You should just delete the mandroids posts and reopen your Iphone thread. We could even make a new rule that mandroid isn't allowed in any threads related to Apple products if you want.
Even the PAWN crowd typically recognizes when arguing with someone is simply going to hear the same two to three sentences repeated over and over again every time a subject is brought up. Note how they used to laugh at N8 instead of rising to most of his posts.
It's pretty amazing that someone who has so carefully educated himself on so many aspects of his profession remains so utterly blind to the real world needs and wants of many users.
I saw yet another thread going down the exact same road you take it down every single time and decided that, rather than watch it degenerate into stupidity, I'd just kill it now to save time.

The real world needs of most users isn't the iPhone .3% isn't most cellphone users.
How about we look at their biggest market, the US:
The real world wants and needs of most US smartphone owners are RIM (which is again a small fraction of most cellphone users - most people still don't need smartphones period).
