Only thing I can say is ... You're absolute right!

Exept for friday afternoons at heise or golem, where I read the funny trolls and flamewars for my personel amusement.

Do not care listening to those people, and your life will be a lot more convenient. People just lost the ability to discuss (without trying to proselytize someone along the way).

Another human ability that internet is going to kill silently.

You asked, I'll answer:
I'm using MMS every day - passively. Via MMS I'm getting important emails in realtime - a service of O2. So MMS is a feature I would definitely miss if I had an IPhone. What I want to say: there's always someone who is missing one specific feature.

If you want to have the ultimate example of what you just wrote, just look at the comments to ANY article on the German news portal heise.de ... When I'm in the mood I find that behaviour quite amusing otherwise it's just sad.

hi thomas, imho it's a matter of 1. free speech 2. main stream (revolution by "underdogs").
if you start a huge marketing for a device you'll always get criticism like with every film or book or car. in some cases this might also be intended because it's also publicity. the bigger the marketing is, the more criticism you'll get. if not the marketing is the trigger, than os-religion - people like dogmas.
additionally we live in this over communicated world with all it's advantages and disadvantages: blogs, news, twitter, skype, jabber, mms, sms, mobile phone, email, ...
i've got no clue how to get the advantages without the disadvantages but i try it every day ;-)
since i'm also pissed by the trolls, for me the only possibility is to stop reading this kind of "free speech" or ignore it.

p.s. the iphone sucks 'cause you can't send contacts and connect bluetooth devices ;-)

@all: Thanks for your "non trolling" comments. :-D

@Marcus: Sure, but that's no reason to rant on other peoples work.

@Susanne: Yeap. Most of the time it's funny but some of the comments are so unbelievable stupid that it physically hurts.

@Gina: Yes the bluetooth thing pisses me off. As I told you some time ago, I never sent any contact data but if I would like to do so I think there is an application in the AppStore that can send contacts via e-mail. I'm not yet sure if it costs anything.
