    So far I only heard it was scary. You're talking Stockholm syndrome, right? :D

    Too little, too late. All these redirect tactics and pretending you still have your 900 are not going to help :p

    I know. But you're still showing 900, and that's gone, isn't it? :p 900.png

    So what's luring you guys to the "dark side"? :confused: Tim Cook? Apple Maps? :)P) Feel sorry for Apple because stock prices are slumping and bloggers are talking about them losing their "mojo"? Bored and looking for something different? But seriously, now seems an odd time to try out an iPhone for the first time, most Apple fans appear to be bored with the same OS GUI for 5+ years and are complaining that other phones and OS's are more interesting and innovative.

    I might give WP a whirl soon just to see what it's about. A friend of mine has a Nokia "MeGo" phone, and actually, the UI looks pretty nice. He does have Skype and some other useful things on there, but I'm wondering if it makes sense to go with a OS that isn't supported anymore... Or maybe I'll wait for the new BlackBerry OS, that should just be around the corner and looks promising...

    Wait a minute, I thought Apple Maps didn't lure you to the dark side, they just directed you there... regardless of where you wanted to go? But if I had to guess the reason for the move was to bring some extra activity to WA :D

    UPDATE: It is actually 3 as of an hour back. :D
    Lol Joe, I got an iPhone 5, 32 gb in white.
    I liked and still do, WP very much, you definitely should give it a try. I have thought about MeeGo on/off but it is hard to justify. I had high hopes on BB10 but the launch and subsequent specs and reviews really show it as almost catching up to the other OS, nothing new.
    That sounds like a good enough reason to me. :cool:

    May I remind you that given the opportunity to talk me out of it, you declined to do so.:p

    I'm just wondering why iFly hasn't showed up here yet? Surely Charlyee purchasing an iPhone must have triggered an alert somewhere in and underground Apple blogging lair :p
    ...actually, I think the real reason is quite simple:
    ...she just ran out of new OS's to try :D

    For once in my life I actually thought ahead. I decided ganging up on you once you buy it will be a lot more rewarding :D That, and I swore off participating in projects that have no chance in hell of succeeding :p

    My Droid X is nearing the end of its life and my boss is all Apple, so I MAY end up being the next iSheep in the herd... Oh the Droid DNA looks so delicious though. Decisions, decisions.
