Such as what configurability? Besides the hardware keyboard and rather unused IR port... they both don't support USB OTG, they both have a 5mp back camera - iPhone is lacking a cover - both have a flash for that back camera, both have a forward facing camera.
Of course, I would tend to call that angle "hackability" or "openness" -- "configurability" probably referred to something totally different.
Oh, and processor-wise -- everyone knows an A4 SoC has a Cortex A8 core, same as ours. (And running the same 1GHz clock speed as some of ours.
) But if you want to compare numbers, you gotta compare SoC vs. SoC, so it's 0xA4 vs 3430 -- we're 20.9x as good!

I saw the USB OTG "hack" and was impressed and we all know that Apple would never allow that directly. Not unless down the line they can charge you for an accessory and get even more money from you.
If that USB OTG dongle comes out for the iPhone 4, I want my cut Steve!

I thought that there was limited USB OTG for iPad, like using that ******ed camera connector. I have seen like a hard drive plugged into it and working, and i thought someone made a camera for the iPad or something like that... Its not real OTG but like if you have a bluetooth keyboard the only reason for OTG really is hard drives... or hacking stuff...

true the Evo has wimax, still it has a new technology different from 3g.
About video chat: n900 has gtalk and skype video chat no matter netwrok. Iphone 4 only has video chat with itself and over wifi. in my opinion except for the screen.

And you've got multiple personalities. I responded to your points in a different thread. Instead of bringing straw man arguments and being completely oblivious of how things actually are, perhaps you should make yourself familiar with what is actually happening in the field.
Or are you just doing to computing what you claim others do with medicine?
