this short post will lack a lot in terms of punctuation and finesse as it was written on my phone while sitting in the park.
no i havent bought an iPhone - its just too big. i agree the iPhone does everything beautifully. until you go to put it in your pocket. at which point you discover that a decent sized screen requires a very big pair of pants.
this was written on an iPhone 'pretender' - the LG Viewty - which has a web browser, email, camera, and a whole bunch of other things that sounds very similar to the iPhone. until you use it, at which point it becomes clear that it isn't very similar at all. more frustration than intuition. more feature wish list than usable stuff
smaller than the iPhone it is, though. and with a little patience, i can log in to our site and tap this message out into my blog.
so - the size of an iphones screen is just right - and the size of an iphone is just wrong. would the iPhone be spoilt if it was smaller? i think so. in my opinion, apple haven't solved the problem at all - they've produced an interesting device, but not a great phone.
