The only apple stuff I own is a Touch, and it's the best PDA I can think off.
Although all smart phones can do this, the way it clouds with Google is great.
The way you can call from apps, like the Facebook one, is fantastic.
The games on it are way better than the DS or PSP.
The media playing is second-to-none.
Chicks totally dig guys who have apple products.

Now they've opened up Bluetooth properly, allowed Teethering* and added Notifications.... it's everything I want in a phone.

I got to admit though, if the Pre was out in the UK, that would be a serious competitor. Ditto with N97.


* That was the only reason why I didn't get the 3G.

You cant tether
an iTouch.

When you tether an iphone 3g to a laptop (possible for years with a jailbroken phone) you see how damn fast O2 3G speeds really are. Its like good broadband. Its so slow on the iphone (and other phones) because the processors are far slower than your phone.

The worst aspect of the iphone for me is the web browsing. Its endlessly frustrating and feels like web access in 1996.


edit, sorry you talked about tethering to a phone. soz.

O2 are accepting teethering on the 3.0 software now, so that's why I'm going with the iPhone now and not before.
Before, I used JoikoHotSpot on my N82 to get my other devices online.

youre joking right?
* 3GB Bolt On = £14.68 a month, Wi-Fi is Unlimited in 5,000 hotspots via The Cloud, You need to have it for at least 30 days, if you go over your bundle plan it will cost you 19.6p a MB.
* 10GB Bolt On = £29.36 a month, Wi-Fi is Unlimited in 5,000 hotspots via The Cloud, You need to have it for at least 30 days, if you go over your bundle plan it will cost you 19.6p a MB.

Charging for something that already costs them nothing. Its appalling.
