I have hated every nokia piece of shit that i have owned. I had 3 within the first year and a half of my service, and each sucked that much more than the last. As of right now I will stick to samsung, as i have only had one fail ever in the last 4 years.

zing! gotta love those apple haters.

I always knew you loved yuppie, starbucks drinking, volkswagen driving tools. I say this whilst typing on my Macbook Pro. I didn't say i hate apple, but from my experiences the iPhone has been a big salty piece of shit. I think my biggest beef is with AT&T, because i would probably purchase an iPhone if t-mobile released it.

That's the most brilliant explanation of why Europe's GSM should be applied in North America.

Thank you.

Thanks, I kinda liked it too :)

Or just get a World Phone? and have verizon and sprint go GSM

I don't mind the carriers here. On Sprint I have my PDA phone which works fine with a hacked ROM.

For my personal AT&T phone, I just have an unlocked K810i that I bought in Manila. Does just about everything, and no features are removed.

I'll make a sweeping generalization and say anyone with an iPhone is a douchebag. :hitler:

I'm hoping google will save us and put the telcos out of business forever.

Think about it this way: What if your Ford could only be driven on roads built by Ford? and your Chevy could only be driven on roads built by GM? It would be a complete catastrofuck. There would be redundant roads everywhere and cars would cost a fortune.

i bought my phone from china... no jokes

The worst thing in the US are text message costs, it costs next to nothing to send text messages compared to voice over air but texts cost something like 10c a message or something... rip off

The iphone only sold here because of the logo, which doesnt count for shit abroad.

The reason we don't have all the cool stuff everyone else does is because of the lack of competition. All the carriers here set their prices to super high amounts and don't bother to compete except on 'network features' like MyCircle or MyFaves or whatever the fuck....They all charge at least $30/mo for a barebones plan, and they all require contracts.
Not to mention we run several different kinds of networks (besides just GSM) which means every provider needs it's own towers all over the country. So we get stuck paying huge monthly bills because each carrier has to build their own towers. 5 times the number of towers = 5 times the cost. I'm hoping this will change with the FCC's sale of new broadcast spectrums later this year. If the carriers could move to one band (like GSM) and use one kind of broadband access, the price to consumers would plummet because they wouldn't have to all develop their own redundant/overlapping infrastructures.
