the facts are.. iphone is intuitive and user friendly. they have a strong backing from the software dev. community. but it is still an inferior phone compared to the standard smartphones...whether it be, winmo, symbian, webos, or android.
after using all the different types of phones, i will use the symbian, simply because its a globally support phone (developers, users, and function). tired of all these carriers can phone manufacturers crippling their products just to make more money.

Have had my 1G phone for a couple of years now and am not compelled to upgrade-not enough in the new phone to warrent a change. I am due for a battery swap-yes, this is replacable, albeit not for the feint of heart. Been my favorite phone by far in it's functionality (and I am no apple fanboy). I think the best phone out there for the media/casual user. As for the keyboard...bacon blows. I carry my BB Bold for work and have the iPhone exclusively for personal use.

After using all types of phones out there, I have to say I need to have both an iPhone and a Blackberry. Cannot do without either one of them as they both have something to offer that the other one does not. Isn't this the case with everything else out there? You can never find everything you want in one item and have to settle for one. Phones, Gaming Systems, even Women Lol. But seriously, the 3g was my first iPhone and I will surely upgrade to the new one. I also have a Blackberry, and I will never replace it with the iPhone so for now I must carry two phones with two carriers, AT&T and Verizon.

the iphone is a good device. the people that whine about copy/paste can stfu now. i personally have never needed to copy/paste over the past year that i have owned my 3g iphone.
i do wish my 3g iphone was faster and had more battery life. so it's a tough decision for me whether or not to upgrade to get the 2 things i wish my current iphone did better. i wished there was a little more to this upgrade, but they did actually address the 2 major complaints i have about the iphone. but these 2 complaints are direct results of having such a great platform. 1. i really know my way around the phone so i wish it would get to where i was going faster. and 2. i use it all the time which is why my battery isn't as great as it was a year ago.
