Keep on thinking I am a child.

Well, you're making it pretty self-evident. Just look at the rest of your post:

I will keep on thinking you are the loser who lives alone with absolutely no friends. You are bitter at the world and bitter at anyone who is even slightly social. You are mad at people who went to your college because they are better off than you. You sit alone in bars on weekends and drink because you have no friends.

Lets see whose guess is more accurate.

Yeah, like I am going to listen to the guy who comes into every apple thread basically just to stir the pot and piss people off without providing anything relevant. You're a troll, plain and simple.

Is that what is supposed to be considered mature? If so, then consider me a child.

Edit: I base that assumption purely on shortylickens posts. Its not me saying these things, its him. I am just interpreting it for everyone else to see.

You've posted this before and it is seriously the most laughable thing I have ever read as a want or need for a pocketable device. The day I have to do PS or AC work on a four inch screen is the day I point a shotgun at my nads and pull the trigger, as that would be more fun.


No I wouldn't want to do PS or AutoCAD on a 4 inch phone either. But, a 5 inch phone with high resolution makes it possible. I can not imagine trying to create any significant AutoCAD drawing on a phone of any size but being able to view drawings and pull dimensions IS something I'd like to do.

Now PS is more doable on a phone so long as the screen is large enough and of high resolution. The problem with PS is that it is VERY much a memory hog and it will be a couple more generations before 2GB is a common option.

The biggest issue with either a phone or a tablet is the lack of a true mouse. Doing any major work with AutoCAD is going to really demand a better input device than a touch screen interface.

But, getting back to the original reason I posted, the fact is the industry is moving to larger phones and the customers are buying them. Apple will likely upgrade to a larger display and is capable of going to 4 inch or larger without increasing the package size. There is just some things that are better on a larger display and as more people do more of there internet and PC activities on a phone that will continue to push towards larger phones.

But, once again, you can continue to use a smaller phone -- who am I to tell you what sized phone you should use. Just know that the higher functionality will be limited to the larger high resolution phones. One thing that will offset this is a phones hotspot feature which can permit even a small phone to do much more if you use it to drive a laptop or tablet. But, if a large phone is an inconvenience then lugging a laptop or tablet isn't going to be any easier...

Steve Job says that 4 inches screen for iPhone is stupid! 3.5 just fine for now.

You said my criticisms are "trivial". I said in reply "I don't care".



I'm not the one who should do that.. you should get over others, as you continue to reply to them.

What point are you even trying to make? Its pretty evident that you are arguing just for the sake of arguing.

What is your purpose in this thread?
