I don't own an iPhone, but there's some serious issues which the UI can't really overcome for me. I heard somewhere that the iPhone doesn't have the following features:<br><br>1. No tethered modem native support - I use my phone a lot as an alternative 3g modem<br>2. Lack of bluetooth sync - I constantly sync. Having to do this via cable would irritate me.<br>3. Lack of video on camera. Is this right?<br>4. No SD card support. I know 8gb sounds like a lot, but moving and sharing media across devices is a lot easier when I can swap memory around easily.<br>5. No support for A2DP profiles... so no bluetooth headset, headphones, hi-fi or car integration... Just came across this post.
