10 Reasons I Don’t Want a iPhone

Sarah Perez on January 9th, 2007

Iphone 1. I just got a $300 iPod
2. If I put my iPhone & my keys in the same pocket, will the iPhone come out covered in scratches?
3. A bad iTunes update could crash my cell phone
4. iPhone accessories will not be cheap
5. No expandable memory
6. No 3G
7. Not a Smartphone (no Exchange/Office)
8. No over-air downloading from iTunes store
9. Mugging potential greatly increased
10. I don’t have $500

OK, I’d certainly take an iPhone if you wanted to give me one. It is rather stylish and cool. However, I’m thinking that $500 would be better spent on the Windows Home Server (see post below).

  1. The new release has sure helped our stock go up though! $2000 in 2 days isn’t bad, huh?

  2. Battery, like the iPod, not user serviceable.

    suck.

  3. all valid points, but damn it… it looks so cool! I still want one!

  4. I’ll wait off until its had a bit of real world testing and they bring out the next generation / release of the phone - price might come down by then as well

  5. 7. But since it is OSX, wouldn’t you be able to run XP and then VPN to the office to get to your Outlook directly? An extra step, but that would be really awesome!

  6. ramer,

    just because it’s OSX doesn’t mean it’ll run XP. The phone would have required an intel processor… which to my knowledge (which could be wrong) it doesn’t

  7. Looks like they got sued over it now… Kinda hurt our stock a little today.

  8. i know, i know, but how cool would THAT be?!

  9. We phone you groan

  10. I totally agree with you !
    Check what i foudn on You Yube about the iPhone!
    It is hillarious but true!

  11. I highly doubt you’d fit anything else in your pocket with an iPhone!

  12. Hell no!!

    The iPhone is WAAAY TOOOOO BIG!!!
    That thing is freaking huge!!
    The memory actually sounds like a joke

    I rather use my 60GB iPod + my really small cellphone

  13. Let the battery and the 8GB hard drive rot in hell
