One iPhone thing that drives me nuts, and maybe I just don't know where the setting is... my iCal alarms audibly go off one time. Not a peep from them ever again. My old PalmTT allowed me to set an alarm to repeat every x minutes for y iterations. Where I work is noisy at times, so it is nice to have an alarm that repeats. Like I said, maybe I'm just missing some hidden setting. Perhaps is I "shake" it something "magical" will happen? :)

No, but you could start by correctly setting multiple alarms in iCal ...

The point is you can't do that in the iPhone whereas you can on other phones, so your mildly snide comment was misplaced. You also cannot customize repeating calendar events in the iPhone OS like you can in iCal, meaning you have to edit them later on your Mac after a sync.

Now I love my iPhone, and my Mac for that matter, but we're getting an incling that the development and feature teams may not be fully in sync. If you want to see where this might lead in 5 or 6 years time, looking at WinMob 6.5 for a worst case scenario.

Of course I am just making a prediction. I know the iphone is still selling like crazy. But i have also in the last 4 months tried 2 blackberrys, both verizon droids, and the iphone. As far as hardware and User settings and options, the iphone is in last place. All i'm saying is apple needs to built something better because they are not the only phone on the block anymore. And filing a lawsuit against HTC and another android phone is not the answer. I honestly feel that if the iphone came to verizon tomorrow, it would be a flop. They need to build a phone that will be way a head again.

Obviously this is just my opinion, but so is every other post in this thread. No need to start a fight. Just having a discussion! Ease up!
