Re: Iphone

It has pros and cons.

You can't store pdfs for reading - something i do a great deal of on my WM phone. You can't add applications unless you jailbreak it. I've yet to see an application worth jailbreaking the phone to load.

And the Edge network is painfully slow.

I find I use it differently than my WM phone.

On WM I read techinical papers, go online, use the gps.

On the iPhone I'm listening to audio books, there are lots of free audio books and podcasts out there. Some times I watch Google Tech talks. And I use Google Reader a great deal on it.

Both phones are good for note taking, but you can't back up your iPhone notes. Both are good at pictures and neither has MMS, though I hear Sprint is working on MMS for WM phones.

I'd wait for the next iPhone - rumored to be coming soon.
