S60 is so much more feature packed when it comes to the practicall stuff like bluetooth mms,using your phone as a modem,a worthy camera,and in the case of the E90,a nice big screen and qwerty to write nice long emails and a great browsing experience especially when you get a font that that is small and redable,its just fantastic as a phone phone.Does the jobs you need without the bells and whistles.As youve noticed my post are much longer and more frequent.Browsing on an iPhone in the beginning is all very exciting but after a while it just becomes a slog and it just never feels right.The font,the size of the font ect Just all seems very unbalanced.The iPhone on the other hand blows everything else out the water when it comes to social networking,multimedia and entertainment.If you havent played around on a jailbroken unit its pretty hard to explain.Twitterific and Facebook are in a leaque of their own inAppleland.The iPhone as your only mobile device just does your head in after a while.There is just so so so much happening daily that you just cant keep up.Also the file sizes of the apps are growing to such an extent that it get quite ridiculous.Games like Need for Speed and Resident Evil are a good 170MB download.Just saw an app called American Idol that is a whopping 499MB's.Wow. Other than that I think I have a good combination to bounce off each other.
@GUCCi Got the latest Core Player.Tried to run Powermp3 on my E90 and it just wont kick in.Think I'll try to contact the creators and ask them if theres going to be a E90 compatible version

A screenshot of why the E90 is so fantastic when it come to texting when you get a good sized font that makes good use of the screen real estate.
My previous post.
Something I couldnt do on the iPhone because of having to finger swipe up down left and right all the time.
Breath of fresh air.

Wow; no scrolling needed due to that dominating screen size must be a joy.

Great stuff Hintza

something i couldnt stand on the iPhone is the on screen keyboard, it made me realise how much i type without having to stare at the keypad or screen, like im doing now while watching tv or something, plus i still prefer a multi tap keypad

yep im old school. Hope PowerMP3's developers can sort it out for E90, they have released 2 to 3 updates of that app in the last few weeks so im sure soon it will be available for E90.

Ya boet, I've been following the IPL pretty closely.
Don't have a firm fave though; Bangalore Royal Challengers have the naffest name but feature the most Saffers, Rajasthan Royals (with a somwhat inconsistent Graeme Smith) are a joy to watch under the influential captaincy of Shane Warne, Kings XI Punjab have fokol SA players in, Mumbai Indians have Duminy together with legends like Tendulkar and Jayasuriya, deVilliers has certainly been doing his bit for the Delhi Daredevils and I miss Gibbs playing for the Deccan Chargers. As for the Kolkata Knight Riders, well I smaak their uniform but eish they're sukkeling somewhat, particularly now that Chris Gayle has returned to the Windies fold. Which leaves Chennai Super Kings. Well that burly Oz bully opening batsman, Matthew Hayden, has been pummeling the other teams' bowlers and has certainly deserved that dodgy orange cap for the leading run scorer, and Albie Morkel has been doing well for them with the ball as well.
Lots of dynamics in there, which makes it that more enjoyable to watch.

I haven't been following the cricket, hardly watch tv. Infact I just found this out today on a tv ad: VW's Golf series makes a hit again, apparently the golf 6 is the world's car of the year for 2009

...and in slightly unrelated news, I saw the VW Scirocco the other day, looks hot... No pics though
