I wanted the helio ocean when I saw it - the plans are better, there ius a gps, and 3G, but, the iphone is just slicker, sounds better and as far as its shortcomings go, you wont notice because the damn thing is just so damn cooler.

As for the ocean, google maps looks shitty on the small screen, and its slow as well rendering the actual maps. Even though the connection speed is faster, their video subsystem on the ocean lacks.

I would rather have a phone with less springs, and slideing things. You cant "play" with an ocean, you just use it.. the iphone is very WOW.

While the ocean does its job, this is a case where, the thing should have been larger, so it could be made thinner. all that functionality with a small screen sort of stinks.

Lastly, the iphone doesnt need a myspace app, because the broweser rocks. the one in the ocean needs it, because myspace on regular mobile browsers, and even any online community website, sucks. Simply, you need a better browser.

As with WinMo5, you wont see myspace or flicr apps being popular, they simply dont need it.
