n810 vs iPhone: An odd battle as it was really n810 +n95 vs iPhone. Already you can see where the results are heading.  The n810 is a beautiful device, possibly the nicest design I’ve seen from nokia - with its sleek blue metal and tiny tactile sliding format.  But it’s a right dog, sure you can install apps with ease - but they are largly terrible and buggy homewarez.  The GPS lacks A-GPS so is terrible (note its now available via nokia beta labs).  The media players while they work, are a labour to get them to, and resuming a movie can be a chore.  One other mental note, mini sd and micro usb - someone got that the wrong way round.  As a back up email device its great, the internet experience is ok, not amazing but passable. But the main thing is it all feels very hobbyist and beta.  Plus its a really uncomfortable unit to use on the move, always requiring two hands and a stylus.  I wont go into the iPhone, you all know its pluses and minuses.  Needless to say I am now minus both devices thanks to ebay! and left with just an N95. But I would buy another iPhone, I wouldn’t buy another internet tablet.
