I can understand why you may not be impressed with the iPhone OS, you actually like the Palm OS.

It has a touch screen (yes, a perfectly good one), an SD slot currently holding a 2 GB card (which by the way, the iPhone doesn't support), an MP3 player, an NES/SNES emulator, a camera, and a dozen other useful 3rd party apps/games. The web browser looks exactly as you'd expect a web browser to on that size screen, and if I don't like it, I can always install Opera Mobile, which is at least as good as Safari.

Oh, and it's also unlocked GSM, supports GPS applications, and is built tough enough to withstand a bit of a drop.

So what exactly did Apple add? Oh yeah, the WICKED-ASS TOUCH SCREEN! Because it's not just any touch screen, it like, ACTUALLY SENSES TOUCH! And the web looks so much better with Apple's shitcake anti-aliased text! Oh, and, and, and... WIFI! Even though nobody actually uses it, and it drains the battery instantly, it's important for some reason! And just forget about the fact that every smart phone made since 2006 has had it!

Yeah... it looks nice. That hardly qualifies it for an "Invention of the Year" award.



upgrade your damn 650, it's a thing of the past

The 755p looks amazing, I hope the GSM ver comes out soon.

Palm OS is amazing. So much you can do with it and there's so much apps for it

Yeah but that's their fault. A cracked scree on an electronic device is a common thing.

Well its just pressure. If you have your keys in your pocket which is pressed up against your phone/mp3 player etc. Once you sit down pressure is applied and BAM you're in for a new LCD.

Or you have to get a new one... either way you're SOL.

I have been playing NES, SNES, Sega, Genisis, Gamboy Advanced, and Quake on my pocket pc (or any smart phone with WM2003+) for the last 2 years.

If you actually find a feature that is not on other portable deviecs, come back, but please learn whats out there.



Again any PPC using Windows Mobile, can run Opera, which is just as good as iPhone's (stripped down)Safari browser. Opera even allows you to change your settings to fool webpages into thinking it's a desktop, so you can get at more content.

As for wifi, again, please do your research. Most smart phones now come with built in wifi (ex. Toshiba g900).

All of these smart phones, have a fully senstive touch screen. The entire surface area, entire resolution is availble for use by the finger. It is up to software coders to develop apps which take advantage of the extra input interface.

I have been using Resco software, which allows you to do anything with your picture. Crop, zoom, brighten, contrast...omg, all with your finger! Just use the touch screen!

Storage? How about actually putting an SD card slot in your iPhone, rather than being limited by the built in memory. If you want to give somebody else a picture, you need to hook up to a computer, or 'conveniently' email, or send a picture message ($$$).



If you want to make a point about how intuitive the interface is, please do so. If you want to compare features, then stop because we have seen everything before (yes even google maps). They created an INTERFACE, not a phone, or a set of bundled features.


ahahahah... so why isnt the world anticipating your phone????

Give me a breeak buddy.. you can get as technical as you want.. but this beautiful design is nothing compared to ANY phone ive seen. Even the Japanese want this so bad!!!!

The quality of the screen is the most brialliant thing ive seen on any device its size.. you cannot compare it to your phone one bit.. whatever youre phone is?

Plus this thing has sick video quality!!

i mean it is amazing. but the fact that it's locked into AT&T. plus the slower network. i mean there is lots of room for improvement and i bet the improvements will come so fast we won't even know what hit us.


Yes... becuase rogers is so greedy. When i first heard of "data plans" i started to laugh. 200 Megabytes for a certain $$?? I cant even fathom how selfish this stupid rogers is to COUNT megabits and bytes and charge people.

Rogers will not allow unlimited internet on phones like AT & T does.. thats why Europe has got the iphone before us even though we are neighbors to the US. ROgers simply cant stand the fact of lowering their evil rates.

Apple wants people to use this phone without raking in $5000 bills every month for watching several youtube clips

I really dont know what deserves the invention of the year.... i dont know what was actually invented this year to make a decision..

But i think this phone has set the bar WAY high now. Whether people like it or not.. this innovation has had a huge impact on the gadget industry.

When you have people gasping infront of you when you show them the cool features of the phone.. you know you have a great fucking toy!!!
