what i hate dislike about the iphone

Monday, April 19th, 2010

So I’ve had an iPhone for nearly two years now. I still have the 3G model. It didn’t seem reasonable to upgrade to the 3GS but I can see the speed bump would have been handy. Anyway, with the announcement of iPhone OS 4 and the up-coming announcement of the iPhone HD (or whatever they’re going to call it) I was thinking about what I dislike about the iPhone/iPhone OS.

  • Requires iTunes to sync stuff to phone
  • Alert notifications are poor (visual/sound)
  • Cannot use custom alert sounds
  • Cannot change alert sound for email/calendar
  • Cannot use device for storage like a USB drive (yes I know there are apps for this kind of thing but they have certain requirements)

This started out like a good idea, but that’s all I can come up with so far. iPhone OS 4 does not look like it’ll be addressing any of these.

Does anyone have anything to add?

Update: I like the way this guy thinks.

Wellington is severely lacking.
