The iPhone sells so well because it's a good product that customers enjoy using. End of story. A few morons on a late night talk show doesn't change that fact.

You sound like one of the I-sheep.

you are american, you must be stupid, A tv show told me so!

Sure it started as a good product, but as someone who has owened 4 iphones i'll tell you it's gone down hill, and i'll be moving on with my next upgrade. If i dont drop at&t all together. Android is moving in the direction i want, and iphone is just doing the same old same old.

You may not like the operating system but it has hardly gone "downhill". It has improved incrementally. One may argue that it hasn't improved quickly enough but it certainly hasn't gotten worse over time (I owned the first two iPhones and have also purchased two iPads).

It's a great OS but it might not be the right OS for you. There's a big difference between preference and fact. Android has its own fair share of problems, just like iOS.

The iPhone 5 has 1GB of RAM:

It is also using Apple-engineered custom ARM architecture:

Interesting news. Still no word on clock speed or number of cores, though.

Superlilke.. What else you can expect from Apple?

I'll never understand people's obsession with smartphones or tablets.Or Apple as a whole, for that matter.
