> [@Fry](#): > > The iPhone’s more like the Scion tC of cell phones: Decent piece, though nothing special about it, yet a lot of owners think it’s somehow unique and special and outperforms damn near everything else out there. I like this analogy. The iphone population, as most of apple’s population gets the products for the brand name. They feel obligated to get these products regardless of it’s features or lack thereof. If you look at the two phone operating systems (iOS and Android), Android is clearly the more dominant and functional OS. Now even with OS 4.0 coming out, the iPhone is still going to be playing catch up when Froyo is released. ---

The iPhone is definitely at best a used Lexus. ---

I’d say a Miata…it’s small and compact, curvaceous, not a whole lot of features, and not that fast. ---

I laughed at the Apple sales person when they asked me if I wanted to keep my unlimited plan. I used 4-6GB a month depending on if I am traveling or not. ---

> [@Joe](#): > > I heard they were getting super fussy with which new phones you could use SERO with now though…and its not like a GSM network when you can just get your own unlocked phone… They are… As of right now the touch pro 2 seems to be the best phone you can use on a SERO plan… I was rocking the sense UI but it murders the battery, and windows 6.5 is super shitty, so then I started dual booting android software which surprisingly for being cooked from a nexus 1 rom runs more stable than windows 6.5, but still not totally bug free as its in beta. As of last night I am trying SPB mobile shell and so far its alright, it was free so its worth trying. I keep trying to get them to let me rock a newer android phone on my plan but they shut me down everytime… I’m gonna ride the train a little while longer, cant beat the price.
