Many people are crazy about the iPhone. We don’t know for sure if it is because of the excellent interface, stylish design, or maybe Steve Jobs simply does have a hypnotic way of attracting buyers. But whatever the reason is, one thing is for sure. It effectively markets the 3G iPhone and even the other gadgets created by Apple Inc. as well.

However, you really cannot please everybody. Some loves the touch-screen feature of the iPhone while others do not. According to the report seen on LA Times, women who have long fingernails are one of the haters of the iPhone’s touch-screen feature. Of course you will be puzzled as to why




they hate the feature that is being imitated by iPhone wanna-be’s. The touch-screen feature of the iPhone will only respond from the electrical charges that would come from a bare fingertip. Women who have long nails will surely have a hard time doing so.

The woman who was interviewed by LA Times mentioned that the Apple Inc. was actually being misogynistic. The designers of the device did not even think of a style meant for women and did not even consider the fingers and the nails of female consumers. However, nobody thinks that Apple Inc. will address this “design flaw” since it has been the problem for touch-screen monitors and even in keyboards.
