how about everyone agree to disagree, or even disagree altogether, and let me be right?

There's three, I think, maybe four. Or there could be dozens, for all I know. But of course, there is *It*. Could be one of the three or four, or maybe its another. If you happen to respond, but not to *It*, then you are missing the point.

I'll tell you what peevees me off about the iPhone -- it's an Apple. First those suckers stiff their most loyal customers by overcharging them by $200 when the phone first came out. Then, after you pay $600, you find that the phone does not really belong to you. If you mess with it in any way, they'll disable your as#.
Nice!

However they are in the business of selling phones and it would be irresponsible of them to ignore a product that clearly has mass consumer appeal. Aren't all those 17 year olds going to be young business people in a few years?
None of this is meant to suggest that RIM needs to mimic the iphone. I'm only stating what I think should be obvious and what I'm sure RIM is already doing; evaluating competing products and models to see if there are useful aspects that they can utilize to improve their own devices or to improve their sales/market share. Perhaps there is nothing useful at all in the iphone for RIM or their vision of future product offerings......but isn't it foolish of us to think that they are not doing their due diligence on it and other competing products/technologies?

Actually if you ask RIM they are not in the business of selling Cellphone they are a middleware company. At these that what I keep reading.

I practically pee in my pants every time I watch that. I'm a Mac user, but I'm no fan of the iPhone. I love this guy's energy! I can imaging him pounding furiously on his keyboard as he writes that stuff.

Yeah, baby! Nothing definite of course, but the highlights so far (all rampant speculation and guess work) are:
600 MHz processor.
US 3G - HSDPA!!
A Backup app that uses the memory card.
I'm just glad the guessing game is finally afoot. Release maybe/probably/possibly some time in 2008. All that's missing is some blurry spy pics from an "unconfirmed source deep within RIM".

I think as BlackBerry fans and as ordinary people who will have to use the internet for information-finding for decades to come, we need to ratchet up our critical thinking skills just a smidgen.
We're taking a visual pun, almost cartoonish in its construction, and treating it like the revealed word of God or at least a clever hoax. The image in the BGR post is the punchline, folks.
If we don't stop taking everything so literally, anything interesting or humorous on the internet will simply cease because we'll read it as fact and its creators will get sick of correcting all the mouthpieces who repeat it.

Preachy, condescending post aside, I agree with you...it looks like a photoshopped 8300. For what it's worth, BGR does go on to report that RIM is working on a touchscreen consumer device.
