I don't like this attitude. ya, he obviously picked those ugliest smartphones to compares... anyway, like they say, pride comes before a fall! i really feel sorry for those iphone team's family members... i think the iphone's display will scratch like no one's business, i also don't like that you cant operate a phone with one hand, and the bright colorful buttons are so ugly compares to the more classy one found in LG KE850, i don't understand why steve jobs was so excited and amazed over the Google Map part, I've been using that on my Nseries since donkey months ago and i have to wait till 2008!

Oh, I can't wait until most of the internet (news pages, forums etc.) comes out of the hype-madness and see that the iPhone is a nice, expensive, but not really groundbreaking device (at least not in the technical sense, let's see if and how it changes the way web-capable phone are perceived) Don’t we love being restricted ;)
