"\"We've learned and struggled for a few years here figuring out how to make a decent phone,\" Ed Colligan apparently laughed about with John Markoff last Thursday morning. \"PC guys are not going to just figure this out. They're not going to just walk in.\" Ed, baby, sweetheart, a couple quick reminders. First: it's not hard to beat \"decent,\" especially when your phones are on the 2004 cutting edge of design and you still haven't managed to slim it like a Q or WiFi it like an HTC. Second: PC guys already did figure it out -- that's why you're running Windows Mobile on your phones, remember? Not that we really have to continue, but third: as John Hodgman and Justin Long would have us remember, the sad, disgruntled differences between \"PC guys\" and Mac guys tend to transcend borders and cultures. Gates isn't Jobs, and Steve's phone certainly isn't going to be riddled with the same issues as our beloved WinMo. No, the iPhone will have its own set of annoying issues, but believe you us, Ed, Apple will \"just walk in,\" so you'd better have a few and-one-more-thing-s up those sleeves of yours if you're thinking about stopping a mass defection.[Via PalmInfocenter]"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
