Surely one of the most promising features of the iPhone is that it is running OS X, which will trounce competition from the likes of Symbian and Windows Mobile and makes issues with existing Apple software like Safari less significant, as there is a world of Open Source software out there. 4GB - 8GB is a bit limited for storage though, considering photos, music, videos, additional software.

We ran the UK Vodafone Edge trail here in Southampton and it seemed more robust than 3G yet they haven't done anything with it from what I've read.
