The iPhone is far and away the hottest gadget on the market. Apple has sold over 6 million of them since the iPhone launched last year. And with the release of the cheaper and faster iPhone 3G, the company is sure to hit, and surpass, their goal of 10 million sold by the end of the year. But not everyone is happy with the iPhone's advanced touch screen technology... women with long fingernails are having lots of trouble getting the popular device to work for them. The iPhone's touchscreen is designed to respond to the electrical charge emitted by a person's fingertips, and since fingernails do not emit a charge, it becomes difficult for women with long nails to operate the touchscreen. 10.4 million women now use SmartPhones, a number that has more than doubled since last year, making females the fastest growing segment of users of these devices by far. So what can Apple do about their “fingernail problem?” Some consumers have demanded a stylus attachment for the iPhone, but others argue that an easy to lose stylus would negate the very point of Apple's innovative touchscreen design. If you do really want a stylus, you can buy aftermarket models designed to work with the iPhone for around 20 to 25 dollars. But a better suggestion is to try to use the side of your finger or thumbs to type and swipe the iPhones touchscreen. And if that doesn't work, maybe it's time to think about a more female friendly blackberry... or a new manicure, ladies. I'm Marc Gittleman for TekieTV.Com. Keep watching for more news, reviews, and tips for the best new high tech gadgets on the market. Distributed by Tubemogul.

  • I have nails because I tend to bite mine too short until they hurt, but besides all that Apple should have the technology to do what LG does- my chocolate recognizes the touch of my nails after calibration I mean really come on people why should anyone have to bend, make everyone happy its possible. Apple rep told me to cut my nails which are not long at all, so thats your answer- hmmm screw that there are too many phones out there that don't cost $300.00 or more.

  • What the actual fuck. Why are you all bad mouthing women? Indeed it is because deep down you are torn apart because you have always been unsuccessful with the opposite sex, so you badmouth them on youtube..... How... utterly sad and...........gay.

    P.S Thats a generalized 'you' im not talking to anyone in particular.

  • .....deal! So ladies get over it!

  • I have long nails(not crazy long) and work my iPad and just ordered my iPhone 4. Typing on a keyboard can hurt if I am typing a lot but it's not that big of a dea

  • of course they rnt good at em females are devices built by man to cook and clean

  • Tough fucking shit for women who have long nails.......cut the fuckers.....they will grow back!!

  • get the hell over it nobody wants to here you complain... jeez fuck women

  • The long fingernails showed in your video is an exaggeration. I have nails and I wish I could use capacitive touchscreen phones (not iPhone but Android phones).

    Other than missing the use of multi touch, I'd rather stick to my fingernail friendly Windows mobile devices for now.

  • Long fingernails are indeed ugly.

  • Hows about not have these longs ass ugly ass fingernails in the first place. I feel sorry for those men they are dating. Imagine getting a handjob with those?
