iPhone Vs myPhone




Cost:
iPhone costs $499 or $599 after you've signed a 2 year contract with Cingular.

myPhone costs $18 and no contract with Cingular. In fact when you buy this pay-as-you-go Phone, you get $10 worth of talk time free. In effect myPhone costs $8.

Features:
iPhone: is a phone, a camera, a music player and an internet browser.

myPhone: is barely even a phone. Some days it wakes me up doubling as an alarm. It triples as a girl repellant. Ideal function for married men.

If I lost it:
iPhone: I'd turn suicidal, because it is almost as valuable as my life. The person who finds it will almost certainly not return it back.

myPhone: I just fast for one meal and buy me a new one for free. If someone finds it, they are certain to return it... or throw it into a dumpster.

If you are seen using one:
iPhone: People think you are a cool, rich person with good taste. Maybe even a spendthrift who will turn suicidal when he loses his phone.

myPhone: People run away from you, and then you can call them to ask why?

Marketing:
Apple spends millions of dollars to produce snazzy ads for the iPhone.

Motorola spends millions of dollars, so that people won't find out that they made myPhone.

Steve Jobs advertizes the iPhone = iJobs

I advertize myPhone = iJobless
