Grabber, 27 Nov 2008As a phone the iphone is useless they have even put the aerial in the wrong end of the phoneActually the 4 aerials (GSM, GPS, Wireless HSDPA) are built into the circuit board, this was why they use a plastic back on the iPhone 3G as a metal back would interfere with them.

The iPhone section is over there ----->

Anonymous, 27 Nov 2008Your raving about the iphone but it doesnt: Allow you to record videos of any length Allow y... moreYou can send the photo's to a PC without iTunes (plug it into a USB port and it shows up as a camera), you can upload them to websites Facebook, Photobucket, Flickr etc., you can email them, you can send them over a wireless network

You can see them on a 3.5" screen and zoom them using two fingers.

I can watch Live TV streamed from my PC on it.

I don't have to play ghey Java games on it, it has real 3D games, which because they are so big would bring your puny N-series crashing to it's knees.

Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970David,

The only way to get an outright iPhone in Australia is to get one on a plan or get a jailbroken one from overseas. Honestly, it's not worth getting one from overseas though, way too expensive. I'd reccomend either Telstra or Optus. Optus have better deals, but Telstra have better coverage and speeds with Next G.

Have fun dude.

nick, 26 Nov 2008are you joking, the iphone's 2MP camera with a fixed focus lens against Nokia's 5MP autofocus ... morejust because of the camera that n95 has 5mp you already says n95 is better?
cellphones are not camrera phones. its not a big deal if your phone has 5mp or 8mp. its the over all and whats most useful. iphone is the besr internet cellphone device, and the best touchscreen, the best audio, video player. these features are most commonly used by people.
what the hell a 5mp camera can do to you day by day?
taking photo of yourself and post it to friendster?
or taking photo of your friends everyday?
you suck if you like your n95 5mp camera rather than what iphone can do.
can your n95 play movies?
can your n95 browse the youtube, when your on the road?
can your n95 screen autorotates when you flip it sideways? and finger touch the screen?
these things are new! and cool for a cellphones
who cares for a 5mp cellphone cam?
i got 8mp olympus camera. haha

Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970iPhone's are like xboxes, playstations etc i.e. they have a fairly set price.

Judging by the misinformation in this forum there should be a huge second hand market, the fact that there isn't exposes the bullsh*t.

I think there's something wrong with my iPhone.

I was downloading a Podcast over wireless (enabled with 2.2) and got bored so started playing a game, when I finished playing the game I watched the podcast which had finished downloading in the background.

Clearly my iPhone was multitasking, I read on the Internet that it can't do this.

Is it faulty do you think?

Anonymous, 26 Nov 2008Yes it is, but not as good as Samsung 8510.are you joking, the iphone's 2MP camera with a fixed focus lens against Nokia's 5MP autofocus camera

the N95's camera is still one of the best on the market and the iphone's camera is terrible

how can you even suggest the iphone's camera is up to the standard of the N95's?!?!

you also get VGA video!
