I have an N95 and don't really see the iPhone as a competitor as there are too many features missing: - 3g, especially HSDPA, I'm getting download speeds close to my home ADSL and I wouldn't want to go back. - Lousy camera, I have a DSLR but it's nice to always have a 5mp snapshot camera with me a

I agree completely. Go to the Apple store and take a look. My wife saw the iPhone commercial on TV for ten seconds and said, "I want that!" She had not seen anything about it until that moment. I think she wants to go down there and see it tomorrow. On 6/29/07, Dave l <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >
