You can pick up an iphone bran new off the net in the us or $300 dollars I have seen off places like ebay
Compared to other high end phones and when you unblock it etc and start putting apps on it for me that is indeed cheap really compared to the cost here and hence why people are buying them here from there.

Unlocked phones now that is a rip off since you can do it yourself with one button press

I have $300 to waste on a gimmick so I can browse you tube.

What annoys me so much about the iphone.... its not even decent programs. The majority of the default stuff it comes with are just extensions to the browser it has.

Stocks and shares... rendering in its browser.
Facebook... rendering in its browser.

If you took this mini safari or whatever it is out of the equation really you have a rather sh*t phone. :)

The "navigation" people wail about isnt unique... Ill post a video of my phone that cost me nothing :)

Just made a 7min video of some of the functions now Ive made it I remembered I forgot to cover the rotate, and zoomed pan functions of the camera album. Sure I forgot other stuff but itll do. :)

I just pointed out how it can not be when you jailbreak it or watch the software role out with the sdk, lol but never mind :P
Watch more phones go the same way with android from google and the new os from ms in the works

Sam

No you said it was cheap as chips !! I dont consider $300 + contract cheap as chips !!

Was fighting with a problem with activesync at the same time (trying to sync with the works exchange server using RSA VPN and via the phones GPRS simultaneously = deadlock :D)

Sam, read, you do not have to use the expensive contract ^^

Hehe nice review M3ta7h3ad
You should look at viddler - http://www.viddler.com/ nice player, nice speed etc, good quality ouput
Got agree about as standard about the browser but then as my ipod and others and phones shown jailbroken its much more and apps a plenty doing all sorts from useful to useless and you should see more useful ones through th sdk
Still not perfect bu I think the iphone has the greater potential

If you dont want it on contract your looking around 300, again expensive but the contracts from o2 seem a lot more flexible than the iPhone ones also from o2.

True but then it comes with HSDPA, GPS onboard, upto 32gb of storage on a card, runs windows mobile 6 professional with the HTC modifications (the cube, scrolling, camera, gallery, messaging) which gives it the iphone styling, but because it runs WM6 well... just for an example: Clicky I got to application 2100 before I gave up counting :) whoever wants to can continue counting from where I left off :D

3rd party apps... psht windows mobile 6 has it licked :D

Actually I did it... on handandgo.com not counting what you can find just by googling. There are 5991 different 3rd party applications for windows mobile 6 devices.
