Steve Ballmer proclaims that the Internet was not designed for a device that wasn’t even a glimmer in Steve Jobs’ eye when the Internet came to be.
Let’s face it, the Internet was designed for the PC. The Internet is not designed for the iPhone. That’s why they’ve got 75,000 applications – they’re all trying to make the Internet look decent on the iPhone.
This just made me think that if you had 75 zillion apps you couldn’t make the internet look decent on Windows Mobile.

"That’s why they’ve got 75,000 applications – they’re all trying to make the Internet look decent on the iPhone." <– No, most of these 75,000 apps are adding additional and intuitive functionality to an already amazing device that will kick the ass of any WinMo phone, sorry Steve Ballmer.
And by the way, more and more of the Internet IS being designed specifically for the iPhone. Just look at how many websites have iPhone — NOT just mobile, but iPhone — specific web sites. And even non-iPhone specific sites look pretty damn good on an iPhone. Much better than even the best rendering of any website on every WinMo phone I've ever used, which has been a few (yes even a WinMo 6.5 version), so I know the comparison I'm making.
I think Steve Ballmer is just jealous that the California Steve designed a smartphone that everyone desires and loves. In fact, I bet Ballmer secretly loves the iPhone too, and that's why he's trying to bad talk it. He's torn between something he wants, and what his company makes. I bet he has an iPhone in his pocket right now. And he goes home to his iMac and Apple TV!
I don't really see anyone else here getting very worked up or frothing at the mouth about this until you. If you could tone the language down just a touch that'd be great.
Wow…all of us people here need to get a life? Please tell me WHY are u on an iPhone website leaving comments like that? I think you're lucky this site is ran by someone as nice as it is!
But anyways, Ballmer sounds just as dumb as that previous poster. Just attempting to discredit the thing that has been taking craps all over his companies work for the last several years! Lol He has to know that no one believes him!!
