voice dialing eh, that reminded me of my ericsson t28 I had when they first came out years ago, it was brilliant at voice dialing, even though you had to train it I think its been the best phone i've owned for that. I wonder how much they are on ebay these days, hmmmm

I wanted the iPhone for ages before it was released, then when it was i realised i realised it wasnt worth going to 02, on an expensive contract blah blah

I did however by "the iphone beater". The LG Viewty. Pretty much the same with 8 meg camera and all the usual phone stuff. Kept me happy for 3 months but now im bored of it

Apparently is was popular in america but ripped apart here because our phones are so much more advanced that over there.

Either way it still look pretty

I have no need in one, plus I wouldn't want to be locked into a contract with Apple. I want to choose my contract and who I pay my money to.

You can zoom in and out, and move around using touch


I've got one, and love it, so no complaints here.

Contracts with AT&T or O2. I was with O2 before the iPhone without any problems, plus now the contracts have changed, lots more minutes and texts for the same money

Any iphone can now be unlocked. Hackers pretty much have total control over what they can do with it. The bootloader, the GSM baseband and the firmware can pretty much be installed and uninstalled at will. I believe certain talented people are working on a modified bootloader that would bypass any future Apple security measures, and would allow all future firmwares to be unlocked.

There's a test that's been done that has shown oh so many times over that a 3 or 4 year old can handle some things way better than exec types, it's proven that execs have a tendancy to way over complicate.

I've got an iPod Touch, and it's a phenomenal web browsing tool, easy to zoom & move around the page as required (and very quick & responsive). Love the Touch.
Having said that, I'd never go near the iPhone, just don't need all the smartphone/PDA gubbins.

Just ordered myself a LG Viewty, great phone, rubbish name (and free, on a £25/month contract that has more minutes/texts than the iPhone contract, and it's 3G!). Wish everything could be touchscreen!

Execs complicate things?
I don't believe it
I had one exec describe data being synch'd between the Caribbean and the UK as a road (network) being traveled by ants (packets). When the ants stopped walking, synchronization would fail.
