There's a big hype about the iPhone and what the iPhone has done for the market and the future of phones is great. BUT as a phone and just as a phone it's poor. the spces are poor. it's the software that delivers. You can't send multimedia text messages, no videos calls, extremely poor quality camera and no means of making a video, which is standard on todays phones. I was waiting for the iPhone, being a Mac user, but the specs were disappointing. I can't do the basics of a standard phone, but it distracts you with the software and things you would rarely use. as a piece of hardware it's substandard. If Apple work on phone side and build on what they have, they will truely have a winner (Keeping in mind what other hardware are available on the market; HTC, Sony Ericsson, Nokia (N-Series), Toshiba, Samsung and LG, all pushing out great spec phones (but lagging in OS in comparison the iPhone)). MS are just a step behind, but if they get the OS right and put it on the right spec phone, the iPhone will fall hard and I think that's not far behind. Lets hope Apple take the right steps.

    nick, 25 Feb 2009hmm, but at the end of the day, still no fm radio really... how can i tune into BBC london ... moreGet one of the Internet radio streaming applications and tune in BBC or buy some headphone's with an FM radio.

    It's quite obvious what an iPhone does and doesn't do it's written here thousands of times, if the things it doesn't do are important to you then buy something else, don't whine about it after the fact.

          same thing here, if nokia adds DVB-H in N97, no one wants to buy N96 right?, if they choose N97 for the 8MP Carl Zeiss wide angle len model, they will put shame on their other 5MP phone right?

            Well, I have been wondering why Apple does not give what their customers want to have in the firmware update? their customer have been complaining for 2 years, but it still is not going to happen!

            Why iphone users can't have MMS, Cut & paste, background running, bluetooth and many more.
            is it because if apple add all features in iphone, no pne wants to buy mac or macbook right?

                There are new apps coming out daily as the device is fully programmable, but it takes brains and some basic expertise to do it of course !

                  worst motherf****ng phone ever i had it and its ruined i dont know i was browsing my music when all of a sudden i got a picture of a yellow triangle wth a sad smiley on front
                  wtf??
                  mac nerds help??

                  im sick of this phone no bluetooth a2dp, no sms forwarding so i have to retype my entire message that needs to be forwarded for proof to my client?
                  what is apple making we need these essential features to live through daily lives
                  so what?
                  we should be able to have freedom to do what we want on our phones not even worth its retail price nor contract sales
                  if this phone $0 on a 24 month heck id buy it
                  if the phone $200 or higher why not?
                  i love apple and their products but they need to get with the program the 08/09 program
                  not worth it i traded mine for a motorola v9 and thats a smart idea thank goodness!!

                    Anonymous, 25 Feb 2009So what N97/n95 can do web browsing! So can my N82 but there's no comparison, I never used it when I could access my PC, the iPhone is the only phone I've ever used which offers a decent alternative to a PC.

                    I definately prefer email on the iPhone to my PC.
