iPhone the best phone ever! - Who agrees?

I find the iPhone the most irritating phone I've ever had.

It's capable of so much, yet Apple have blocked just about anything interesting on it, rendering the phone about as good as as my old k800i.

Granted - it has a smooth, super-stylish simplistic menu animation system, a top of the range internet browser, and the finest app store ever made.

However, there's no blutooth, a very poor camera, it's annoying having to go through iTunes and more or less, format the phone every time you want to transfer a file, the phone flips from portrait to landscape in the most annoying places, like when you try to use it in bed, the battery life is terrible, there is no flash, which renders a lot of internet sites useless (bad luck Disney.com), no way of changing the file names, theme, icons, menu colours etc, unless you perform an illegal act which Apple have compared to terrorism, the phone's very, very expensive...

The simple menu structure is both a strength and a weakness.

Strength - makes it easier to use, weakness in that navigating an iPhones menu if you have hundreds of apps installed will become a total nightmare.

The auto rotation tends to be "wrong" at times and a bit of a wind up.

Internet browser is good, although I've not found it any better than that on my N85.

And as for it having an 800mHz processor - technically the 3GS is rated at up to 800mHz, but its actually clocked at 600meg. The 2G/3G were rated at 600meg but actually run at 400meg.

My partner can't use my iTouch with her long fingernails, the lack of multitasking is irritating as f**k.

Bluetooth file transfer is incredibly useful for many things - sending pics/videos between phones at home and at work is handy.

I just wish that battery technology had kept up with everything else. I had a BB 7230 years back, and it was fantastic to have a device that could be kept on, receiving mails 24 hours a day, and last 7 days.
