What bugs you about iOS?
I'm not complaining about it because the device lets me replace the rom. Only takes a few mins and you have something way better than Viewsonic originally put out. Even if you don't want to replace the rom, you can install a new launcher and customize to your liking.

I'm not a fan of iOS for several reasons...

- Lack of customization. Even with a jailbroken iphone, there's only so much you can do
- Lack of widgets... has to do with the lack of customization. The interface really resembles that of an old colour Palm Pilot.
- iTunes.... Why did I have to install this just to activate the phone? Why is everything tied to it? Something that should be easy like custom ringtones can't be done without iTunes
-Multitasking doesn't work well and doesn't always work


Those are major issues I've had from using my iPhone 4 for 2 weeks. I got the thing for free through Fido and the original plan was to sell it for a top of the line Android but while I was trying to sell it, my Milestone crapped out so I decided to crack open the iPhone and use it. After 2 weeks, I was frustrated to the point that I switched back to my WinMo phone for the 3rd week til my Milestone was fixed. I just use the iPhone as a travel phone now.
