There is a shop in Denmark that has made (or has had made) a cross over that can transfer and convert Android to iOS and vise versa. So you can buy what ever you want and have the content moved from the old phone to the new one... smart.

Sorry Ade, gonna have to disagree with you my friend. All Apple haters say the same things! Music, Videos, Operating system, Cost! Don't care! I Just want the thing to work when I switch it on and do what it's supposed to do. My Windows laptop is 3 years old and drives me absolutely nuts. It wasn't one of the cheap, nearly obsolete £300 quid ones that they like to fob of on people as a great deal either and now it's practically an antique. On the other hand, my iphone 4 and 1st generation ipad are both over 4 years old and have never given me any grief at all. Of course they update from time to time, but without any input from me. I shall be getting a Mac book next time that's for sure. Might even put one of those Apple stickers in the back window of my car....

As said earlier over priced out dated restrictive tat, sent from my 4th replacement iPhone, good job I don't pay the bill! Though my PC is 2 years old and can out perform any mac out there, at a fraction of the cost.Comment

4th!!! Crikey what you doing with them?
Thing is, I really don't care what version of windows you or anybody else uses or what android thingy you've got on your 'better' phone. Good for you if you like it. Apple suits millions of people so we use it. The thing with haters is they're so shouty about how terrible Apple products are and how ridiculously uninformed the millions of people who purchase them are, it all starts to come across a bit undignified.Comment

You missed out Panther and Tiger, I'd hate to meet a jellybean in the jungle. I'd like to see this amazing PC of yours that out performs an iMac which version of Windows does it run on 3.1 ,XP, 2000 Vista, 7, 8 or the new 10 with the start button re-introduced?Originally posted by \Comment

If your going to try and be predantic you missed out Millenium, I think you'll find my i7 Extreme is a tad faster than what your (i5) if your lucky?

I don't use android, and I don't shout, nor do I bleat on about how perfect something is when it clearly has as many downsides as any other device, with my work I see how many perfect phones come back each week and how many times people blindly choose them because their friends have them. Glad new figures published show that the fashion icon is no longer the worlds top selling phone, though to be fair I wouldn't touch the top one with a barge poleOriginally posted by \

See that's sort of my point Ade! Without knowing me you have assumed that I am a sheep. Incapable of making up my own mind about what suits my needs. An assumption based on your own extreme hatred of a chunk of plastic metal and glass and all that it represents.!!!
Don't suppose you've got your hands on the new 6+ yet? Any chance of an unbiased review?

I have friends who swear by Apple but I have always run Windows machines and resisted Apple simply because I am unsure about compatability with the software I use. I do hate MS Windows though. I have Win 7 in the office which is fine but my dad is lumbered with Win 8 a truly awful operating system.
I have also resisted iPhones and have been a Blackberry fan for many, many years. Until I got my Z10 that is, 18 months I have had it and really do not like the phone, a terrible product , so I am cancelling my contract early at a cost of £150 and, guess what, I have finally been drawn into an Apple product and now await the delivery if a iphone 6 plus.... they get you in the end.Comment

Good on you Barry a man with sense, Ade I've had iPhones from day one and have never been disappointed. I missed out millennium because it was a bit of a non event. I think you'll find that despite having an i7 processor, which your pc needs to try and keep up, it's still lagging behind. You have to remember that for every process that my iMac preforms yours requires 2. It's also worth noting that it's also down to the architecture of the os that is important.Comment

Well you all get it wrong. We're not the Apple 'haters', but haters of their practices. Their lies about their products. Their constant accusations of different companies that they steal from Apple (whole world takes those sues down all courts but Americans), their constant lies about how innovative they are (when they are at least a year behind the competitors), how many things they've engineered (where they actually took it from other devices). And what annoys me the most is that they treat their customers like a bunch of idiots (charging $200 for something that costs $75, like memory etc, telling that poor signal is the customers fault, that you'll never need a phone with a big screen, and then when they see people want it, they change their mind and lot lot more). Apple simply slows down the market by lowering people expectations.Comment

umm sounds like you are an 'Apple hater'. A year behind? don't you mean a year ahead.Comment

Hehe, come on Bart, if I cared about any of those things I'd be in an honorable profession, lawyer, politician something important you know. As it happens I'm just a very happy consumer. Just a quick question though, who developed the tablet a year before Apple???
Seriously though, where do you buy Apple products for $200? I pay loads more than that!Comment

@Vaughan: a year behind if not two. I can mention a lot of things but have no time for it just now so just a couple I have in mind. Big screen, notification bar, nfc, multitasking. All that was on the market before Apple discovered it..
@Wendall: glad you asked. 2002 :
- Microsoft releases the Microsoft Tablet PC, designed and built by HP.

Oh! Sorry Bart I stand corrected. Must've been a hell of a piece of kit! How much market share did it get in the 8 years it had before the iPad was released?
If I were Microsoft I would probably add that to my pile of epic fails along with Vista and Windows 8 and a couple of dodgy phones. Marketing a concept is after all as important as the concept itself. But well done to them for having the idea first.
