Re: iphone4 vs N900

Lol, what do you mean what is the point? Never bantered with your Android-toting friends??? I have that type of debate daily. But then again I am a sad, sad man.

Re: iphone4 vs N900

If you have to be 'better' than other ppl to feel good about yourself, then you won't be happy. Ever.

(and you're not worthy of n900)

Me and my room mate are fighting over which is the best phone n900 or iphone, ofcourse i fight along with the N900 lovers, but i need your help to
give me some valid points.

Any phone is better than another phone for some set of users, and that other phone would be better for a different set of users, so this is a pointless exercise.

Fight over something with more meaning :D

Re: iphone4 vs N900

you can hold N900 with left hand too :D

Re: iphone4 vs N900

Ok... I'm just having fun but why not do this.

Log into your webhost, upload a flash file (*.swf - has to be Flash Player 9 exported) and then have him point his browser to the newly, right in front of him *.swf file that you uploaded and then ask him to repeat those steps.

That's one way of showing capability perhaps.

Go figure. :confused:

Edit: For the main topic of discussion, N900 is the only thing with cell modem and xterm out of the box, and fits in my pocket. Thus, it's not even comparable to anything else.

Just ask him to join TMO and he will know what he is missing.

Re: iphone4 vs N900

if you are not sure what the good points of the n900 are then you are much better off with an iphone 4, agreed.

browsers on the app store allow simeltaneous tabbed browsing btw.

Re: Nokia N900 vs. iPhone 4G

Is there any real comparison available from these two? (not just specs listed)

(eventhoug I still think that there is not much point to do so as there is so much difference between phones, just curious about the issue):D
