the fact that I get involved in other things, like work, class, family, etc. And to *kilari*, I'll keep my Mac with it's "lowly" share of the market and lack of viruses. I can't stand all the bullshit anti-virus software on EVERY fucking PC I ever use! Those programs are always popping up while I'm in the middle of typing a paper, or launching a program. Say what you want, but Apple's products just...work. But don't get me started on how much I can't stand ATT! Ugh, VZW for life!
