Review:
I received this phone free as an upgrade. Not a phone I would have chosen, but I love it. It's so easy to set & use. I love the feel of it and the QWERTY keyboard takes some getting used to but it's easy once you get into it. The only things I can't do are save pics sent in an MMS to my phone or forward a text. I have looked at the (202page) user guide but can't find anything that relates to these. On the whole, a really good phone and if you normally use your WAP on your mobile a lot, like me, you'll love the easy Google search and the quick response once you enter a search item or go to one of your bookmarks.
Not sure how it compares to the iphone as I've never considered one of those, but all I can say is that if you get the opportunity to get a G1 - then get it.

Clicking touchscreen may be useful for clumsy people, but ditching the Qwerty keyboard has its drawbacks

Sluggish at times, and not the easiest phone to use, but it offers a great range of features at a low price
