They say a picture says a thousand words, and so I’ll just let it do the talking.
Clearly He doesn't know who Musshy is
Just as I was finally starting to think there was hope for Malaysians yet, I’m once again smacked off the hope-ladder with a swift low-blow to my prestigious nut-sack, and left for the wolves whilst the nut slowly enters a gangrenous phase which eventually smells like dog shit mixed with the smell of putrid flesh.
Right.

Once again, it is proven that superior advertising of an inferior product will get the idiotic masses to succumb and accept mediocre products at extraordinary prices. Think about it, seems like everyone is talking about it, including the village idiot and his aunt, but c’mon, what’s the big fuckin’ deal?
People here are willing to shell out close to Rm 3400-3700 for the iPhone, something that I cannot fathom. Perhaps the lack of knowledge on what they seem to be overpaying for might be the reason? As a matter of fact, the only reason I seem to get from anyone about wanting an iPhone is that it’s apparently cool?
Trust me, Unless If You're This Guy, not even the iPhone can make you cool
It appears the days that consumers make providers compete among each other with the latest and greatest of technology at awesome prices is over and it’s a complete take-over by idiots with money and no knowledge on how to utilize it and a huge placard hanging around their neck reading “Con Me, Im Rich”.
Anyways, for the rest of you who might be considering getting an iPhone, for reasons that you think it’s “cool”, read on:
1. Unless if you’re from one of the countries where the iPhone has already been released, you’re pretty much forced to get an imported _unlocked_ version. This gives dealers a reason to hike up the price for all the eager numbskulls waiting to be rid of a load of cash. However, these _unlocked_ phones may only work for a limited time as future firmware upgrades for the phone would imply you either attempt to unlock it yourself (at risk of bricking it [ouch, bricking an iPhone that doesn't have warranty]), or spend more money to get it professionally done.
As for the officially released ones, via network providers, that doesn’t sound very smart either. The rates are pretty much horrible and you’ll end up paying much more than merely buying an iPhone. The only advantage is that in this case, your ass is covered by the official warranty.
2) Worst idea of 3G ever? It’s a 3G phone that doesn’t have a front facing camera, for Video Calls over 3G, which seems to be one of the selling points of a 3G phone? No HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access). So you can’t connect it to your laptop to act like a 3G modem that allows you to surf the net at regions without wireless access. Where’s all the 3G hype?
3) Shitty ass Camera. You’re paying out of your ass for a shitty 2mp camera, with no autofocus, no alterable settings, and no flash, and here’s the kicker, no video recording.
4) No MMS’ allowed. No Sending Pictures in your messages. No bluetooth syncing, no transferring of documents via bluetooth, no A2DP. All In All it’s just a pretty expensive paper weight!
5) On-Screen Keyboard. Jesus H. Christ, unless if you’re a poor little african kid, suffering from starvation, with bony fingers, there is no possible way to utilize this tool. There is no alternative! There is no copy and paste! How can a so-called future phone lack all these basic functions?
6) The battery can not be removed. So if your battery dies, you can’t just go take a spare and use it. Instead, you have to send it in. The battery life is shit, so unless if you just want to use your phone for 10 minutes, (pfft a couple of hours), forget about playing music and expecting calls.
7) The GPS cannot be used in real-time. That is, your location will be superimposed on the map, however, you cannot have it give you directions and shit as any other GPS does (That annoying shit that goes, take left at the next corner).
No Fucking Flash. Websites are so media-rich and flash ladden these days that flash is an essential component. I realize they have a shitty utility that can be used to play you-tube videos, but what about those of us who would like to use redtube on the go?
9) Abilash wants it.
10) Ashwar doesn’t have it.
I think those are some pretty solid arguments to change any preconceived exaggerated notions one might have about how good the iPhone really is. However, if you would like to be a damned tool, and act like a fool, please, feel free to get yourself a shiny paper weight.
For shizzle,
HypoG
