@Apple Fan It is not just you. Proof of the intense innovation occurring that even "Apple Fan" would admit being drawn to other devices besides those Steve Jobs' makes with fairy dust and the blood of unicorns.
@Apple Fan iPhone 4g can suck it. I am a verizon customer and I'm sick of waiting...I bet if they do get an iphone it will probably be a CDMA 3gs -- I bet AT&T will get the 4g iphone...even so, it's not going to be that great. I seriously doubt it will have digital video output (maybe displayport -- you know that POS connector Apple pushes that no one uses and you have to get a 70$ adapter (that requires power btw) for it to work with any normal HDTV \ Display) -- the only plus on the iphone 4g is the front facing cam... Why moto didn't include one on the shadow -- I'm not sure...maybe it will have one?
@DoctarPeppar I'm looking and see no sign of it... =| It personally doesn't matter to me, I probably wouldn't use it so much. But its always better to have more than just enough.
Believe it or not, the iPhone 4 combined with OS 4 is the first Apple handset I've ever found remotely impressive, and even with the Shadow and the Evo I still do. Maybe not as good as HTC and Motorola's offerings, but it still looks damn impressive in my opinion.
@emagine "intense innovation" and "motorola" used in the same context? LOL! yeah, I want whatever you've been smoking.
and actually, to correct you, this doesn't appeal to me one bit. I've used my friend's android phone and it's still a sub-par experience overall as far as I'm concerned. My money is going towards the next iphone.
@Apple Fan There are android zealots and iphone zealots... but, There isn't much heard from blackberry zealots.. are they shy and retiring or just not on the internet?
@digitalgopher Give credit where credit is due. Motorola has made a comeback considering their last great phone (in terms of sales) was the razr. This was years ago. Then they do nothing for a long time, they were dying, and the Droid comes out among others with many more to come. Though they may not have been as revolutionary as was the creation of the iphone by Apple. They certainly took an opportunity with Android and were successful. I would say the first phone that was comparable to the iphone.
@emagine you bring up some good points. I do realize that they were dead in the water essentially and came back strong. And I'm certainly willing to give credit where credit is due, but shouldn't that credit go to Google instead of Motorola? What I'm trying to say is that wasn't the Droid considered successful because of Android and not so much Motorola? I would think it's mostly because it was the first company to bring Android to the masses. right?
@Apple Fan for apple to beat the HTC EVO with android 2.2 on it the iphone 4g/hd would have to get up and walk around...fix me breakfast in the morning...and scratch my back...
@digitalgopher Software is only as good as the hardware it runs on. Without one the other cannot function. You may think that making a good device is so simple because the devices themselves seem simple. By simple I mean keep the hardware out of the way of the software. To make a complex device seem simple and also make that device of sound build quality and to make it fairly thin takes a lot of engineering. Motorola's problem is that they have been making gimmicky devices since the Razr. The Droid was their first non-gimmicky device in a long time.
@xdreamer I have almost lost faith in blackberry... especially touchsceeens. I left my storm 2 for android and never missed it. Rim will have to impress me to get me back. As for apple.. give me flash support and ill think about it.. maybe.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
Is it just me or is the iPhone HD looking less and less appealing every day?

@Apple Fan
It's not just you.
@Apple Fan
its just you
@Sled
If two people above you just said it isn't just him, you're obviously incorrect.
In other word...FAIL.

@Apple Fan Even Nokia's N8 is amazing...Apple better pull something good next month...
@xdreamer
rim people have more important things in life than being a fanboy ie texting...

@xdreamer BlackBerry fans are too busy doing serious bidness to care about posting on the internets.

@digitalgopher There were a lot of shit Andrioid phones, though. Moto made the best handset so far at the time.

@xdreamer there phones can't compare, that's why you never hear from Blackberry zealots.
@xdreamer they have trouble surfing the net to comment lol
@xdreamer People who actually have stuff to do get blackberry! we get iphone to waste time and others get android for tinkering and having fun!
