People want one mobile device with more and more function and capability .. why carry phone, camera, mp3 player, video player, game console , or even laptop for email and net.. when one device can do it all.
As for Original question… Iphone has best and easiest interface outhere, but typical Apple crap is holing it back.. no support for any other video format then Qtime, all the “I” software crap, cant change battery, 3g speeds limited..
Berry black continues with berry rep for being the best email tool out there.. only now they add some multimedia, web and esthetics to it… and windows 6.1 mobile which is the god awfull piece of crap.. thrust me i deal with it every day.
Good alternative to both of these is Samsung Omnia.. but once again.. Windows 6.1 😡
Like i said my advice.. wait for few more months and see how First Android phones shape up.. HTC will have one in November. Feb next year will see windows 7.0 mobile.. and ive heard some good things about it.. If Msoft cocks up on 7.0 like they did on 6.1 its long kiss good bye … they wont get second chance with Android and Apple leading the way… and mobile device market will overtake PC market in next decade or so.
My advice…wait few months and see.. if you cant wait get Omnia for MMedia (can play DivX) and apps.. or BBerry Black for emails and buissines. As much as love iphone idiot prove interface.. untill they fix upstreem data flow, and replacable battery, and allow third party apps together with DivX support player… im not getting one.

Neither.
At the risk of sounding like an old fart, why the hell do you need a PHONE that has all this crap attached to it??
Wanna watch stuff on it? Get a TV – picture and sound quality is better.
Wanna browse the web? Get a laptop or desktop PC. As above.
Wanna play games? There’s a myriad of games consoles out there. As above.
Take pictures? OK, for this one I’ll say that the camera on my phone is actually better spec than the digi-cam I bought from Comet! Plus, using the camera on the phone means that don’t have to carry something else down to the farmyard!
I’ve got a Sony Ericsson K750i. Had it for over a year now, and it has NEVER let me down. I’ll replace it eventually, sure, but I don’t see the point in having a phone with XYZ bloody things on it that you don’t really need!!!
But that’s ALL I use my phone for – texts, phone calls and taking a few pictures now and then.
Decide what you REALLY want out of it before you lay any money down. Or you could just get a PHONE!!! :rolleyes:
