A list of the usual ranting...

And some not so usual

1) No copy paste of contents (e.g. email/ SMS text) or files from one location to another (how can one NOT have this??)

2) No bluetooth transfer of anything i.e. mp3, images, videos
3) Can’t use iphone as wireless modem for your PC.. hence you can’t share your internet with your own PC..
4) No Java support (thereby a lot of existing apps won’t work)
5) The battery is locked inside the phone.. changing the same means getting to the apple store…
6) Can’t send MMS.. imagine this!!
7) No FM radio
8) Can’t use MP3 files as ringtones..
9) Can’t use ipod as external storage device to carry documents, pictures etc.
10) No flash or silverlight support
11) No office apps installed… i.e. u can’t read documents on iphone or quickly revise your presentation
12) If you are a coporate customer you don’t any security features like remote wipe if ur phone gets stolen or any corporate management server to manage mobile devices..
13) You can’t get any app on the phone if you don’t buy it off the apple store without jailbreaking the iphone (voids the warranty!!)
14) The camera is a simple 2 MP and can’t record video
15) There are no expansion slots available apart from built in memory..

+1...I could possibly argue with many of the points..Its clear that the person who wrote the article doesnt know much about Apple or the iPhone. But everyone knows it will lead to just another war (we have seen enough of those)

Well this thread will definitely help people not to spend money on I Phone. Some of the features mentioned above are very critical. I wont buy I Phone even if is down to 15K.
