With all due respect - iPhone's great and all, but after the novelty and hype wears off - i think they may have some spare stock.
There are a HEAP of free widgets already out there which go above and beyond the sexiness AND functionality of the iphone.
I mean - i just decked out my HTC Touch with Slide2Unlock & iPhone Contacts (just google these), so that gets the nice slide effects and transitions out of the way.
Next, i came across a beta program at yoober (http://www.yoober.com), and now have a sexy messaging interface, that lets me send free text messages as well! (mind you, not to many people as i could only invite 10 at this stage)
But the point is many of these "Mobile 2.0" apps are based on JAVA, so why in the world did Apple not include Java into the iPhone - If personalisation is the flavour of the day, then i think Apple may have shot itself in the foot!

It looks as if Yoober only works if the other person is also on a data plan on connected to the internet. =/

Yoober sounds more like mobile AIM, except with fewer people signed up (and therefore, on) to message. I like that, with SMS, I can bug someone whenever that person's cell phone is on, not just when they are "online."

We'll see...the Nokia N95 costs $750 & you have to add apps to it to get a somewhat faux iPhone user experience?
It cost $250 bucks more than the low end iPhone & $150 more than the 8 gig iPhone. No storage to speak of really.
You can add more memory but that also means more money added on to what is already a $750 phone.
