Wireds article basically mentions the obvious. I also added in what i would also add. And i would add these before most of Wireds gripes. I mean.. desktop software..who cares. Gimme speed over that anyday!
Wireds top 5, with my commentary
1. Browser (Duh) RIM Let us use what we want to.
2. Touchscreen - As i said before, the touch screen is done right by iphone, surpass it or dont bother with it, but half assed is bad. A screen that presses down when you press it is not acceptable. Take an Iphone, back engineer it, and LEARN how to do it right.
3. App Store. Yup, said this too, for some reason, it works for Apple. I would include a lot of cool programs on your phone for free, license them from the creators or something, anything... But im not buying programs for such a small screen. Particularly as i use my blackberry as a Communication device, and nothing else.
4. WiFi HA! Indeed. I bet its because RIM have a non Wifi compete with carriers own Networks clause or something stupid like that. Watch as those that DO ALLOW wifi surpass you. The WiFi genie is out of the bottle. Get on board, or get off. Appeasing Networks is a doomed venture.
5. Desktop software Well, it does its job, not really worried too much about it. I dont use my blackberry for entertainment. Only a fool would.
What i would add to all that:
6. Battery - Slow to charge, quick to discharge. Have to buy a second battery. And you RIM dont get the money because its from another supplier. Maybe you should be nice and give a free second battery?? Or just invest wisely, and make a better Battery. Or reduce the wear and tear of it, from programs that want to update themselves needlessly.
7. Internal Memory - Internal memory for running programs. PLEASE make bigger. The Little spinning egg timer really really makes me want to try out other phones. (who have better battery life, wifi etc. Once you loose me, Youll need something ULTRA special to get me back, and those events dont happen too often) Apple offers Gigs, Vs. Blackberrys Mbs... Other than screen size, its the only thing Apple has you on.
8. RAM/CPU - For the love of Science. Give it some Muscle. Re-Engineer, learn from others, do something. Egg timer yet again...
