]]> And so we have the third bug-fix update since the big 2.0. Minor changes to the iPod app and a relatively faster SMS experience. It’s been a year since I had a real chat application on my phone and my patience is running wafer-thin. At this point, the Nokia E71 is looking like an increasingly attractive alternative—it has every feature I’d want and can do everything the iPhone can’t. I’d lose the super-fluid and intuitive interface, but I grew up with DOS, so…

In brief: I wouldn’t recommend an iPhone to anyone, anymore. It’s not worth the compromises, or the official price. It still makes some sense for me, since I mostly live on the Web and appreciate the touch interface. But 15 months and still no background data? Come. Fucking. On!

Update: Looks like a lot of you are having trouble with the lack of caller ID on the iPhone in India. If you’re jailbroken, try this link. It’s what I used. There’s also an Installer.app package that does the same thing, but I haven’t tested it.
