But believe it or not, the guys over at cnet have done a comprehensive drill-down of all the failings of the iPhone, and given it the 'worst phone ever' badge.

Apple mocks the Windows 7 launch Those crazy marketing geniuses at Apple are once again doing what they do best - poking fun at Microsoft. These latest videos in the ever long series of Mac vs PC adverts are IMHO just as amusing as always. Though I've always thought the PC guy (John Hodgman) is much more likeable (and sympathetic) than the Mac guy (Justin Long) and wonder if th...
