Most likely I'll skip the iPhone then with these pricing. I use the following phones for now: 1) Business -> Nokia E90 Communicator. It's big, but got full QWERTY keyboard, large screen and GPS 2) Business -> Nokia E51. Very slim for all the features that I wanted. Missing GPS, otherwise a perfect phone for this size 3) Personal -> Nokia N95 8GB. Can do everything including photos and video with direct upload to flickr or Vox. Very convenient, Too bad, the picture quality is bad compared to DSLR :-). I like this phone as it has GPS, can take photo and upload it to flickr with ShareOnline. Next phone in my list is Nokia N98 (16GB Built-in plus external memory card now top at 8GB, soon 12GB from SanDisk).... Bigger screen and in Singapore can watch DVB TV e.g. TV Mobile. Nokia E71 good too (like blackberry) and is already sold in market. Not promoting any phones, just sharing my plan. Edited by ongl, Aug 19 2008, 01:41 PM.

My plan times up for renewal ... but after comparing specs between Omnia and iPhone ... looks like Omnia is way ahead in terms of specs like camera mpixel, video phone functions, stereo bluetooth! Dunno about Xperia though ... but looks impressive too! Edited by simon, Aug 20 2008, 09:49 PM.
