I can see it now "Hey, you know how to use a cell phone right? Have you ever used a 'Palm Pilot'? Good take a look at this and write a review." Same type of things happened when the i730 first came out, many 'bad' reviews (not bad for the product, but just poor reviewers), and many sounded like they never used a PDA phone. Mark thanks for the props...

I found it hilarious that they rated the i730 as one of their top Pocket PC phones overall others, at 8.3, yet Bonnie Cha rated the i830 for Sprint quite low, 6 or lower if I remember correctly, because its big or bulky alone..she didnt mention almost anything it had..it was one of the worst reviews I had seen on Cnet. Her Mac Pro review was amazingly less informative than that. "Uhm it has a cool look to it...um..like what"?? While I overall like listening to their input (mostly people who have been there longer..that dood..james kim is it?) I agree that they have quite a few people, especially the newer ones, reviewing stuff that dont know about it and dont give as helpful info as they could. They also don't seem to know the difference between a smartphone and Pocket PC vs Pocket PC Phone Edition, but oh well. It lead me to the i730, and hopefull at some point the Archo AV 500 or 700..and for that Im grateful. I agree as well that you should have done the review though. |
