If you have a consumer account its worth a laugh, they compare the iPhone4 with the Motorola Milestone, sigh.

Far out that's crap, hahaha, I would've let them borrow my Galaxy S for a few hours, typical consumer though, they've lost the plot in the last few years!

And with online reviewers/gadget websites, we probably don't need them for technology reviews anymore. Vacuum cleaners and washing machine reviews are what they should be sticking to!

At least they didn't photoshop a HTC Magic screen on to a Blackberry for their article like Tone magazine did! No excuse because they had a perfectly good picture of a Nexus One in the same magazine....

Consumer is just too generalist to be useful, niche expert review sites are just far and away better now.

A few years ago we let Consumer go, it was just too out of wack with reality to take seriously, unfortunately thats not how the rest of the senior public understand thing.

Consumer used to be good. This just lost a lot more of my respect.
