Iphone vs other smartphones
I've got an upgrade/end of contract nearing and I'm a-thinking!
I've currently got an HTC Touch - reasonable phone, but a couple of bugs and a little on the slow side, and my previous two phones were from the 02 XDA range (also by HTC).
I'm after something that does browsing/email well and is 3g, preferably the 7.2mbit variety as I spend a fair bit of time in airports! But there's a few more points!
- Tethering would be nice (i.e. the ability to plug one's phone into one's laptop and steal the data connection for a more full web experience - not essential if the phone's browser is up to scratch and files are easily transferred to laptop)
- Bluetooth A2DP would be nice, have a couple of sets of bluetooth speakers kicking around (car and house) and it's v useful to be able to zap music to them (willing to consider an adaptor/dongle though!)
Anyhow, my leanings are either an Iphone 3g (but suspect the apparent lack of tethering and lack of a2dp would annoy!) or an HTC Touch HD. I've also heard tell of a couple of other WinMo based phones recently released that might be worth a look (I'm happy with the winMo experience, for all the bad press it gets, although having used an ipod touch for a while, I must say the Ipod/phone range certainly is a lot slicker!)
Thoughts?
