yeah i'd like to know where byakko got the perception that apple makes these things affordable
Tablet prices were anywhere from $800 to $5000 until the iPad. Today, they're between 500 and 800 (high end stuff peak in the $1200-$1500 range), which was the price the iPad came out at.
BlackBerries before 2007 were over $800 and not designed for the general public at all.
Whether Apple's things are affordable or not, they're more so than those kinds of items were before then.

I insist that I'm not an Apple fanatic at all, but this is what I saw. Nobody was using those things before Apple's versions, the BlackBerry and so were too expensive and aimed to be used for work. Even if Apple users are sheep praising a guru, usage of these things changed.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

I agree with both of you actually.
Apple has made things 'affordable' by middle class standards.
They took several impractically priced devices and made them reasonable for the common man.

At the same time, I'm not speaking for Apple's foreign presence, but in the states their image is exclusively high-end. They know that the lower class isn't their clientele (unless they're saving up to buy an iPod), and they hold themselves as such. Their stores are located in only the most wealthy areas. You won't find one at the average mall. It will probably be beside Nordstrom. Once you get inside, they definitely give you the feeling that if you don't usually shop in the complex they're located, you probably shouldn't be there.

There's one more thing about the iPhone I'm having trouble remembering and I can't find anything specific enough by research, so I'll ask here if anyone knows. Before, Internet on a cellphone was with shitty WAP. After, real browsers and HTML popped up, making it actually usable and casual. Was that Apple or was it there before the iPhone ? (Blackberry etc.)

  • My surname is not Foster, FYI.
Sorry for the bump, but I must say...

Do you know what this reminds me of?

Something rectangluar and white and has a creepy tone to it.
Good news for all of you.

I'm banned forever.

Please, just let the ban quietly pass and whatever you do, I beg you, DO NOT CHEER. Do not celebrate that you've won about the fact that I'm banned forever. Let it slide, PLEASE DO NOT CHEER. Don't cause me to shitpost again. I didn't even recall making a shitty post before I got perma'd. I hated this forum anyway. It doesn't even feel I'm taking part in a MUGEN forum.

Well, ungoodbye to you all and I hope you all burn in hell.

Iphone was the first real mobile internet browser although I must use the disclaimer that it didn't have flash but could play youtube with the app. So full browser minus flash, if you consider it a full browser.

Before that... it was like using Lynx. But Blackberry did have the best of those kinds of shitty browsers. Windows was starting get there too, but they were using text links and a shitty mouse ball.

Two years before the iPhone popped around, I used Opera at my Nokia E62 and it was awesome.
