Brenda, 22 Aug 2009Of course I make sense. What if I really have no need for ... moreu may not use the GPS, but for 2nd hand market its a bonus. Can sell at higher price.

dunno abt anyone else, but i buy a phone based on what features i need that a particular model has

what features it has that i dont need is not important. better to have something and not use it than needing it but not have it.

    Anonymous, 22 Aug 2009you just made no sense there. You said if you bought a 5800... moreOf course I make sense. What if I really have no need for 3g and gps because I don't want to get a data plan? So yes, it would have made more sense if I got the 5530 instead. Now if both of them were released at the same time, I would've had better choices and woul've chosen the 5530 instead of the 5800 that I ended up using as a 5530.

          I know iphone 3g users, even 2g users, that dont' want the iphone 3g-s.

            oho, 22 Aug 2009Yes, for the being time it is still not that powerful devic... morewhat apple needs to do to the iphone is focus on the camera part by increasing the mp and adding a powerful led or xenon flash. The large screen is a waste for photos.

            Hopefully, the next iphone has that so I might consider it again. Otherwise, the n900 for me or the n98.

            I have owned an iphone before, but I wasnt fascinated and satisfied.

I... moreYes, or at least, it should do, cuz if they wasted the next chance and produce another minor upgrades of the currently used one, they would lose their market, and this time is forever, but I don't guess so, Apple are much more smarter than that, I think they're preparing a surprise, and I hope so!

                      Andrew Tan, 22 Aug 20091st generation no 3G with OS 1.0 2nd generation add on 3G ... moreYes, for the being time it is still not that powerful device that can satisfy everyone, but take my word, wait for the next iPhone. I don't own an iPhone, and I doubt I would, but I really really do think Apple is preparing for something really big. Actually, I might go with the previewer of the N900 at mobile-review.com when he said: "by the year 2010-2012 Nokia, Apple & Google will be the leaders of this industry" and this is already being done, with the inroduction of Maemo, along with OSX and Android, they will be already the leaders, it's now the competition of softwares, and the 3 companies are entering it well, everyone with his own way!!

                        You don't make any sense. 5800 is the higher version of the 5530.

                          Brenda, 22 Aug 2009If you are referring to the iphone, you are very wrong. The... more1st generation no 3G with OS 1.0
                          2nd generation add on 3G & camera 2.0MP and OS 2.0
                          3rd generation up the processor and camera 3.2MP and OS 3.0

                          But beside above mention, they is not a huge updates, all OS is upgradable in all generation.(Ya I know you will miss some function) 3rd generation even lazy till case also 99% same. 3rd generation is using as said 2x speed processor than 2nd generation but due to it not so good v3.0 firmware, you can't really tell the different.

                          All I can said it is just a minor updates.

                          I don't have iPhone but I do have iPod touch (OS 3.0 is damn bad coding, it is not as smooth as OS 2.0, you can see a lagging during rotate landscape and effect often gone with few seconds lagging during closing any apps you open) and I test all the iPhone everytimes it release. Sorry it is not my taste yet, iPhone is a fun toy but not a great business smartphone.

                              5530 has no gps, no 3g ,no secondary camera and the battery isnt as good as 5800.

                              But you would be upset if you bought 5800 a month b4 5530 is released.

                              I guess you prefer a phone with less specs.

Those three phones were announced in the same year with only a few months interval. Those 3 phones look identical both on hardware and software specs. If I bought the 5800 a month before the 5530 was launched, I'd be upset, wouldn't you?
