So feature-wise (and price-wise), it seems like the iPhone at least matches or beats the Treo Pro. Sad. I do really really like the dedicated buttons they added though, I wish more phones had them.
Do we have to write up the lists of what the iPhone can't do, and this phone (and pretty much any other smartphone) can do, yet again?
Seriously, just stop dragging the iPhone into every damn thing already. We know it exists. We know what it can do. We read engadget, there is no way for us not to know what the iPhone can do. We're tired of all the comments comparing every piece of gadget you can hold in your hand to the iPhone.
Do you homework, buddy. The iPhone has one and only one advantage: a larger screen with multi-touch. Other than that, try this with the iPhone: * a real keyboard * send pictures by email * video recording * copy/paste text * view Java web pages (about 1/3 of all pages out there!) * Install a million and one applications for Windows * Office apps where you can edit the documents * Stereo Bluetooth * Use it as a 3G computer modem * Any other network than AT&T * remove / replace the battery * Store half of my music collection on the additional 32 Gb of memory....
