Am I the only person that keeps getting the comment:
"Oh, is that the new iPhone" when I show off my phone? It's really starting to annoy me! |

Just tell them it's the new iPhone Nano, designed to fit in a shirt pocket, rather then needing cargo pants like the original iPhone. They'll then go rushing off to O2 or the Apple Store asking for one! -------------------- NeilM: Site Moderator and Reviewer on 4WinMobile

I'm guessing when you tell them "no, it's made by HTC" they say "Who? Never heard of them. Are they like Nokia or Motorola?"
