You should reconsider buying the iPhone -$500+- ... boy there are plenty wrong already with it. Quote: "the iPhone's rechargeable battery is sealed inside its case." ...." With the iPhone, it seems you may be tethered to a backup-battery accessory, which is far from ideal."

Who the hell wants to ship their phone off to get it replaced, and not have a phone while they wait.

There are so many capable smartphones in the market already that do more than the iPhone and with less of a dent in the bank, of course you get the dumb schmucks that buy any apple product just for its shiny looks and its fancy price tag. Use your brains people, plus you going to look like all the other dumb schmucks that will be walking around with this iPhone just like the razor - which was nothing great either.

Finally stop comparing the N800 with the iPhone. sorry, but damn you guys are dumb. The N800 IS NOT a smartphone however it compliments a phone well. Just like a PDA or UMPC, neither of which are phones. The reason I don't get a smartphone of any brand is because I don't like everything squished into one device and tiny screen, I prefer having my GPS/Web browsing on a separate device, sure its convenient to have everything in one, but take for instance this scenario out of the many: You're talking on the phone but want to look at GPS map and take notes on the web - sure you have speaker phone but what if its a private conversation.... and what if your friend is using your phone for a private conversation and you want to surf or setup GPS or anything. Think about that - do you really want every single thing in one.
