As a matter of fact, iPhone is not coming up with new phone designs. No doubt they have a big market share in smart phones but do you not think that coming 3rd time with same design will keep their users intact with them for a long time. Change in design is must to prolong the life cycle of the product (Marketing Strategy).

As far comparing Android with iPhone, then I will vote to Android because it is not old OS but still catching pace and have 16% market share as compared to blackberry with 3% only. If any mobile company only work with Android OS and bring new features in its phone then it will be a big challenge for iPhone. Right now iPhone OS developer and Mobile maker is same so they are working good with product but Android is open source and dependent on manufacturer on phone and its spec also.

iPhone is going well but you can't deny that Android is Open Source and in present time Open Source grows more faster than others. Just see how Mozilla is giving hard time to Internet Explorer.... So expect cut throat competition between Android and iPhone OS soon.

                it's about time htc realized the need for 3.5 mm headphone jack, no flash on the camera is hurtin, good job on screen res and processor/ram

                        I disagree with everything that has been said on the forum, and the poor, uninformed quality of the questioning. Therefore everyone should stop posting about this, or I will ask GSM Arena to force you to stop.

                              Don't know why people like winmo so much, its rubbish. Symbian, mac os and android are far better platforms. I like the fact HTC is going with android, as in the future it will open more opportunities, especially once it takes off and more apps and stuff are available. Not a HTC fan myself, but I think it's positive as android has some powerful capabilities and they seem to be the ones most noticing that.

                                  Is this a brick or a cell phone - the design is terrible. Everything else is amazing.

                                      No iTunes! Excellent decision for HTC. Boy, that 5 megapixel camera's sweet! I love how it has that designer curve in the lower end, a shame that other people think of it as a banana (says a lot about them!). Teflon coating that even Gizmodo says makes the iPhone feel like a cheap piece of kit.

                                      I've had an iPhone, a BlackBerry, and a Windows Mobile device, and at the moment, if you can live without the apps on the iPhone, this looks like the best deal you can get.
