It doesn’t help that I have a growing impatience with the Windows OS; there are many Windows Mobile-based phones out there that are considerably cheaper than the iPhone.

I’m swinging towards getting a Palm for the simple reason of cost. SO unsexy, though.

3G iphone expected in werope by autumn. and possibly the us this summer!
