iPhone

I agree, Iphone - or a Nokia (n95/N96/N97)

I have had a go of all of them but I really don't like the iphone (the Nokia's listed above do much more)

I was so glad i had my Nokia N95 when i went into labour and was able to post and upload piccies of Alex etc.

I have just bought the N97, which is great, and has a keyboard too.

Nokia N95

Nokia N97

I am a total geek when it comes to phones!

ooh ooh girls - that's been my debate - between the iphone and the N97 !!!

I've heard that text input + alteration in the i-phone is a bit tricky
but I've also heard that the N97 is full of bugs and that's why Orange don't sell it.

but then the i-phone comes with LogMeIn and bbc i-player apps
but I really like the n97 keyboard
does the n97 have a stylus too?
is it fast enough online? will google streetmap work ok?

and of course... the most important thing... BnB - which is faster, easier to read etc...?

OH has the N97, it is full of little glitches, but as with most phones they have updates online so hopefully Nokia will be sorting these out soon

Thanks girls - I really appreciate you posting.

Rafwife - BabyHaines - Whats it like typing in bnb on the i-phone?
is it easy or clunky?

I'm still leaning towards the N97 - candeur - are the glitches really annoying - hows he finding it?

The iphone is brilliant, im not a fan of nokias I hated the N95. Typing is fine, it is easier if you turn the phone on its side and use it that way. I did have a Samsung Tocco touch screen that was pants for typing, the iphone is great in comparison. Fantastic phone all round, online is just as quick as a comp. It does need charging every night if you use the internet alot, but as of yet it hasnt ran out one me!
