Very funny comparison 
But it’s true, the iPhone is missing some important features. In a few weeks iPhone OS 3.0 will be released which will bring some “new” features. Hopefully the comparison will then get more green checkmarks.
Even worse comparison! 
Definitly too many features (joking).
Source of the pictures is unclear, both a spread widley over the Internet.
People often using Putty, xterm or any other Linux test based console will probably now this annoying issue:
For me it was quite annoying to have the prompt sometimes wider than the terminal window. In Debian standard configuration this is the case. So I decided to shorten the prompt.
I kept my prompt very simple, the only thing you have to do is to add the following lines to your ~/.bashrc
export PS1="[\u@\h \W]\\$ "
export PS2="> "
Make sure to add it at the end of your .bashrc file in your home directory. Otherwise it may be overwritten by other prompt definitions in your .bashrc.

What a surprise – after waiting a while and ignoring the Internet Explorer 7 – a new version was released. I really was not a friend of IE7 because it had the following problems for me:
Firefox and Safari made things usually in a nicer way for me. So I was really interested how the new Internet Explorer 8 will behave and installed it. During installation the first annoying issue: The user has to answer 11 questions. Sure I’ve selected user defined settings which will cause some more questions, but nevertheless the questions asked are annoying for regular users. And the questions are strange, things I’m really not interested in.
Scroll down to get over the screen shots of all the questions (screen shots are German). You will probably have the same feeling during scrolling like me during IE8 installation… “Where is the end?”
So far default setup stuff…
Scrolling… scrolling…
Soon it’s done…
Ok after selecting if you want to have search machine provider list updates and so on – Microsoft also want’s to push other search machines, all others than Google ha ha – finally my first impressions:
My opinion: Some strange “inventions” and it looks like that the IE8 is behaving better than IE7. I’ll keep using Firefox.
Maybe you have seen this iPhone 3G ad somewhere and you have been wondering why all operations are completed quite fast. It looks like a Turbo iPhone and I wish my one would have the same speed. But in reality the iPhone usability speed is slower and therefore the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) forced Apple to pull the television advert.
The PC Pro Magazine in the UK checked how long it really takes to do all the operations shown in the 30 seconds ad video from Apple. It was shown the operations need two minutes and 21 seconds in real live to complete. Compared to the 30 seconds in the ad quite a big difference. To see the difference have a look at the video from PC Pro Magazine which compares the 30 seconds ad video and the real behavior of the iPhone with WiFi connection:
Another application which you will definitely not need but probably like. Indeed totally senseless
