iPhone? Nah, aesthetics-/hype-wise they are sweet, but the functionality doesn't rival any phone currently on the market. They can't for example send/receive MMS, doesn't support UMTS/HSDPA (3G, so high-speed Internet and video calls aren't possible), and *currently* third-party application support is limited to web-based applications (an SDK is due to be released next year but there will never be support for J2ME).

I like to think of the iPhone as a hot chick with no personality. :P

Nokia N80 seems good. If you can afford an extra $230, you can get a Nokia N95 through http://insanemobile.com - mine arrives Thursday, can't wait!

n80 is soo bad. it is too thick; they are rolling them out since there is the WICKED-looking new n81; WAY better than the n95 excpet for the camera. Plus, it's got hard drive storage

too thick? its like 2cm thick...anything under that is a pain in the ass to hold if you have average-large hands


aaaanyway...i got jibbed. the phone is the chinese one and has this problem where it scrolls down constantly without being touched. im going for a refund and gunna buy it elsewhere.
