Not sure how you people react in Europe, but here in North America no one is talking about the monopolistic way Microsoft do their business.
I guess you are different than us.

It seems like it's fun here to joke with Windows.
Don't you ever used something other than Windows 95? I have Mac OSX 10.4 and Windows XP and I have zero problems on both.

fatfish said:1. my P900 has flight mode, try telling the air hostess.
2. my phone doesn't come with me out of work (Ilike to think I'm sucessful, part of the satisfaction of being sucessful means I don't need to be at people's beck and call outside worktime)
3. not just upgrades either, I often leave my P900 on the train, simply drop it in a scramble to answer it whilst carrying my sandwhich in the other hand, infact before now it's slid across the dash and gone out the window when I turned a corner and more than once I've actually dropped it in the toilet. I'd be forever reloading my music onto a new phone
4. Add-ons arn't my thing, so it doesn't really bother me
Who knows? I started to seriously think about switching when the G5 came out. The benchmarks were and still are pretty nicefatfish said:Perhaps you should see if it's still the same once you switch it on.
bluefido said:I do think that having a separate iPod/cellphone is useful, but for the majority of people and functions, having one device is the most convenient.
1) a valid issue but not unsolvable;
2) I agree, but many people just don't answer their cellphones. Moreover, I use my cellphone for mostly non-business use anyways so it is always with me;
3) a solvable issue if you can backup the music on the hard drive on your computer; and
4) add-ons usually suck with a few exceptions (my favorite being: the add-on to transfer digital photos).
fatfish said:1. I can't see how this is solvable unless you include spending the whole flight in the toilet.
2. I can agree for non business use, but pray tell me why would anyone want to carry a phone and not answer it.
3. Backing up was built into my scenario, putting all that info back on to something as slow as a phone is a real pain and also I see with a lot of non iTMS services you can only transfer the music a couple of times to new devices. And how does that work if you change networks.

I read an article that stated that aprox. 8 out of 10 employees at msft were using iPods as their mp3 players, ouch , that has to hurt Billy, hehheheh
