"Entirely delightful"
What I like:
The wide range of apps, the multimedia functions, the way videos look, very simple but the 3.5mm headphone jack
What I don't like:
no real multitasking functions, no expandable memory, average camera and no video recording functions
Review:
This is a great handset, however the iphone's interface has become a bit dull compared to something like the htc hero or palm pre, and it has the same problem on the 3gs, everyone has seen the iphone ui and there has been no real change in ui from the first gen. As for the actual 3g, it is brilliant, you never get bored because all you need to do is find an interesting app, so you don't really get the problem of finding the handset dull after a year and wishing for your contract to end. However there are a few features which even the 3gs hasn't improved which is why I haven't given it a better mark.

BlackBerry Storm 2
Clicking touchscreen may be useful for clumsy people, but ditching the Qwerty keyboard has its drawbacks
INQ Mini 3G
Sluggish at times, and not the easiest phone to use, but it offers a great range of features at a low price
BlackBerry Bold 9700
Has everything that makes the BlackBerry format great, but other smart phones offer more innovation
