I was in the market for a new fone aswell. Looked at the iphone too, and wasnt impressed. Meant to be the latest thing, and only came with a 2mp camera and didnt have video.. Which what I would consider basic features on any other phone, plus every man and his dog would have one when I comes out (if supply could meet demand) Arent they also like $400 -$500 in the USA and given the exchange rate why is it going for $700+ outright?? I know some other factors come into it but really... I ended up going for Sony Erricssons 'answer' for the iphone, the W960i. It has a 8gig memory, 3.2mp camera with video, is also touch screen but also has buttons. Comes with a stylus to make it easier to navigate, and also allows you to write a message not just punch in letters Also looks hotter, and exclusive which I like too.. My old fone only one other person that I saw had it...
