i used to be very much into this all in one idea of phones, when i worked in the phone shops i was always getting the latest phones.
However i have since realised there is just no substitute for seperating them. I have a Casio Exilim S770 now which is thinner than my phone and the same size in every other dimension. Yet its a 7 megapixel and takes better pics than any phone ever could, plus many more functions.
As far as MP3 player goes, i've found the W850 to be a bit lacking in place of some stand alone MP3 players, it does a decent enough job but not quite good enough.
The iPhone seems to be more of an MP3 player with built in phone rather than phone with built in MP3 player. As such the phone starts to lack some of its functions. 3G is essential to me, i can use it to find out sports information on the run, plus it ties in with my TomTom to give me up to date traffic info on there, invaluable....
I have never really been a fan of apple products but I might just get myself an iTouch
I mean £199 for an 8GB iTouch against how much for an iPhone?
You will either be into apple or not, i cant get my head why people despise them so much. i changed my mind about apple products when I decided to try them. I will NEVER NEVER go back.
Every man to themselves, but please try the products before you slate them. Then and only then will I debate your comments. Why despise the iphone?? i dont understand!!!! i played about with it for hours last night and actually seeing it and touching it, the thing is an absolute work of art. Sure it lacks some features, but so does everything. When do you ever buy something these days and 3 weeks later there is something better. Anyway I talked to orange today and there 2.5G orange edge service is totally compatible with Iphone, so top marks there.
tell me DRT what it lacks that i would require of another phone??? I think your statement is a bit far fetched there. Why do you Loath the thing, has it offended you in any way, has it dropped a nuke on your house. Its a f*****g phone for god sake.
