Apple made a fine product BUT

treats users like shit by locking the phone and uses crap technology like EDGE. Other issues are minor

They fucked up on not opening it up to 3rd parties. And they fucked up by making it locked. And they fucked up by doing the deal with ATT, which controls the carriers. Who is defending them--I wont get an IPhone until ATT is out of the equation, unless they loosen up their arrangements

Many companies have locked their phones with carriers before but when you take it to service, they don't kick you out
