I think everyone in this thread is taking my comment out of perspective.
I want to start by saying that, I am a geek and I love shiny sexy gadgets. The iPhone is the first time I've ever felt like I have everything I could ever need in one little brick shaped device. The holy grail if you will.
My (ex)gf never respected my interest in gadgets, she liked things like hiking and watching movies or playing games together. That didn't ever interest me (it used to a little...but that was before my eyes were opened to constant data being available to me any time I wanted).
The fact that she couldn't understand why I wanted to play on the iPhone (between jailbreaking/hacking with it, and social networking, and crossword games) showed me that she wasn't aware of my needs. After she split up with me it took me a while to figure this out, but I stopped being sad once I realized that's the problem!
Every once in a while I'll bump into her on the street but as we're talking I pretend to get a text message and take out my phone to see if shes changed and she always gets that sad look on her face. She hasn't changed and that proves it. She told me that she hates the iphone and not me because the iphone killed the man she fell in love with, but i say, get over it! I'm an apple guy at heart!
