Aok, are there anything comparable to Pidgin on iPhone?Or maybe, xchat?And can I even use iPhone to connect to remote host using OpenVPN or maybe, some SSH app will be here?No?What?Developers are only allowed to write some web crap as "software"?Yep, total winner.But n800 is rather resembles PC - if some feature needed you have to install software and got it.iPhone will be just phone, not even smartphone since smart phone means ability to run not lame web crap but a decent applications written in native code so they can run fast enough to decode video for example.Web crap will never have speed enough to decode DIVX on it's own.So, on SMART phones as well as on n800 you can set up NEW player if you dislike built-in one.On iPhone you can not.You're FORCED to stick to "software that works".Without options.Kinda boring device.For example no built-in players will be ever able to compete with mplayer on n800 or TCPMP on palm\PocketPC.Built in players are supporting too few formats.They're toys, even if they're working ok.
