I own one, and I love it
Ok, I have wrote a review on buying used IPhones from Ebay " http://catalog.ebay.com/Apple-iPhone-3G-8-GB-Black-AT-T-/71354345/r.html?_fcls=1 " and now, I'm here to give you my opinion regarding IPhone 3Gs 32GB WHITE, I have been an owner for this phone for almost 3 months, and I'm taking a very good care of it as it's like my own baby, but, as any cell phone, each has it's cons and pros, so, let me start with the advantages as all of other people do :) PS: This is only my PERSONAL point of view. 1. LCD: Clear, big (but not the biggest), very sensitive and double touch :) (gestures) 2. BIG Memory Yup, I love having big memory for movies and games. 3. Very funny applications Despite I'm working in software industry, but, this cell phone (as I must say and repeat it again and again) rocks by it's software, you can install hundreds of software and the phone will never come slow (unless you messed up :) ) 4. Easy to use, if you are a Nokia (or other brand) user, you will take some time to get to use to it, and when you do, you will never will return to Nokia again :). (PS: I have used plenty of brands with different types of Cell phones Operating systems). 5. Cool Camera :), I like it even from the 3G model but, with the 3Gs, you can record VIDEO :) wow. If all the previous features are great so, What's is not COOL then, actually, I have some :), 1. Many functions are missing, for example, you can't send files through bluetooth, Even there are some software that tries to solve this issue, but, still NO NATIVE Support, if you have international numbers starts with 00 not (+), the Iphone won't give you the caller's name, and so on. 2. Apple domination, I mean, if you want to install some software that doesn't exists on Apple Stores, basically, you can't, you will need to JAILBREAK it to install it, I don't know why Apple do that, even if it is not legal software the reliability goes on the user, that's doesn't mean I install illegal software, I actually try the "lite" versions and if I like it, I buy it. 3. ITunes still not very professional when comes to IPhone, there are some good software (free) that gives uses a very good control over their IPhones like "IPhone PC Suite". 4. Unlocked version, is so expensive, when compared to other High end devices. After all, I can't give this device less than 4 stars actually, I wanted it 5 :) but, I can't All the best.

Google Nexus One (HTC)
I didn’t believe that one day I’ll love a mobile more that I did to IPhone, yeah, Android is a new and very powerful Mobile device operating system, and Google succeeded in introducing it’s new OS among of the major giants such as (Apple, Microsoft, BlackBerry and others), the phone with its 1Ghz Processor and AMOLED screen makes mobile more fun and amusing, and the integration with the web and Google’s Apps make it the best combination you would ever have. Having N1 was like a brand new era, I had to search for everything starting from how to change the ringtone to how to install my custom ROMs (of course, I lost my warranty) but, it’s an adventure and I love to do it since my previous PDAs (HTC HD, Omnia, i-mate), N1 has a plenty of features that you can find everywhere on the internet, but, I’ll try to just make a balance of its Good and Bad as I know that many of people will read my review online. First of all, I’ll talk about the Good, 1. You are free with your phone , YES you are, install themes, customizations as many as you want, you don’t have to jailbreak and wonder if with the next release whether you will be able to update or not. 2. Less expensive and sold officially unlocked. 3. Great Processor and very stable OS (solid performance). 4. Great Screen but, not very sensitive like IPhone, but, trust me, it’s better and touch sensitive isn’t a big issue, as it makes the screen more delicate. 5. Track ball with its warning lights / effects, wow I love it so much. 6. Support, Available Software and Customization are a plus to Android world. 7. Integration with Google Apps, makes it a very easy to get your contacts or calendar from anywhere in the world, not just from a mobile, considering that Google a very strong company in the world of information. 8. The Widgets and multi-desktop is a great feature, I really miss it since my Windows Mobile days (SPB Shell) 9. I love the Search button that’s makes it easy to access the search feature and the integrated text to voice feature. 10. From a development prospective: it’s easy to write software for it through Google APIs, so, it’s very promising market. 11. And the best of all the “Ease of Use” which makes using this Phone is a pleasant experience. The Bad are here (nothing is perfect through) 1. Lower ringtones (not a very big issue), I believe this could be solved in many ways. 2. Google’s Market isn’t available for many countries (there is a solution). 3. Doesn’t have Arabic support (Third party solution exists(reliable 100%)) 4. Virtual Keys, I find it hard to use it, but, after a day or two of usage, it would be easy. 5. By default, Applications are installed on the Internal memory ( a working solution exits as well) 6. Outlook Syncing is not available by default, even there are some software that you can buy, but, still for some users it would make an issue(Not for me for sure ) 7. You can’t dial using your handfree Bluetooth, but, it would be available in the next OS releases. 8. If you are using the internet (3G) for 3 hours you will need to recharge the battery, I guess, the 1Ghz is consuming the battery in addition to the AMOLED screen as well. I can’t tell you to buy this Phone or not, but, it deserves to be titled as the best cell phone in CNET (http://cnettv.cnet.com/prizefight-htc-hd2-vs-nexus-one/9742-1_53-50085314.html) I’m willing to write more detailed review on my blog (http://www.microsoftawy.com) a long with my personal comparison between IPhone and N1.
