Yeah Frank, I know that anytime I point out a shortcoming in something, it's because I'm threatened by it.
If the iPhone had video, any phone that came out with a camera that couldn't take video would be met by "lolololol crap phone, doesn't do video, iphone rawks dood!!!1".
Hey Frank! I bet that I am able to type way faster and more accurately on my physical qwerty keyboard than you can on the iPhone's virtual one.
VCAST? Ha! I laugh. Since my mogul runs Windows mobile, I'm able to stream live television from my Vista Media Center PC. Also, I'm able to remotely control my computer with Logmein or GoToMyPC.
Also, how hard would it be to program some copy/paste & video functions. It's just software! Didn't Steve say that that was the new paradigm?
Now that i have blown all of your arguments, please, never return with your trolling habits.
The iPhone is supposed to be a smartphone. If you want to compare with plain phones, there are plenty of sub $40 phones that can only make phone calls. But the iPhone is Fail there, because nobody has rave reviews of the iPhones call quality being especially good (well except maybe people in the Apple boy Army). In fact, it's speakerphone volume sucks in comparison to many phones.
At its price, the iPhone is fair game to make fun of shortcomings -- such as lacking video or MMS. And its funny because most iPhone owners are paying a tax for their desire for cute (exception being ones who use the awesome web browser).
@Johan S Matt's argument was against the iPhone, not for. He was illustrating the point that iPhone fanboys would mercilessly make fun of phones without video capabilities if the iPhone were to have it.

Any video of the fire? As the spectators were a bunch of iPhone users probably not...
Haha good one Surur :P
Hmm, what are the chances that some mysterious Apple devices are up on eBay in the next week?
I think it's pretty cool that the the iPhone is such a threat that all the bashers can continue to come up with is 'it doesn't do video".
It's a phone. Not a camcorder.
Oh yeah, MMS and cut & paste. The other 'deal breakers'. Man, you guys have it made with your qwerty keyboards and your VCAST.

Where is the google streetview car when you need it...
Apple should put better cameras in their iphones, it helps in cases like this, it's for their own good.
@Matt
Why does the damn thing have a camera then?
