Final Decision

I have had this iPhone for two days so far and I am quite impressed by
its technical abilities. On the other hand I do find myself hesitating
to give up on the Nokia E90 and N95, so I have decided to keep all
three phones for now.

One feature I am thoroughly enjoying is the Notes application.
Compared to the full qwerty of the E90 there is some time for
adjustment to the loss of tactile feeling, but security is possible
with the built-in dictionary. At times I find myself speeding happily
through the letters and other times I end up pecking and picking and
tapping with caution. Overall in a nutshell the typing experience is
definitely eye-opening.

Last night I played around with my Nokia N95 and was reminded of just
how versatile it is compared to the iPhone. I hooked up the handset to
my widescreen TV as a monitor and used a wireless keyboard to type an
email and watch movies and play video games. I even accepted a call
from a friend and spoke to him via the television speakers as I
continued typing! Even though this was the greatest form of
versatility there is still a charm about the iPhone that draws me.

There is a slight sense of boredom that sets in after playing with the
few applications and their neat functions. The truth remains that this
device is a simple feature phone compared to the Nokias, but it stands
out with a gorgeous interface and unforgettable user experience. With
any other handset I was always excited about the features and not the
usual system functions, for it would always perform like any other
model out on the market. But the iPhone has shattered every
preconceived notion concerning mobile gadgets...so much so that I
actually get excited to check emails or send text messages or check
visual voicemail (I know I sound silly at this point if I didn't
already). For what the iPhone lacks in features it compensates in its
artistic delivery of the usual mobile functions in a small, slim
design. To the rationale of a normal human being this may not be
reason enough to keep the iPhone, but it's a different story when
you're holding it in your hand.
