Can anyone with both the n800 and iphone do a comprehensive review?
I mean what each can do better than tthe other and ultimately......if you had to leave one .....which one would you chose.
now cut that crapp about they being different and incomparable !!!
Consider an i phone.....vs the n800 with a phone.

THAnks

Um...they're...not the same type of device...so...this is a cut and dried case of apples to oranges.

Kthxbye.

get a regular phone with the n800. iphone ain't all that. watch how easily the screen breaks. http://revision3.com/systm/cracked

Yeah, Apples and Nokias...

Correct. Apple to oranges. One is a pure multi-media device and sold as such while the other is branded an Internet device, so a comparison would be useless. It comes down to taste. If you like the N800 buy it, if you like the iPhone buy that one as well. There are plenty of comparisons and specifications regarding both devices.

And N800 screens don't crack. Right. Repair cost for a broken screen in Finland is about $120. Guess why they have prices for them.

As for not being all that, I guess the 525K of them sold in 2 and a half days count for nothing.

Let's compare N800 units sold verses iPhones sold. Personally I like the IT concept but the N800 just ain't there yet. Maybe with the Nx00 or whatever else comes something magical will happen. Until then, if it only costs a few hundred more to get more in the way of an iPhone MOST people don't mind spending the extra cash.

Products that sell in the first number of days are sold on complete hype and promises. Its after the initial month that the prosyct sells itself. The iphone had one shitton of hype and marketing scheme behind it. How many n800 commercials did you see?

BaBack to the OP : why not buy'em both and tether the nokia to the iphone?
But really i'd pick the n800 over the iphone because it doesn't have to be a phone. It does everything the iphone does and more. It just isn't as pretty and the UI isn't really for the mobile industry . All mt friemds that have any kind of tech. B/g that i've shown my n800off to agree it is better than the iphone annd has a shitton of potential to become one of the best handhelds of 2007

I would say yes and no. Some people are simply loyal to the brand. There are many here that no matter how many failing the N800 has, they will remain loyal to it and Nokia. Nothing wrong with that. The same can be said of Apple as well. I bought my N800 after just seeing a guy use it in a shop. No hype, no advertising other than him playing with it and it looked cool. However, after some issues I got rid of it because it just did not stack up. The iPhone, on the other hand is a more mass market consumer product while the N800 isn't, however it could be with a bit of help. I am sure Nokia will look at the iPhone, and the N800 and something pretty cool should be in the works. Finns are pretty smart people.

iPhones can't be tethered, I hear.

More reason not to buy one.
