Cellphones to Get Common Chargers, But Not Apple iPhone

"iPhone uses the same charger as iPod.

Thats the only good thing about that phone."

I would disagree with that. I think the App store is the best executed method for delivering applications on mobile devices. This is why all of the other major phone manufacturer's are beginning to follow suit. In addition to the easy installation of the apps, are the apps themselves. Whether it be a guitar tuner, Tivo remote, console quality games, or handy utilities. The input method (multi-touch) is by far the most intuitive way of operating a touchscreen phone today.

I'm not sure why you are having problems, but I rarely restart my phone (maybe once a week). I haven't dropped a call yet. This would be more a fault of the carrier, not the phone manufacturer, although there were some issues with switching between 3G and edge, which has since been resolved with a software update. As far as being slow, I have no idea what you are talking about. There was a problem with keyboard lagging at times, but that was also fixed in a software update.

Other than that, it constantly drops calls, has to be reset all the time, and is extremely slow.

Why people buy it, I dont know
