iPhone Observations
This is on an iPhone 3G 16GB running OS 3.1 and jailbroken
1) All apps are a bit sluggish to start. Maybe cleaning up unwanted language files will improve things
2) Not really liking safari. No data compression so higher data bills
3) No Opera Mini!
4) Turning off images in Safari (using ImaSafari) doesn't really stop the images from downloading (correct me if I'm wrong)
5) Interface rocks!
6) Sound from speaker is just too mild. They really need to have a better speaker in the next version
7) Good for developers or someone wanting to mess around with the internals (openSSH a must)
No Opera Mini (again)
9) Decent battery life under light usage. If you really make a lot of calls or browse extensively, look else where. But you can get a lot of juice if you listen to music a lot and use the phone sparingly
10) Great keypad for typing (the horizontal keypad suits me better cause of my bigger fingers).
11) Very good predective spelling correction. It really works
12) Breeze to install apps (even the cracked variety if you know how)
