OK. This sub-thread has gone long enough. Maybe CentOS team should add
"Off-Topic mailing list" so we can transfer our discussion there and
just leave a link here or something.
We ALL must agree to disagree. Those thinking the smartphones are the
future come from consumerist mentality responsible for current economic
crises (mentality, not people) They are constantly bombarded with "next
best thing" advertisement, and they make a lot more money then the rest
of the world. Other side comes from mentality which is oriented to "most
money for the buck" or "minimal spending" philosophy since resources are
scarce.
First mentality thinks that paying 300-500 EUR for a device that can not
be fixed cheaply or can be dead after just one drop from 1 meter is
justified. Other side, where I belong does not.
I almost cried when I payed 300 EUR for Andriod phone, just because of
Wireless (I am small WISP), ability to VNC into my home PC and do what
ever I need to do, and GPS software (I managed to cram IGO MyWay into
HTC Wildfire). And having ~700 contacts (not numbers) is nice.
Everything else I can do without.
So I do not think that further discussion will help, since differences
in the way we think are vast. For that reason, I ask you that we quit
this, or to take it elsewhere (I always like to )
