The main reason for wanting it is is for the apps (applications?) that you can download. My twitter, to do lists, facebook, diary, organiser, blog and 100 and 1 other things I do online are handled really really easily from the iphone. Much more so than any other mobile device. So it is basically that or an itouch. Blackberry and Nokia just don't seem to have the same software back up or people making these addons that would make my life easier. So there is logic besides I want one. Although I do. Were it not for the logic though I would accept that I would be better off with a blackberry or an N97.

I have a mobile phone so that I can speak to people
I have a camera so that I can take pictures
I have a diary so that I can write in any appointments
I have a PC so that I can access the internet
I neither want nor need anything else
I know I am old fashioned but I also know I am old.

Note I don't want it for the camera!  lol:

It's basically because so much of my life exists online now. It would just be easier.

Not necessarily, I interact with my real life friends online too. Trouble is most of us are all over the place and fairly busy so this is the way we all keep up with each other now. Admitedly though probably 70% of my online time is spent catching up with online people or self promotion of one kind or another.

Twitter, facebook, myspace, diary, organiser, blogging and countless other applications are available for the Nokia N series. Plus the N97 will have both a touch screen and a full keyboard, something that the iphone is lacking.

Where can I find the applications for the N series? Just in case my research hasn't been as full as it might have been.  whistle:

Not only does he use one he says he will, contrary to all the rules about every Presidential utterance having to be recorded, continue to use it whilst he is in office. There is apparently some "Tut-Tutting" in the US about this but it is fairly muted so I suspect that the b@stards will be "listening into" him anyway.

Interesting good or interesting bad. I was considering one of those are a replacement for my PDA. At the moment its a toss up between one of those or an XDA EXEC.
