We all have to admit that the iphone changed the game. Anyone who denies that is an idiot (sorry if I offend anyone but it is true)

Apple has done something great. It's not as open as we would like it to be but it works and the integration with the operating system is top notch. There is no fiddling around to get things to work, it just works.

The iphone does what it was advertised to do and the SDK will make it an even greater device. I remember when the iphone was first announced, lots of people embraced it and lots of people said it was all fluff. When it actually came out, it blew away the competition.

There are articles and articles about how every mobile phone competitor was knocked off their feet, how they are scrambling to put out iphone clones.

I don't know, if we just look at the data that's out there, it's pretty clear that the iphone, in its niche, is the best. The n800 allows you to do alot but not without headaches and heart ache.

I'm a proud owner of the n800 and use it daily as a music device (i use rhapsody alot). I've been using Canola as well for managing photocasts, podcasts and listening to my private music collection. The youTube plugin that's coming out should be great. My problems are in how I have to jump through hoops to sync my n800 with my calendar, contacts, etc.

All that being said, I'll be getting an iphone soon. I look forward to syncing it with iCal, iphoto, itunes (via their extensive audio/video podcast library). Also being able to play videos that play through itunes will be awesome.

We really shouldn't be comparing these two devices.
