Super, how easy is it to use via something like iTunes..
When I had my iPod Mini that thing used to pee me off getting it to connect and put traxx on it
Mobile Phones are easier then Apple for MP3's I think No Cables annoying Discs.. just plug in your memory card and go!!!!
I would like to try iPhone but I wouldn't own one it's too large and it looks like it will break if you dropped it a few times!
it's something to admire and once again will draw many thieves with the Apple headphones

The iPhone too large? Have you seen one? It actually takes up less space than your K800i!!
The iPhone is just 4.96 cubic inches
Whereas the K800 is 6.62 cubic inches, over 33% bigger than the iPhone!

those pics back there or on other threads make it look biger then the P1i lol
are you saying pics lie
Posted by Jools
Well... it may be some millimeters taller or wider, but it's much thinner, so actually takes up less volume!

It may take up less volume and be thinner, but it only has a 2mp camera.
The iphone isnt any more revolutionary then the k750 was. im sure it is a pleasure to use and a great phone, but all of the falsified hype puts me off along with the lack of 3g.
someone was mentioning the price being subsidised as it was too low. Sorry the iphone isnt that advanced or expensive a phone compared to a N95. the £269 is the cost of the handset and buys it outright, just like in the US.

So what? If you need a phone with more megapixels, then clearly the iPhone isn't for you. Any serious photographer wouldn't be using a phone to take photos anyway.
Your T650 doesn't have wi-fi, or a multi-touch UI, or access to YouTube, or integration with the worlds most popular music store, or TV out, or Visual Voicemail, or threaded SMS, or a full HTML email client, or many other things the iPhone has.
Every phone on the market has pros and cons, and specs that don't exactly match other phones - GET OVER IT. If the iPhone doesn't suit your needs, keep walking, pass on by, be happy with the choice of phone you made.
Personally, the iPhone doesn't suit my needs either, so I haven't bought one. But I don't feel the need to point out every difference between it and other phones at every opportunity.

Jools if you want to discuss the Iphones size or features dont go slagging of people for having a different point of view and pointing out its weaknesses. I dont have nor did I mention the t650I. If you want to hype up and praise the Iphone for the its features, im allowed to point out its weaknesses. Oh, Edge also fails drastically on a phone thats meant to surf the web. Enjoy streaming your you tube videos on 188kbps while I plug my k850I into my laptop and play online games wherever i want XD.

Erm, I think you should read what I wrote again - I haven't slagged anyone off. Your point about the 2MP camera had absolutely nothing to do with the comments regarding the iPhones physical size.
I dont have nor did I mention the t650I.
But you do have it as your avatar? That frequently suggests that is the phone of that user. But, whatever, everything I said equally applies to the K850i.
If you want to hype up and praise the Iphone for the its features,
I wasn't hyping it up or praising it. Just correcting a misconception that it was large. That's reporting a fact, not an opinion.
Oh, Edge also fails drastically on a phone thats meant to surf the web. Enjoy streaming your you tube videos on 188kbps while I plug my k850I into my laptop and play online games wherever i want XD.
How can I enjoy streaming YouTube when I don't even have an iPhone? As I said, the iPhone isn't for me either, (although I am interested in it) but I don't go around threads posting irrelevant comments.
im allowed to point out its weaknesses.
Having a 2MP camera isn't necessarily a weakness. My W610i has the same, and is perfectly adequate for what I, and many others, want. Having no camera at all could be seen as a weakness.
Clearly the iPhone is not the phone for you, yet you're reading and replying to threads about it. Anyone who is genuinely interested in the iPhone will know its technical specifications (and weaknesses), as they are clearly noted on the Apple web-site and in reviews.

My point on the 2MP was explaining why it is so thin, because it ONLY has a 2MP camera!
Its not rocket science to figure that out. If they had opted for a better camera they would have had to make the phone bigger to accomodate it.
And also if it was 3G, they would have needed a camera on the front too.
So maybe it doesnt have 3G or a better camera due to size restrictions?
Put in a 5MP camera and 3G, and how much bigger would the Iphone have been? Twice the depth? XD

Not necessarily. You can have 3G data capability without a camera on the front. I've never met a single person who has ever made a video call on their mobile phone. It just hasn't taken off for video calls, so front mounted cameras generally go unused. But for high-speed data 3G is a must.
So maybe it doesnt have 3G or a better camera due to size restrictions?
Apple have said many times that the reason it doesn't have 3G is due to the high power drain of existing 3G chips.
It doesn't have a better camera because it's an iPod-based phone (music & video), not a photography-based phone (like SE's Cybershot series).
Plus, if you see the The Official iPhone Pictures Thread you'll see the quality of the iPhones pictures is actually quite good. Better than many other 2MP camera phones, even though its a basic fixed focus camera.

Yea well, I would definately have bought an I-phone (at its current price) if it was 5MP camera, HSDPA and available on T-mob UK, even if it was 1cm thicker, I wouldnt be complaining.
Guess I'll wait for Iphone 2 and buy it during my 18 months on the K850i.
Actually, it still wont be available on T-mobile will it? So I cant buy it. (Not paying for a seperate data plan when I have 10 gig per month on T-mob).

Apple is pathetic.
Untill they make it HSDPA, and unlock it to use on every netwrork, yes they are completely pathetic.

I guess this can be locked now as its gone right off topic and is just repeating what has been said in so many other iphone threads
