The iphone sucks


I'm still waiting for the world to release a cellphone that isn't missing any features. I spent some time using the iphone this month, and it's completely great - but it will continue to frustrate me, as long as it has all of these issues:

Proprietary plug only for data (please can we have standard USB)
∙ Proprietary plug only for power (please can we have standard USB)
∙ Not USB disk (flash drive)
∙ Proprietary software for music interface (just let me drag/drop my mp3s ok?)
∙ One-way-only image transfer
∙ Horrible keyboard. Why not use rotating screen for big wide keyboard?
∙ Missing native apps: googletalk, latitude. The browser hacks don't cut it.

Next I'd like to try out an Android phone. I really like keyboards with actual physical buttons.
