networkworld.com— It's not often that you hear a CEO praise a competing product, but late this week, Sprint CEO Dan Hesse sat down with Charlie Rose and had some flattering things to say about the iPhone.

not sure why you are getting dugg down. its true. i dont like basketball, actually i dont know anyone who like to watch basketball (football on the other hand). BUT back in the day when jordan was on the bulls, with pippin and rodman....that was some good stuff. its like i've seen the best that could possibly be, nothing else will ever compare.
Isn't Michael Jordan pretty much a has-been now? I remember Michael Jordan mania when I was younger, but now I never see or hear anything about him. Maybe the comment was meant to convey the sense that the iPhone was a legendary smart phone that everyone went nuts over and now the fad has ended. Also I dare say the Pre is better than the iPhone.
What's really ironic is that the only phone that comes close to besting the iPhone is a phone that was built by ex-Apple engineers. FTA :" .. Add in the fact that a few of Palm's executives and many of its engineers are former Apple employees, and we have a good old fashioned Silicon Valley shootout on our hands."

Every time I see Dan Hesse, I keep thinking Kevin Spacey is doing Sprint commercials.

You mean the iPhone is ungrateful and vindictive?

Was a super star in it's younger days, but as other phones come out, it became fat and ugly?

I was going with a powerful phone and a ton of fun, but as ugly as a brick.
