I'm not attacking anyone personally. I think what you say is ridiculous.

Well, we must have grown up around different technologies. If something doesn't specifically say it CAN do something, I don't expect it to until I see it happen. The iPhone doesn't SAY that it can't be synced to multiple computers, so I don't expect it to.

It seems like you took the phrase "best iPod ever" and decided for yourself what that meant. I would guess any people say it as a phrase designed to sell more iPods.

Every company I've worked for allows this, but I don't sync my personal iPhone to my work computer, it's synced to my personal laptop. And yes, your digital media company sounds VERY cool. I'm sure you're very lucky to work there.

I use my iPods and iPhone for these same things. For my iPod I used the iTalk to record interviews and meetings, for my iPhone I just bought a $2 app called SpeakEasy to record audio. Works great.
I listen to company audiobooks as well (not technically books from my company, but books my managers have recommended for our team).

I have no problem with what you're doing and never said that I did. None of my comments were nasty or hateful. If you thought that they were, maybe you're insecure about what you said and are a little defensive. You should work on that.

I'm happy that you were able to afford both. My comment wasn't specifically directed at you, but in general I would say that subsidizing the 3G iPhone brought a lot more problem customers than the original did.

Thanks for the feedback. Glad you checked out my site.
