That is hardly a fair comparison, as the user interface on the N8x0 is a known bad thing. I have had many mobile devices and none have had as bad of a ui as the 8x0. A man with a pen and paer could get more things done and faster!


I would also like to see how long it takes the iphone GPS to get a fix from a cold start. Anyone willing to bet it will be shorter than the N810's time? I'd put money on that.
The iPhone will have A-GPS which will give better performance overall. It's not a fair comparison.

In all seriousness though, this thread has gone into infinite loop. The same arc of arguments being brought up again and again, sometimes even by the same posters...

I think it's better to tag the thread as 'Looping argument' or 'Rant here' or 'Angry Geeks Anonymous' just so everyone is aware of what they're getting into.
