Iam not a hater just think that apple is abusing its name to sell outdated technology (meaning the iphone) to fanboys! ow look at me i've got an Iphone, well good for you, please bring your charger everywhere since it won't last long! i"d have a 2 year old nokia or sonyericsson anytime over the iphone. even my old sonyericsson m still kicks ass..wouldn't change for the world!!</p> sorry to say but the Iphone is a cheap copy of a number of phones as well, look at lg’s and sonyericsson earlier releases (except for its os of course).

Once the key flap was removed it was a full touch screen 'PDA' phone with music/video capabilities and 3G.</p> <p>Sure the new phones are faster but they are almost 4 years behind the times. I have the P990i that i bought in January 2007 and upgrading to the iPhone or the Nokia tube seems like a complete waste for a pathetically marginal upgrade in performance and features.</p> <p>These new range of phone do have the 'coolness' factor, but i would rather not be one of the sheep clambering at the doors of my local phone shop, ready and willing to throw away my hard earned money on old technology.</p> The ironic thing is that the iPhone is just a clone of the Sony Erricson P900.

These new range of phone do have the ‘coolness’ factor, but i would rather not be one of the sheep clambering at the doors of my local phone shop, ready and willing to throw away my hard earned money on old technology.

It would be funnier if Apple were not predicted to be so far ahead after 2Q with it's 3G & SDK goodness. Prediction: see more photos this year of iPhone in specialized professional application, behind camera on movie sets, etc. Just like the Palm pics of old. :cheers:</p> LOL “send in the iClones” needs a logo and trademark.

One-up'ing is fabulous. But copying last year's innovation is doing neither.

Apple believes in competing with Apple, which has led to a lot of MP3 innovation in an otherwise stagnant market, and hopefully that’s carry over to the iPhone, but the other companies really need to step it up.

If Nokia one-ups the iPhone, Apple's next version will hopefully be improved in order to meet the challenge. However, this is all hypothetical. I'm not sure I will trade up when the 3G iPhone is released. How ya going to get people to switch to Nokia when they don't even want to switch to the next iPhone?</p> Competition is good.
