I have the Nokia 6233 2mega camera phone and its Awesome! not great on videos but awesome on pics! I use that more than my camcaorder.

LOL @ numberings, LOL @ iPhone.

1. No no
2. No no no no
3. No no no no
3. No no
5. There's no limit

Even if it was any good, because it's made by Apple, everyone assumes it's just for idiots who like pretty things and know nothing about technology, so I wouldn't be seen dead with one. I expect it costs more than any other device too, but I haven't exactly checked.

As it is, I have a better camera, better MP3 player and a more convenient phone. Not all the same device, granted, but then I don't want all them all the the time. If I did, better options exist which don't have the negative image of owning an Apple device.

Pity the fools.

1: would you buy it?

2:What do you like about it?

3:what you dont like about it?

3: do you think its worth having at this time?

4: what other phones do you think is better than iphone atm?

just seem to be a talk about it in other places and well so far alot people wouldnt. Tho i find non computer people love it because umm shiny?

So i just want your view really

1. No
2. The new ipod visual interactive display stuff is quite nice
3. Price, it's made by apple and will therefore be a bit flakey, I HATE Itunes
3. Personally, no, it's an insanely expensive way to 'show off'
4. Anything that will make a phone call

At the moment there is no consolidated device capable of doing any individual 'task' as well as a stand alone device, my camera phone isn't as good as my camera, it plays MP3's but isn't as good as my ipod (Yes I know, I hate apple and itunes but I got it free so meh) my phone has games but isn't quite a PSP

Until something comes along that can actually do all these things I'll be carrying around a pocket full of different gadgets and swearing when I can't find the right power/usb lead.

1. No
2. Looks nice, is part iPod but with a bigger screen, touch screen.
3. Price, not 3G, limited storage.
4. Unless you have money to burn then, no.
5. I've read that my new toy is better functionally, the Nokia N95, but it obviously doesn't have the looks of the iPhone.

One major advantage the iPhone is likely to have over other mobiles is that it's part iPod, which I consider to be the best portable music player around. It's certainly better than my N95.

One major flaw is the lack of 3G, which is probably due to wanting to save battery life. But if you're trying to transfer data over 2G all the time this is going to be painful. If you're forever in a wifi hotspot then not a problem.

Lastly every mobile device should have touch screen, in fact all displays should. Has Nintendo taught us nothing!

If I could use it on Pay As You Talk, then I might have considered it, but I have recently purchased a Samsung D900 and it does everything I need it to do, so I doubt if I will change my phone for another 5 years or so like the last one
