Top 5 Reasons the IT Department Doesn't Love the iPhone

[boylepw]

I work in IT, and the simplest reason for someone in IT not to have an iPhone is that they are crap! Open source FTW

The keyboard rant is Ridiculous, Keyboards are WORTHLESS to me as I speak MORE than 1 language, the Ipods Virtual keyboard allows me to have English, Spanish, German & Italian keyboards that I can ACTUALLY use vs just a worthless English one with missing keys like ñÑ£¥ The Multiple virtual keyboards are the Ipods BEST feature......

The Multiple virtual keyboards are the Ipods BEST feature......

The MAIN problem is that you need iTunes to register/activate each device and it's a terrible way of trying to manage/lock-down many devices. Maybe you could deal with 5 iPhones at a company...but what if you had to manage 25...or 50...or 500? That's why iPhones are terrible for businesses - they are too hard to manage.

[phyk3n]

YOu can tell this is old, when the iphone now supports all that stuff.

[comneard55]

dont they use ipod touches now for the remote things

[skweekyd]

really old vid but at 6:00 he was telling you that when the iphone battery is DEAD, you can not buy a replacement battery. not whatever you were trying to explain XD

[yolopsynanga]

i jus got the nokia 5310 xpress music mobile phone and it does all what the iphone does in less detail, but who needs all of that

[mikto]

yolopsynanga - you're funny!

[yolopsynanga]

why, because im fat lol

[creativeatheart]

yh, fun to have a go with, but eventually pointless!

[PlayerXT]

I have 3 reasons for avoiding the iPhone.

The service it's locked to is expensive

The phone itself is expensive

There's nothing to warrant replacing my K800i

[creativeatheart]

Use an iphone for a month - you'll never go back!

[KusuriRX]

I did, right back to my e60i... my e60i didn't go all smudgy and scratchy, and the screen didn't crack because i sat down with it in my pocket... oops...

[PlayerXT]

I would consider one along with several other phones including the Nokia N95 if my k800i broke and I needed a data service but for now I don't see the point in replacing a perfectly good phone.

[IKLIPTIC]

Your right Chris just went left instead of right and was still wrong. He offer an option for a problem but avoided the solution completely.

[Rumblo]

...

They don't support iPhone coverage in North Dakota.

Goddammit.

[shinobininja090]

i hate ipods

[blade831]

This is not a buisiness orianted phone, but its for fun, dont think this is a blackjack. How i wants one!

~KrnSidez

[IKLIPTIC]

Get an MDA instead of the Blackjack, most of my friends have tried it and the Pearl and keep coming back to the Wing, MDA and BlackBerry. I have had an MDA for almost 2 years now and most of what Chris says about the iPhone i completely dissagree with. A removeable battery a non issue? Crazy. A Physical keyboard a non issue? Crazy. No styles provided, many issues with the iPhone. I want one but untill they offer all the things mentioned i wont buy one.

[nikonluva959]

what about Opera mini for the web browser thing??

[pspaddict01]

neww iphone 2008?

[airguitar03]

this guy is an ass

[EDS01475634763]

You are an ass, If you have no polite comments dont make comments simple as that.

[DaMirrorLink]

im not a fan of ipod or anything, I just buy or burn my CDs

[mickeleh]

Chris, I think you missed the battery point. It's not about the battery running down. It's about having to replace the battery. You have to send the iPhone to Apple for that. Your charger won't keep you productive if the phone is somewhere in Appleville.

The reality is... by the time the battery wears out... I'm going to want the latest iPhone, not the new battery. They got me.

[kippis05]

Yeah, also don't forget the fact that it typically costs from $79-$100 depending on where you get your iPhone serviced... Apple's strategy is to manufacture devices that are great in the here and now, but eventually fail down the road (appox. 2 yrs.) so you go and purchase another device. It's the corporate world, I guess.......

[tomomersey]

a good phone by apple, but it could have been better, like better camera quality, and better positioning. but overall a good phone

[mykeman83]

Apple products are quite addictive. I've come to realize that. I just moved to mac recently with me buying an imac 20". Its so so great. It makes life much easier once u get comfortable with the operating system. Guess what? Now i also want to purchase an ipod touch. Dont need an iphone coz im into flip phones so i have a motorola k1 which i love.

[Spamantor]

I was gonna buy a mac but its seems so aswome
