One Thing is Clear...

The iPhone is the overwhelming choice of gunbloggers.

Heck, it's the choice for non-gunbloggers too - out of the six people at Saturday's sendoff for Lissa, there were [counts picture] oh yeah, six iPhones. That's 100% correlation, folks. The other interesting thing that I noted was that of the three Massachusetts-based gunbloggers at the meet, one is leaving MA and another is in the process of taking steps to leave MA. Of the three non-bloggers at the meet, one is part of the team leaving and the other two are considering NH. That's also 100% correlation, as I'd leave in a heartbeat if the Mrs. were amenable.

MA: You're more likely to want to get the hell out of here.

That is all.

most of them like 1911s too. So i don't put too much faith in their choice of functionality :)

I avoid buying things made in socialist countries, so no iphone for me.

You know, I didn't really understand what all the fuss was about....

Now, I LOVE my Iphone. Don't know what I'd do without a smartphone.

If there is a 100% correlation with people in MA and people who own iPhones, it gives me one more reason to avoid Apple...

I am so humbled. I don't have an iphone. I do have this little phone. It was cheap. People ask me what it does. I say "it rings".

But I have holographic sights out the wazoo for my AR's. What's up with that?

I don't even want all the crap tha the phone I have does ( or could do, if I botheredto learn to use those other functions): I want to be able to dial numbers (from MY memory, not the phone's). I want a camera in it, and I want to be able turn the ringer off. Make calls, recieve calls, take a pic, or shut the hell up. That is all I want. Oh yeah and I would like the phone not to explode into several pieces if I drop it, unlike the POS I have now. Also, unlike the POS I have now, I would like it to refrain from talking to me at random moments from my pocket.... "Say a command." "Shutthehellup. There's yer command. Do that."

Android phones, and only Android phones. Iphones are for people who don't believe in customization *g*.

I DO need more holographic sites, though.

Been there, done that, in the most literal way. Viva Colorado!

I phone for me is ECE electronic communications equipment. Customization is largely unimportant as it's use is to communicate my any of the available ways, does that fair save for I'm in a no cell hole but it does wifi well then.
I'd call it a tool and it has to work more than anything else.

Then again I also carry a netbook in the bag along with other tools.
