I prefer the T-Mobile G1 ("Google phone"), personally. It doesn't mingle with Exchange that well, but works very well if you use Google Mail/Calendar/etc. Nicer to use than the iPhone and more flexible regarding applications/etc.

I guess a lot has changed in the last year, but I thought I would use this as my inspiration for my most recent blog post. I do wonder what you think now that a year has passed.

I've been using SMEScheduler to handle the issue of meetings with the Iphone - www.TheSMESpace.com/SMESchedul... - it does a good job of solving the meeting problem with the Iphone you describe above I think, and the whole app is IPhone ready.

Any chance Phanfare can do a non-flash version of the slideshows? I'd love to be able to run a Phanfare slideshow directly from the iPhone. Currently you have to struggle to hit the tiny next button to manually navigate thru the images (because Apple won't license Flash for the iPhone).

"Overall, the iPhone is an intensely lickable device.."

I can't say that I've had the urge to lick an Iphone ;-) Did give me a chuckle though - thanks!

(I suppose you meant "likeable")

While not autosync, you can use the iPhone to email pics to your mobile Phanfare album.

The caveat to this is by default the iPhone email app autosizes the photo to 640x480 minimizing your 2 Megapixel iPhone camera.

As of today, there is a native 3rd party application called sendpics which will email the full resolution iPhone photo. I've just tested this and it worked great to upload to my mobile phanfare.

Does anyone know why the iphone randomly arranges the order of pictures when synch'd from an Aperture album. The pictures are carefully arranged in the source album and then appear in my iPhone picture gallery in random order-not by date taken, not alpha by picture label just completely random. Any thoughts on how to properly order the pictures?

Andrew,
Thanks for posting this review. I am like you, except substitute Blackberry for Sidekick and pity me for being stuck on T-Mobile's network. I've had a sidekick since 2002. The multi-tasking ability of the device is excellent and I use it more than my laptop at home for email and chatting and basic web surfing. The killer app for me is definitely instant messaging. It helps that I'm hearing impaired and don't use the phone much, but I think I would be using IM constantly even if I wasn't hearing impaired.

This does bring up a lot of things that Apple/ATT need to address to help the niche market of deaf and hard of hearing users... They need to include IM in their data package - not just use SMS. It is not the same! A service plan that is data only - or includes only a few voice minutes for a cheaper rate. With the Sidekick I can do data only for $30 a month. And last, the video on the iPhone would be useless for me without captioning... unless it's a foreign film. But this needs to be fixed in iTunes videos on a computer too!

Thank you for the excellent review and comparison. Have you ever used a Windows Mobile device? I'd love to read a similar article comparing the Blackberry with Windows Mobile.
