    Sometimes I want to kiss my 7811FX. It's already given me so many fun hours of gaming since I got it 2 months ago. Mmm PC gaming.

    I love my 6860, besides my iPhone, its been the best purchase I've made and once it gets older I'll probably replace it with the latest FX ;)

    iPhones are incredible bits of kit. Anyone that doesn't agree hasn't used one ;)

    No Multimedia Messages, Video Recorder, Camera zoom = worthless for a phone engineered for modern living in 2008.

    I've bought and sold 3 (sold an 8 gig 2g yesterday) and I've never been happy to get rid of technology. I usually feel sad because I've gotten used to the device, but not the iphone!

    it's so much easier to use the internet on the iphone than anyother phone. apple is standing behind it 100% and so are the thousands of people creating apps for it. the multimedia msging kinda sucks but that's only b/c there are some losers out there who still don't have one or can't check email on there phone... :p flame away my friends! your words cannot hurt me!!! :)

    something can be said about these type of complaints.. the truth is, the iphone is exactly that. A phone. Does it make phone calls? Check. Does it receive phone calls? Check. Does it also do other tasks that a normal phone does not? Check. Ok..so, it's a phone with perks. But, at the end of the day if you're looking for all the extras then maybe you shouldn't be looking for them all in one device. And heck, when the 3rd Gen iPhone comes out, I'm sure they'll throw in one or two little things we have all begged for from the beginning. There's always gotta be room for improvement! Very sound business decision on Apple's part. They suckered me into the 2nd Gen 3G, after my 1st gen, and I'll get 3rd gen too. I love my iPhone. And it loves me. And sometimes, I hate that I love it because corporate propaganda will prevail and cost me another $300-400 in 6 or so months. :)

    I never tried the iphone got a windows mobile 6 Shadow for 80 bucks, and found a forum with the a Shadow community and with all the tips and tricks along with free downloadable programs the tmobile Shadow, which I think would be free by now can do anything the iphone can, it also can play flash videos on websites. So windows mobile all the way.
