Nonsense. There is a whole vast middle ground between "recommended" and "you should skip it".
Consumer Reports is about helping people make educated choices, not some remedial "yes/no" recommendation. They rate the iPhone 4 very highly but have a reservation about it. You have to strain pretty hard to read that as "skip it".
(I do agree with you about the questionable quality of their tech reviews, though. I do find them frustrating at times)
- ergo98 16y ago>Nonsense. There is a whole vast middle ground between "recommended" and "you should skip it". They wrap up by saying "Get a 3GS instead". Could they be any clearer? They are ABSOLUTELY saying skip it. Should anyone listen to them? Of course not. They're whoring for attention, and their credibility testing tech is dubious. They're also the ones who a few short days ago were telling us that the iPhone 4 has no reception problem. >Consumer Reports is about helping people make educated choices, not some remedial "yes/no" recommendation. Uh...no. CR "recommended" lists are the yes. Everything else is a no. You're really desperately trying to colour their statements that couldn't be clearer.
