I noticed texting on the iPhone is the only category that didn't "Wow" the test subjects.

If you want EV-DO, you need to be on Verizon or Sprint's network. Next version of the iPhone should sport AT&T's HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) which is on par with EV-DO; adding such feature shouldn't be a problem. Whereas, creating a superior screen resolution with advance sensors such as the accelerometer, a proximity sensor and an ambient light sensor will be a challenge for other phone manufacturers. The iPhone's web browser will be the first of its kind to allow rendering full page. Show me one phone on the market with the feature. I admit that I'll miss EV-DO on my Treo 755p via Sprint. But the trade off is worth it, and that being said I'll have access to a wifi network so this shouldn't be an issue - yet.

I’ll pay attention to the surveys when there are real consumers who pay real money for the iPhone and commit to a two-year contract. Perhaps it is truly a great device (like the iPod). But watching marketing videos is not the same thing as making phone calls and browing the Web from the airport. But how can Web browsing possibly be a superior experience on a system that’s not running EV-DO Rev. A data speeds? Short answer: it can’t be.

This study was based on the subject’s perception of what their experience of the iPhone would be over their own handset and others on the market based on the videos they viewed regarding the features of the iPhone.

When I first saw the iPhone demo by Steve Jobs at Macworld, I immediately did the samething; I compared what I was seeing to the existing handsets I’ve reviewed. Hell yes, I rank the iPhone experience much higher and the “Wow” factor was definitely.

How high does this survey register on the Ridiculometer? How can anybody claim to have any “experience” on the iPhone when the bloody thing isn’t even available? Tell me, please, why anybody who responded to the survey is not a moron.

It’s not just about taking photos Phoenix, but manipulating and sharing the photos. One cool feature is “pinching” or spreading an image while viewing it to zoom in and out.

If you’re referring to the 3 and 5-megapixel cameras; the N95 is the only one on the market with a 5MP while the N93 and a few other Nokia handset sports the 3MP. Everything else is still 1.3 or 2MP. Can you name another phone available in the US with higher than 2MP camera?

How the hell should making photos on the iphone be better with its 2mp cam compared to the 3 or 5mp cams now in the market?
