Still in love with the iPhone

[From Brandon] I was a Windows Mobile user for years, and one of the best devices I ever owned was the Treo 750. Chances are I would still own it if the 750 had shipped with WiFi, but that's another story.

I bought my iPhone the day of the infamous "price drop". The initial price was really high, but I was determined to get one once I had the cash. Apple dropped the price to within a few dollars of what I had saved up and there was no stopping me. Since that time there hasn't been a single day where my iPhone hasn't been my companion. I went back to Windows Mobile for almost a full day when I put the Invisible Shield on my iPhone a week or so ago and it was a hard lesson learned... I'll not be going back to Windows Mobile anytime soon. The whole OS just seemed slow, using a stylus was torturous and without a capable browser like Safari I was lost. Not to mention the 3 soft resets I had to do in that single day.

Anyway, I love my iPhone and despite some short comings its still by far the best device I've owned. Safari is un-rivaled for browsing the web (especially over WiFi), Google Maps has saved me from getting lost and untold number of times, the mail app has yet to fail me (or be unable to display a received email and I have a constant source of entertainment via music and movies.
