HTC Hero - its what I've been using for the last 2 months as has Vixis.

I will agree that perhaps the iPhone has a better UI, but it doesn't multitask like the Hero does, and the Google Marketplace has a wider range of apps, most of which are free.

Setup is VERY simple and if you already use Google for mail, it will automatically import your contacts etc.

Oh and Treacle - as said above, the iPhone is a cracking piece of kit, as long as you dont mind being Steve Jobs Bitch

but it doesn't multitask like the Hero does

Thats the main reason i like my android phone, has several things going on all at once, i want more of a laptop replacement experience from a phone.

Saying all that, although i like android, alot of the applications i want are still windows only.

I got talked into a N97 2 weeks ago while in Phones4U - BIG mistake.

I've got technical problems with it & can I get Phones4U or vodafone to accept ownership of the problem - can I b*ggery.

It's not very good & I now believe that I was talked into it because it's just so pants that no one wants it & they had piles upon piles of then in the storerooms.

I recall not being sure where the British Museum was. Treacle had his flash iphone and said he'd use GPS, I had a small photocopy of the map. The iphone failed to register our location. The map got us there in no time. I'm still going to take some convincing

the touch screen on that phone is awful, the only good touch screen phones are the ones that are presure activated, well they are the only ones that work for me

Will always remain on top of all the other junk in my huge handbag rather than sneaking to the bottom under the half eaten sweets

In that case you want the HTC Wizard. Although it doesn't say it does all that in the specs here, but if it's a wizard, it must be able to do all that and more.

It's fairly clear though, that the i-phone so more popular than the N97.

Its the same as the iphone isn't it, the G1 is at least, both touch capacitance, which is neeed for multitouch.

Check. One crappy work phone and one Nokia 5800.

Incidentally, how desparate are the music industry to break iTunes' control, that they give away "unlimited" songs for two years on the Nokia Comes With Music phones?

Corrected that for ya

Not read the other posts, i'd be here forever... But my iphone 3g is the best phone ive ever had and the annoying adverts which state 'there's an app for that' are unfortunately true, its an awsome phone.

Id never go back to nokia, they are in my mind, so behind now. iPhones just lack the whole camera experience. Personally I dont use it so it is therefore not a problem.

A new iPhone with a 5mp camera is rumored to be coming out, but not sure when that is.

Perhaps the new Nexus One? Supposed be be amazing!

After reading though a few posts about software with the Nokia's, mine never seems to break, but if it was to break, they are very easy to re-install software + if you fancy 'jailbreaking' them then the iphone's capabilities are endless! I jailbroke mine initially because im on Vodafone but there are so many more apps available and also customising your phone
