1. No Hotmail support.
That's Microsoft's fault, you may have noticed that Hotmail only works with Microsoft email clients, upgrade your Hotmail to premium or access it via Safari."
"Why should I pay hotmail an upgrade to premium account? I want to tell you that Fuze which is a window based telephone pushes free hotmail and does Blackberry."
The Fuze is a Windows Mobile 6 device which has a Microsoft email client which supports Hotmail "push" (although in reality the device still has to check periodically and pull new emails down), this feature is one of the main distinguishing differences between Windows Mobile 5 and 6.
Blackberry clients are available for a range of phones and also require Hotmail to be upgraded.
Yahoo, Gmail and a few others offer full IMAP and POP accounts for free so they work with Blackberry, Symbian, iPhone, Windows Mobile and other phone email clients.

Does the N95 even have that function?
iPhone you press home button and on/off button at the same time.

Well Obviously you don't read arabic since what you are seeing is only letters. they are not connected. it's like a toddler jabbering. no sense.
Yes I did know that it does not have video recording but I can not accept having no hotmail support. and obvoiussly you don't own an N95 to know that it does support free hotmail. Why should I pay hotmail an upgrade to premium account? I want to tell you that Fuze which is a window based telephone pushes free hotmail and does Blackberry.
Isn't enough ATT charges more for Iphone data plan($30 instead of $15 for N95)?
Yes I am sorry to say Iphone in so many people's mind is more for the younger generation that cares about Fasion more than functionality.
To the new user yes I did same with my iphone and also with N95 2 years ago too. But when you are not able to browse yother language web sites and read your e mails it would have beeen perfect.
Last thing I am sorry to say it's a phone that every one around. it feels like a uniform.

1. No Hotmail support.
That's Microsoft's fault, you may have noticed that Hotmail only works with Microsoft email clients, upgrade your Hotmail to premium or access it via Safari.
2. No video recording.
You bought it and you never bothered to find this out?
It's written here about 3,000 times.
3. slips easly out of my hand however nothing happened to it very solid. don't tell ATT.
Never had this issue, then again I'm careful with my things, I suggest you use plastic cups, glass one's are obviously too dangerous for you to handle.
4. could not hear it ringing in the mall or fell the vibration in my pocket and that got me in trouble with the wife and I don't want that to happen again. haha.
wtf? Vibration very strong, are you one of these annoying people who alerts everyone within 500 metres that your phone is ringing?
5. poor battery life.
Two days is nowhere near long enough to condition a battery, which software version is it running, you can check under About in General settings.
6. I felt it does not fit my age.
huh? How old are you?
7. It did not support arabic web browsing or texting.
That is a blatant lie, I am looking at Al Jazeera in Safari it's the Arabic version, however there is no Arabic support on the keyboard or phone menu's.
8. I missed my N95 so much.
How did you access your Hotmail?
The version we get in Australia has Asian languages there is no Arabic.

Don't get me wrong I really think apple is on the road to control the smart phone market however they need to take care of the above issues.

No voice calling on the Iphone ?
Google voice search coming to the iPhone really soon
Tags: iPhone, Mobile Applications
Google have taken searching to a next level and announced that they will be releasing an upgrade of their iPhone search application, which will feature voice recognition. So next time when you are out and about - don't just type in your search term, say it.
Why they did not do it with Nokia ?

Yet I prefer ... moreNo. Nokia MAPS are free. You connect your device to the Map Loader and choose which Maps you want on your device. If your memory has the capacity, get several continents. It's when you want voice-assisted navigation, that's when you pay.
The only Google product released exclusively to the iPhone is Google Earth, a program which I can say is a pefect example on just how powerful this device is. (It closes 3 times out of ten though, early software from Google I guess)

iLUVZtehIPOWNZ, 16 Nov 2008Unfortunately, it's the same reason why Motorola handsets are selling RAZR's like hotcakes.
... more"people buy the device based on how it is marketed.That's the majority"
not majority, i would say half because the other half is based on their needs and preference.
