Comment I read elsewhere which I pretty much agree with.

iPhone UI is 1 year ahead of the competition, hardware is 18 months behind.

It will be interesting to see that the Apple Store does for available software, Nokia have MOSH and Download! as similar tools and they do work very well. I would say Nokia don't 'push' this part of the N series anywhere near enough. Itsprobably due to being so far in front for so long they might be resting on laurels a little too much. Hopefully Apple will give them some vigour in bringing this to life.
You yourself know I like Apple kit for its general stability etc, its just too damn expensive for what you get. Maybe its due to being brought up with no money and I'm too 'tight' to see past it
To be fair I don't tinker too much with my phone, I download apps directly onto it over wifi using the above tools and it just installs them. no mess no fuss. I am a power user of my phone though and push it to the limits of whatever it can do. I'm 'interested' in new technology and how it can make my life easier, Nokia offer that in spades, Apple offer me a pretty screen.
Don't get me wrong. There are a heck of a lot of people who the iPhone is perfect for. My issue is the whole "its the best phone in the world" crap, cause it aint.
come on, how about this for a glaring mistake, one of its whole reasons of living is as a fashionable music tool, so why no A2DP bluetooth headphone support?????? what could be 'cooler' than listening to the music of your funky iphone on funky wireless headphones?
