Just because Paul Thurrott posts a review of the iPhone that actually makes some legitimate complaints, TUAW has to go and bash him, claiming he “spins a genuinely innovative feature into a mark against a product.” The folks in the comments, however, rightly defend Paul, because all that he’s done is actually made an OBJECTIVE review of the iPhone.
By now, I think that it would be a well-known fact that even though the iPhone is revolutionary, it still has plenty of flaws. Paul Thurrott is completely correct in claiming that most people who review the iPhone deliberately overlook these flaws, and bravo to him for actually criticizing some of the weak aspects of the phone. Even then, as TUAW says in their own words, the review is mostly positive on Paul Thurrott’s part. It’s this kind of post by David Chartier that shows just how much of an Apple fanboy TUAW is and their inability to report from an objective point of view, and this really looks bad on them, as can be evidenced by the overwhelming number of comments to the post that are supporting Paul Thurrott.
Shame on you, TUAW. Shame on you.

[...] From the Idiots at TUAW, With Love Sorry guys, but you can’t go yelling at Thurrott for actually being objective and expect me to tolerate it. [...]
