3G? GPS? Ability to install 3rd party applications? WOW!

This is nearly as good as the Windows Mobile phone I had 18 months ago!

I got the WM phone free on contract, so also not big news :p

To be fair to the iPhone, it is made for humans. I could go on all day about how my N95, released nearly a year ago, makes the iPhone look like two tin cans tied together with a piece of string. However, the iPhone has a couple of big advantages:

- It is completely and utterly beautiful

- The average user can work it - giving them access to more functions than they could use on the N95!

Im the only person in the modern age that doesn't have a cellphone. It might be nice for emergences - but otherwise, no one has ever complained about me not getting back to them promptly.

The one thing that your phone doesnt have is a group of rabid developers working on things to make it better - we should take a look in another year, and then compare
