Picture Debbie Lou, instead of (I won't name any WebOS-critics by name), and "Some Jerk Of a Boyfriend" (SJOB) instead of HP/Palm. Close your eyes and listen:
OK, I meant that figuratively. Obviously, if you close your eyes, you won't understand...
I'm so mad at SJOb; lied to me, made promises not kept, led me on to believe I was going to get something I wouldn't, teased me just enough to keep me around. That's it, I'm done forever and making sure that all of SJoB's friends know how I've been wronged. If they don't listen to me, I swear, I'll stomp my feet and scream ever louder.
Hey, look - there's SJOB walking in with a new look. I don't care, and no, I am not blushing with desire, I'm going to keep on telling all my friends to avoid SJOB forever. C'mon, I'm late for gym,
Can you please stop using this analogy? I'll be the first one to say that some of the more vocal opponents to HP and Palm with this whole issue are ridiculous and somewhat annoying, but let us not forget that it was HP and Palm that <<mess>>ed this whole thing up to begin with, not the "Jr high breakup" people. If you don't want to read or listen to their so called whining, then don't, but don't paint them somehow being lesser or more annoying than HP and Palm. They have good reasons to be displeased with HP and Palm, and these "Jr high breakup" posts reek of you coming to the defense of HP and Palm when they don't need it.
This whole situation will go down as just another company in a long line of companies over promising and under delivering, another case of Palm once again letting its mouth write checks that its *** couldn't cash. Partly because of this, I will not be getting an HP phone when my current contract with Sprint is up on June 10th. I also think based on Palm's track record, HP is going to do very little, if anything, to "make things right" for people. So I'm feeling the same irritation and frustration towards HP and Palm that the "Jr high breakup" crowd is, even though I'm not as vocal about it. Because I'm stuck in the same boat they are, I'm not going to put them down for acting a little irrational and you shouldn't either. It's HP and Palm that <<mess>>ed up, not them.
