Obviously he didn't approve it since now there's a "Yay iPhone!" post in there.
I prefer sites where the comments aren't run through meatspace filters who show bias.

And I just had to add the following which you might not ever see over there:

ScummVM, Star Control II, FreeCiv, and Wesnoth (my favs)
Not one but TWO browsers (the Safari-based Webkit can also be compiled for it for a total of three different browsers)
Flash 9 support (you know, for the "real internet")
16 GB of REMOVABLE storage space (32GB coming soon with 16GB SDHC cards coming down the pipe)
dual/triple-booting into alternate operating systems
Actual video chat/calling
Use 3G via tethering to a 3G-enabled phone
Removable, user-replaceable battery
standard mini-USB port for data transfer
Ability to use Bluetooth GPS receivers
Ability to use Bluetooth keyboards
A2DP stereo Bluetooth capability (WTF was Apple thinking leaving THIS one out at launch?)

Also, someone has already created a new soft-keyboard that mimics the iPhone's keyboard only it's a little more usable due to larger touchscreen real estate.
And the N800 default "thumb" keyboard is frickin' huge and quick to type on compared to the iPhone keyboard.
