You may have dug up some rent-an-Apple-fanboys from somewhere that told you the iPhone didn't need 3G, but I am an avid Apple fan, I thought it was ridiculous not to include it, and didn't buy one until it did.
The iPhone doesn't need MMS. Just send me a bloody email. What century are you living in?! They only added it to shut people like you up.
I think it's likely, based on your lack of critical thinking. So, am I right? (Remember, denying your faith is not cool in the eyes of God.)
Second how was he on topic, he said "explain science behind "miracles"" Then basically said state that biblical miracles are impossible
Do you have any direct experience of any such miracles? Or are you relying on hearsay in your evaluation?
Science Teachers need to focus on subjects that are actually provable (evolution, gravity,...) , you can't prove/disprove something that can't be tested/observed.
We can test whether it's possible for water to be turned into wine. It can't. If you have evidence to the contrary, I'd love to see it (it would turn science on its head).
I'm not saying anything about you. The "you" in this context is Apple. I'm saying the reason that Apple had music to sell in the first place is because they DRMed it.
The problems both the music & app store had, originally, were due to DRM restrictions the phone had in place. Once they removed the DRM from the music store, the issues went away, despite your original assertation that it was a content provider option.
You really don't get it, do you?
You don't just "remove the DRM" when the DRM is the reason you've got something to remove it from in the first place.
Double-clicking the home button brings up the iPod transport controls. They're always in the same place onscreen, so I can easily FF, rew or pause without looking at the screen.
(Or I can just click, double-click or triple-click my earbud mic.)
And yet, OS X on the desktop supports a bluetooth keyboard. The iPhone supposedly has a stripped-down OS X. Therefore, they must have stripped out USB HID support.
Eh? What makes you think that they use the same Bluetooth stack on your Mac and on your iPhone?
I'm having trouble keeping up with your point. Is the problem that you live in a big country, or is the problem that your telecom companies aren't good enough?

I have no proof for or against these miracles
And therefore you consider the evidence for and against the miracles to have equal weight? Like I said: lack of critical thinking.
Your problems began when you bought DRM-infested music. Nobody around here is going to shed a tear for you.
Your problems continued when you threw good money after bad (where good and bad are defined by limitations you knew about up front).
I'm playing the world's smallest violin for you.

First how do you know I'm a Christian
I think it's likely, based on your lack of critical thinking. So, am I right? (Remember, denying your faith is not cool in the eyes of God.)

Yeah, well, America's founding purpose was to be the land of the free. Founding purposes come and go...
Maybe they're trying to shore it up because once it's in place, the RIAA will get slammed for extortion?

Sybert42's comment was entirely on-topic, whereas yours was not.
We get it you're bitter that you can't square your faith with your reason. Shut up already.
So far the only site you demonstrably use is Slashdot, and this doesn't require Flash.
What do you remove the DRM from? Music.
Why do you have music in the first place? Because of the DRM.
Make more sense now?
So who is the "they" in your "they removed DRM from the music"?
Perchance it's different bluetooth hardware?
MP3/AAC decoding is done in hardware on the iPhone and iPod, in order to offer a half decent battery life.
The TRSS headset connector is recessed on the original (not 3G), requiring purchase of either an adapter or an apple-branded headset
I've had headphones from Sony with those mini jacks, and I'm willing to bet they and Apple are not the only ones that use them.
Battery cannot be replaced by the user (arguably another case of hardware-based DRM as this is a standard industry feature on most other phones)
Ah, yes, the standard industry battery. I just love that I can take any battery from any Nokia phone and use it in any Motorola phone.
Over 200 patents filed regarding the iPhone hardware -- many of which are bogus -- and massive legal campaigns to prevent any direct competition
Did you give any consideration to finding out what "DRM" means before chiming in?
The point he's making is that someone disagreeing with an Apple hater is not necessarily an Apple fanboy. Obviously.
You think they just removed the DRM from the music, and suddenly everyone in the RIAA said "oh yeah, that does actually make everything better"?

Why would you want to run a shitty OS on superior hardware? Methinks the lady doth protest too much.

You might want to look up the word "race" sometime.
Sure, if we were on an island
You are on an island. We have several countries on ours too :)
