nice article on how the iPhone will become this year's No. 1 christmas
present. it's fair and balanced, a good read...

By Keith Shaw, Network World, 11/19/07

Steve Jobs has made my job harder. If he hadn't stood on the stage at
MacWorld in January and unleashed the iPhone on the world, I'd probably
be more excited about this year's crop of Cool Yule Tools, Network
World's annual roundup of the hottest technology toys and gift ideas.

As I opened up the hundreds of packages arriving in the office over the
past few months, however, I began to realize that the iPhone has skewed
the curve in terms of what's really exciting, innovative and fun in
technology. Like the Patriots compared with the rest of the NFL, there's
the iPhone - and then there's everything else.

It also didn't help that Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system has
laid a giant egg - not just with corporate users but also with consumers
looking to find some excitement in the PC space. When we were trying out
the PCs and notebooks sent us this year, we could judge our enthusiasm
for the hardware by looking at whether the system had XP (yay!) or Vista
(ugh!).

As Oxie-moron says, "fair and balanced". Just like Faux News....

What, as opposed to you the drooling fanboy?

Lets see you are angry because the iPhone displays a caller's picture
as described in your post. Since that is a feature of CONTACTS in
Microsoft Windows to store a contact's picture you must not be using
OUTLOOK to its fullest. My CONTACTS have pictures associated with
them. But the iPhone shares anypictures with OUTLOOK on a sync it is a
real easy way to keep your PC OUTLOOK up to date.

Now that feature sort of is on Verizon's phones like the EnVee and the
new Voyager but it is not a two way street, at least with the EnVee.
Crippled crapware from VZ.

So how come you are not spouting off about the Verizon phones that
sort of have the same feature? Not as well implimented as iPhone but
similar.
