Το iPhone 4 είναι τα Vista της Apple;

Θα θέλατε καρκίνοι, έτσι; Δεν σας χαλάει που ΕΥΤΥΧΩΣ η Apple δεν είναι η Micro$oft και το iPhone 4 δεν είναι τα Vista ή τα Windows 7. Δεν σας χαλάει και καθόλου.

Do those free bumpers really mean the iPhone 4 is Apple's Vista? Let's see..

Kevin Turner, Microsoft's chief operating officer, certainly thought so. So we thought it might be worth a point-by-point comparison

Comparisons are odious. That's why it's usually journalists and marketing people who indulge in them. So indulge me while I pick some apart.

Quoth Kevin Turner, Microsoft's chief operating officer - the man who makes sure that the money is coming in right, who makes sure that the wheels of the company's bank accounts are turning fast enough to satisfy shareholders - earlier this week: "One of the things that I want to make sure that you know today is that you're going to be able to use the Windows Phone 7 and not have to worry about how you're holding it to make a phone call." He said it at Microsoft's Worldwide Partner Conference, adding: "It looks like iPhone 4 might be their Vista."

Though Turner wasn't to know it, Apple was even then preparing its press conference to explain what (if anything) it was going to do about the whole iPhone 4 reception issue. 22 days after the release of the iPhone, Jobs led a press conference explaining that anyone who'd bought an iPhone 4 could have a free "bumper". (The office joke: 1 day to diagnose the problem, 21 days to prepare and rehearse the presentation.) Those reception problems? Common to all phones, insisted Jobs, who deflected lots of questions in his customary expert way.

That leaves the "PR experts" who earlier this week told Cult of Mac that Apple would have to recall the iPhone 4 looking pretty stupid. Because they were stupid. Pause for a moment and remind yourself: on what grounds are items recalled? Oh yes, when they cause injury or death, or pose a hazard to the public. Losing your data reception because you (avoidably) covered the exposed antenna definitely likes in the category that Twitter calls #firstworldproblems. The idea that Apple would recall a device on that basis is simply laughable.

Μόνοι σας τα λέτε. Μόνοι σας τα γυρνάτε. Μόνοι σας τα ίδια και τα ίδια. Ένα μάτσο χάλια είστε. Και εκεί η Apple να τα σπάει σαν ΚΑΜΙΑ άλλη εταιρία και ξανά προς τη δόξα να τραβά.

Λασπολόγοι, κοπρολάγνοι καρκίνοι φάτε τη σκόνη της Apple. Ούτε και η σκόνη της δεν σας αξίζει αλλά τέλος πάντων...
