Man buys Pre and then smashes his iPhone
Share:
If you were to buy a Palm Pre to replace an iPhone, what would you do with the latter device? Some would immediately put it up for sale on Ebay. Others might pass it on to a sibling or give it to a friend. And there would be some who would just stick it in a drawer just in case it was needed later. But no one could have guessed what our friend John did with his iPhone. Grabbing a steel hammer out of his toolbox, he smashed his old phone beyond repair.
Maybe John was angry with Apple and the iPhone. Or perhaps it was AT&T that set him off. Either way, it proves that no matter how indestructable a touchscreen might claim to be, all it takes is a few swings with a decidely low tech weapon like a hammer to destroy it.

In a few days he's probably gonna want to go back to the iphone especially with 3.0 coming out.

If he'd had a Storm, he wouldn't have wanted to get the Pre in the first place. He'd wait for Storm2, then break out his "little friend" LOL

I THINK IS GREAT THAT HE GOT A PALM PRE, BUT I THINK HE SHOULD HAVE SOLD THAT PHONE, EASILY 100.00-150.00 BUCKS BUT NOT 250.00 AS THIS WAS A 1ST GENERATION IPHONE AND YOU CAN GET A REBUR 3G FOR 99.99 ON ATT WEBSITE.

3.0 wouldn't help the slowness of EDGE or the dropped calls on ATT and there are still plenty of bugs still present on the Storm in addition to paying more for less services

I'll bet the iPhone lovers who work for this site are crying like babies right now. Relax... it's only a phone. Pretty soon there'll be other ways to communicate without wires that will replace cell phones entirely.
