i mean that things like java are always oversimplifying programming, and there are a lot of people just cant understand things that are so simple because they are used with drag'n'drop interface, and they call themselves programmers...

The vast majority of Java programmers do server-side programming where there is no drag'n'drop interface so wtf are you talking about? Or are you one of those people who pretends to be a hardcore coder and bleats on about the manliness of C when you can't write anything beyond a basic Hello World program?

What You Get When You Buy a $40 iPhone In a Bar 211

Posted by timothy from the cheap-thrills dept.
Barence writes "How good — or bad — are fake iPhones? PC Pro blogger Steve Cassidy has a friend who paid £25 ($40) for an 'iPhone' in a bar, and he's got the photos and full lowdown of what's inside this not-so smartphone. The phone looks convincing enough from the outside, with a genuine-looking backplate, but things start to go wrong when you switch it on. What's a "Java" and "WLAN" App button doing on the screen? And how about that Internet Explorer icon? It's like you're handling an artefact from an alternate history, dropped in via a spacetime wormhole. It has dual SIM handling, too, and came with a bizarre auxiliary battery festooned with warnings about not pressing a button mounted on the front of the top-up device."
