The Iphone hate is not a hate. It is disappointment with Apple strategies.

They don't develop the best PDA, it is disappointing. Iphone is too
"attractive". More operetta less stringent PDA/mobile phone with best human
interface. The same problem is lack of OS X tablet or HWR. I feel it this
way.

We, members of the list, feel that "Newton" like device is necessary for
further development or a human race. It should be only a few decisions away.
But decisions don't come. So, we are disappointed and don't accept half way
solutions. This way of thinking could be a problem, too. Every-time I want
to change a mobile phone or a laptop I find it difficult to get something
really interesting. The mainstream products are not very exciting.
