As an owner of three corporate iPhones (and planning to buy a couple more for others in our office) I certainly think it is a great product. But, I also think it is a stretch to say it is the best.

There are still a number of things that it doesn't do. (I still have to carry around a Centro for a couple functions.)

Obviously "best" is in the eyes of the beholder here, and I just don't see it.

I think that iphones are pretty reliable. To say it's the best in America, maybe I would agree. But compared to the rest of the world, our phone capabilities aren't that advanced. Europe and Asia don't really rely on their computers, but more so on their phone because they do everything on there. Some of them can be used to pay in a vending machine and or other such tasks. The iphone is a great phone (I will be getting one), but who knows what else is out there.

I had to chuckle at some of the people's remarks, like the guy that said that he's on his fourth iPhone and all of them have been a LOT of trouble and fail constantly.

Kathlyn and I each have 3G iPhones and they have been flawless. Our 1st generation iPhones also were flawless. The only things we didn't like about the first generation was the email program and the dropped calls. I was used to Verizon with whom we never had any dropped calls. But AT&T is notorious for dropped calls whether you use an iPhone or anything else on their system.

With the four that we have owned, all have worked well. The two older ones we gave to our kids and they are still working just fine.

In the end, I don't care if Nokia, Motorola or Samsung makes the best phones in the world. All I care about is that the one I buy works well. Using that yardstick, I find that the iPhone has been an amazingly reliable phone.

Now the AT&T network, that is another story altogether.

Best regards,

Ron Lindeboom
