    chad, 19 Jan 2009i bought my 5800 one month ago ,lots lots lots of problems : ear speaker volume , touch screen... morethere are thousands of applications for 5800, same as the n-series.

    your 5800 is probably a defect. poor camera on the 5800...hmmm...i dont think so. the camera of the 5800 is way better than the iphone due to carl zeiss optics lens, auto focus, dual led flash.

    again, all the iphone has to offer is the fast connection and touchscreen. all around capabilities...thumbs down for the iphone.

      iphone is old school. apple needs to "really" upgrade it, not just the softwares, but the phone itself.

          Hi everyone,

          I'm an Iphone user for some time now. And here is my Feedback on the Iphone.
          There are a lot of things that I do like:

          First is the memorystorage ( 8/16 GB ). That just a lot and not much seen on a cellphone.
          It gives me the abillity to upload all my favorite mp3's and movies to the Iphone.
          With i-Tunes I can install all the sofware I use in daily life, like: Weather, traffice reports, trainschedules and much more.

          The main menu exists of small pictures that indicate the function. If you slected a function you can find a very easy submenu. You could say it is idiot proof.
          Also I must say I like the Safari web browser. It opends practicly everything. I can use my online banking and much more.
          If you have 3G coverage you can internet with great speeds. I'm a Dutch T-Mobile customer and am happy to say that I have a 2mb internetconnection if I have full coverage.
          If you don't have 3G coverage you can use the Wifi connection.
          Nearly all the basic functions are available on the Iphone.
          Unfortunately mms is not a standard function in the software. What is very unfortunate for someone like me who oftens sends friends pictures if I'm clubbing or at a big dance-event. Naturally there is a way to activate mms on you Iphone, but I would advise you to google for that.

          For the people that are fund with gaming I've got some good news to.
          A lot of games actually have some great graffics. I myself am an online gamer, and know what graffic does to a game. I must say a game like crash bandicoot is very graffical. Better then we might expect in the firts place.

          Also the mailing aplication is one of the best I've ever seen. Apple made it easy for everyone to ad your company email adressen or your private email account. Therefore you can always view your email on the road.
          With all the features that are granted by Apple, and what you might have found to make the Iphone more usefull to your own needs, it makes this cellphone one of a kind.
          Big plusses from me.

                mag-a-k, 18 Jan 2009I am thinking of buying IPhone, need some opinion and experiences related to this phone!THNXIt's a wonderful phone with minimum drawbacks. Overall if you ask me to rate it, I give 95 marks out of 100. You cannot forward the sms in it. It sometimes gets hanged but sometimes our home pc also gets hanged due to wrong functions. Its touch screen, camera quality, sound, features are wonderful. Go ahead, you will not regret.

                  i bought my 5800 one month ago ,lots lots lots of problems : ear speaker volume , touch screen , software, camera. the dealer change the phone for me 4 times and still have the ear volume problem, they fix it once and didnt work.
                  I changed my 5800 into the iphone 3g, no features in iphone like nokia but i can say using iphone is a pleasures , volume in headset is much much louder than nokia , picture on phones screen is much better in iphone even its a 2mp camera, in 5800 u dont need the flash light coz with the flash or without it the picture is not clear in the dark. incomparable touch screen :iphone is much better .surfing the web is much faster and easier via safari in iphone than nokia. thousands of applications and tunes downlaodable for iphone , for nokia there s only about 20 or 30 applications only .
                  U cannot compare nokia 5800 to iphone its totally 2 different phones . 5800 is like a toy

                      $A2000 almost covers it.

                            I can't see the N97 costing much less than the N96, the N95 8GB is $A1099.

                                  According to reviews the 5800XM, Nokia's new touchscreen, has a very poor camera despite it's specs.

                                  I'll stick with my iPhone, I've posted links to pictures here I took with it, I even used Flickr so the EXIF data would show.

                                  Continually saying the iPhone camera is bad doesn't make it so.
