this is a stupid post. from the outside looking in, it seems like you f-ing fashion designers could care less about the person next to you than your phones. Yes you are always texting, YES you are all snobs, YES you probably wont like the way that normal people look down on you because of the way you act. What would give people the idea that you are mean if not that you truely are? so cuff all of you!

Are they crazy? I am the only insane one (or two) chicks who still use a BB and only bc I am waiting for Verizon to get the iPhone (which they should by June, I HOPE). Almost everyone from PR to Marketing to Manufacturing to Designers to Street Style folks use an iPhone!

What a ridiculous article. It makes you wonder what their editor was thinking in letting this lame brained piece through.

I have an iPhone and I adore it. I use it for everything. Absolutely everything. Its capabilities are amazing and far outweight the BBM pros. (Though I fail to see how a BBM conversation will lead to a hook-up whereas a text message conversation won’t. Also, that’s your PRO to having a Blackberry, Michael Williams??)

I myself work in the business side of design (sourcing and production quality), rather than the creative side, and I rely heavily on my iPhone. I also know of several design companies that issue iPhones to all of their employees as business phones.

And, who “gingerly [taps] at [the touch] screen” while typing?? I use both thumbs and I’m probably faster than Steven Rojas on his Blackberry.

Of course, there is no right or wrong answer, but the author avoided pros of the iPhone completely. He couldn’t possibly have reached the conclusion that Blackberries are better through interviewing a few Blackberry-carrying men. Poor journalism.

that is insane! i can’t believe not one single woman was asked in this piece. that said, even with at&t’s awful, terrible, horrendous service (i’ve considered quitting bloggging to start a grass roots campaign against the monopoly.)

it took all but 2 seconds to fall in love with my iphone, and i’m never going back. as far as kool-aid… whatever, i’ve been an apple user back when they weren’t popular and the only people who used them were graphic designers (which I was), before all the imacs, ipods, and iphones, and even though they’re getting a little too cocky and a bit evil, i still prefer apple products.

besides, it’s always the smarmy dudes who play the hater whenever something revolutionary happens. so much for mommies and poseurs.

OMG I can’t believe these guys are for real. Half of them sound like they haven’t matured past 6th grade. And what is up with guys writers trying so hard to sound witty by writing like cavemen?

I do agree about AT&T in NYC, I have an iPhone and was thinking about switching because of the service but then had a friend unlock it for me, so I’m can use another service.
