Good: 3G, GPS stlye and funcionality
Bad: Wont sync calander- wont work with my current chrger/fm transmitter that did work with my ipod.
Comment: Having first decieded against an original iphone I'm glad I waited the couple of months for the 3g version to arrive. Im very impressed with it overall, it feels solid but light wieght, the sound quality is great and I particlary like the web browser and speed at which the i phone loads web pages. Its certianally the coolest gadget I own!
The two megapixle camera is a small let down but then I dont generally use the phone to take pictures that would require great resolution. (I have a digital slr for that!) and the gps navigation wont ever replace my tom tom , but for use around town when walking its great. Ive had the phone less than 24 hours and most of that was spent trying to get it to sync with my outlook calender. It syncs fine with contacts but refuses to sync with the calender. Ive since discovered that it is only compatible with outlook 2003, 2007 and microsoft exchange. I currently use office (outlook) 2002, so Ill have to upgrade my microsoft office in the near future. (had I actually read the instructions I would have saved hours messing about trying t sync it with the calander.)
The lack of a user manual in the box was frustrating but the online manuals are downloadable as a .pdf so this was only a minor irritation. They are also quite clear and dont use too much nerd speak.
Is it a phone or an mp3 player? Well for me its one multi-purpose gadget that actually does both its main jobs rather well. Ive yet to discover if notes on the iphone and outlook are able to sync, that will have to wait till I upgrade my microsoft office. Im also anoyed that I will have to buy another fm transmitter/charger for use in the car and that there is no bluetooth to wirelessly conect to headphones. But overall a great bit of kit.

Good: Internet on the go!
Bad: The phone has a few bugs that prevents it from getting the perfect 10.
Comment: The iPhone is the best user experience for a mobile internet and browsing device that I have ever used. The interconnectivity with Mobile Me is excellent for keeping all my contacts, calender and mail all up to date on my phone, the internet and my mac.
All in all it is a slick bit of kit and everything I hoped for when the product was announced. I would like to see a global copy and paste for the phone to make it even better.
