I'm keeping my HTC 8125. Why? Because foe me it does (almost) everything I need. It's got wifi, bluetooth, ir, email, web, the whole shebang, and I can (and did) add skins to make it look like an iPhone. BTW, I don't use iTunes and have no desire to do so. Also I have a wide selection of available software that I could add if I wanted to.
same here! using 8125! using iphone wanna-be apps. funny thing is, ive been using it months before the iphone came out! and ppl asked me then, and still ask now, "is that an iphone?" lol. my reply... no, its better... lol. the only thing better now would be an 8525 or advanatge
You're keeping the 8125? You're kidding, right? I own that phone and it's the biggest piece of crap around. Windows Mobile is a lousy OS in terms of UI (pull down menus are good for the desktop, lousy for a handheld), it crashes far too often, the built-in memory reminds me of the 128K Mac days and Pocket IE is a complete joke. It also buttdials like it *wants* to annoy my family and friends....completely awful design in that department. If it weren't for Opera and my Slingbox client, I'd have dumped this thing months ago.

I hear you on that, but imagine the 8125 with 600mhz and an 8 gig hard drive... or 4 gig?
I say that together, the iPhone and Tytn (or even the Wizard/8125) would be the perfect phone.

@The Steven/anyone else that I might have missed.
Thank you for giving good reasons for not buying an iPhone, enjoy your phone.
Life is yours chose what you want...
