I was talking about a 3rd party objective rating such as Consumer Report.

but from your example, that's an opinion at that point. I have both phones (the EVO and the iPhone 4, AND the HTC HD2), I still prefer the iPhone 4 over the EVO.
for me, from both the developer and user's perspective, the iPhone is better, but i LOVE EVO's Wifi access point - AWESOME.

BTW.. leBron James is BY NO MEANS the best basketball player in the world. HE GAVE UP WHILE PLAYING HIS LAST GAMES IN THE LAST SEASON!!! GAVE UP!!! Both Objectively and Subjectively. I'd say more people hate him than like him.

Dude, Consumer Reports just pull their recommendation for iPhone 4 today, that's why Apple went on a rampage. Did you not read the link posted by Michael?

And FYI, they tested it in a controlled environment, with radio signal that was simulated by hardware emulator to carry out the test. I hate to say this, but some of you really need to get off Steve's Knob.

Yes it's beta, blah blah blah. And it does not fix crap besides telling you that you have now shittier reception. Less bars; in more places!

Damn, I feel like I need James to admit that he was wrong
