r u guys saying that we dont have the rights to own an iphone?r u saying that we cant enjoy our iphones?if the iphone doesnt have this simple features,you guys would probably say "what?no copy n paste no bluetooth no bla bla..i dont want this phone"but then,when apple include this features in the new os,you guys would say "what?apple now include the simple features that were on the phones years ago?thats so lame.."..either your corrupted,jealous or not satisfied with your 'things',dont blame apple for making iphone,n for you guys who want flash and a high mp camera in a phone,just buy a camera. Of course other phones,brands and company have their own special features,not all of them have it. realize this people - chill it

    I'm using nokia E71 like I said, but i get iPhone just to see how it works since I get it in T-mobile for nothing. I have to say once more iPhone even if it's right now "half smart" phone with many missing function thera are many people who don't need to edit xls file during speech and jumping between excel and mail while in speech. Copy paste was long time ago in nokia but the way Apple implemented it is amazing, ant I will be glad if someboy corrctm but nokia cannot copy text from web page. One answer on songs and videos, you can save on iPhone whatever you want from your CDs, mp3-s, etc. free of charge.

      100 new features: video recording, probably on Iphone 4, phones had that 10 years ago, and this brilliant so called Extremely smart phone cant do the basisc

      photos: zoom, flash?

      iphone 3g, but I don't see how I cant have a video conversation with anyone since the camera is at the back of the phone
      bluethoot(not only with a mac) probably Iphone 5

      more mobile carriers? what if u leave the country

      more compatibility with windows? so ppl. wont have to wait 20 min to copy a song.

      itunes alternatives, cause no offence itunes sucks.

      also control of user over the Iphone( so he can put music and videos that he wants, not only that apple wants, and forces you to buy) that's gonna be like 2050

      copy files from more computers.?

          hahaaa, every single phone out on the market today has a 3.15mp camera STANDARD, and Samsung, Nokia, LG and Sony Ericsson are making 8 and 12 megapixel camera phones with HD video recording, and Apple comes out with a 3mp camera.. Hahahahaaa they´re so lame. COME ON APPLE! WE´RE IN 2009! Get real.

              i m really surprised and i think everyone have taken it into account that why the APPLE did't include the common applications in the iphone like radio, flash, java, ...............

                Hi all iPhone and Nokia funs. I have to say that I'm still Nokia fun but as I said I have also iPhone and I think Jobs did a very good business. He jumped into new are for Apple, telecom, and showed other players like Sony Ericsson, and also Nokia how to make phones. Of course multitasking, real multitasking, is missing and some other features but for the majority it is amazing phone with extra ordinary interface etc. I don't doubt that Apple will release very soon multitasking and ability to fetch and save attachments from mail. Of course Nokia had it long time ago but this is one more thing that has to come to Nokia managers and to think how something like iPhone which is on my opinion "half smart phone" is subject of discussion all over the world and Nokia's E71, E72, E75, N95, N97, N90, N.. E.. are almost forgotten. SE is down already LG and Samsung are copy pasting iPhone Nokia cannot just copy paste it has to come with something revolutionary like Apple did. I hope my English is goo enough to understand :-)

Or is it your Nokia phones that made you stupid? You're better off keeping quiet cuz yer ranting made me laugh so hard, its not cool to be doing that beside my iPhone. Ok...listen up all you Nokia, Samsung whatever the stupid brands that you use which always never fail to piss me off with their stupid dumb interface which im sure, is designed for Donkeys. All of you with those phones, pull yer pants down, bend over and shove it in the place where the sun don't shine. Cuz thats what those phones are simply good for! Haha! Simply sour grapes...tsk!

                      I didn't like iPhone I had a lot of Nokia phones and I still have but I also have now iPhone. In fact you can receive call/s and go to contacts to find some other number or jump to mailboxes or calendar or SMS. You can even open Quicoffice and edit excel or word etc. while phone is in speech but the big difference is that Nokia (I have now E71 and E51) is doing those actions much faster and with real multitasking. iPhone is, let say, simulating multitasking and you have very very slow multitasking when it's about third party applications. Memory is reason. Apple doesn't allow to those 3dr part app. to run in background, but it allows to save some amount of data in case that you switch from Quickoffice into mail when ou return to Quickoffice you have to wait that iPhone load excel file. Jumping between calendar, contacts, SMS, mails etc while in speech is quite OK.

                            PhtN, 17 Jun 2009this is small step for man, but big for mankind I will upg... moretell me how u use a phone without multitasking? u are on the phone u cant get a number from the contacts. This is a simple thing for phone like nokia 1100. only ppl with no knowledge of phone technology say this is a great phone, or should i say a simple minde. u said the u dont need bluetooh file transfer. if u stand next to someone u email them a picture instead of sending via bluetooh? this phone was made by ppl that like to scratch their left ear with the righ arm.
                            i knwo that the iphone has a great toutchscreen and the os is not so bad but thats all it gots. wake up ppl. apple is playing you for fools makeing tones on money for a phone that has the features of a phone from 2005. but u pay and pay and apple make fun of u makeing each year small update that to simple minds seem "wow i never knew a phone could do that. iphone is the best."
                            in 2009 they brag about a phone being able to copy/paste/cut and being able to record videos? =)) i cant laught hard enough. u all know this phone sucks but since u paid so mutch money for it now u have to defend it. mass effect is working on weaklings like a charm.

                              Well Well...talk about the other brands...haven't you all see? All those brands that you mentioned are all copying iPhone. The one that really knocked me out laughing is LG. They ought to get sued by Apple. Yet...you go around saying this and that about iPhone. For gods sakes...im sure deep down inside you are just one sour grape. Get over it, bury the past and the bull you've been crapping about iPhone and get yourself one. We iPhone lovers are loving people and we can forgive you anytime. But please don't try to make us as miserable as you are cuz its not workin...I dont need Flash Player cuz I have Youtube app...which some phone models need to rip that off too! Wake up and smell the coffee!

                                      I will upgrade my Iphone :D

                                      I can't understand people who compare Iphone and Samsung and Nokia! Iphone is the best touchscreen i've ever used and Iphone has great apps...so unique. All other mobile's can hide in front of it. I don't need bluetooth, i send via mail, i don't need video camera with flash, i have it that's why dig.camedia exists, that's why cameras exist.

                                      People who never tried Iphone are commenting bad about it.. don't be jealous, just try it and you will SEE WHO IS N1
