Der Hype ist groß, T-Mobile scheint sich um nichts anderes mehr zu kümmern. Die Werbung ist voll davon… Doch nicht jeder will das iPhone. Neben dem abtörnenden Preis gibt es noch mehr gute Gründe, warum man nicht immer alles mitmachen muss.

Die folgende Liste hat chromewalker in seinem Blog veröffentlicht.

Aus diesen Gründen bleibt er bei einem Nokia E61i:

1. GizmoProject & Truphone calls to my parents (long distance) over WiFi (without having to lug my computer around).
2. GPS enabled maps via Nokia Maps, tom tom, or Google Maps + my trusty, and locally stored AZ Maps
3. QR code reader (Kaywa)
4. Video recording capabilities don’t exist on the iPhone
5. 3G data connectivity (none for the iPhone here in Europe)
6. Ability to connect my laptop to 3G via the phone’s Bluetooth connection
7. A full physical qwerty keyboard that is more reliable than a touchscreen one
8. A more powerful email application (profimail)
9. My installed english-german dictionary (for when I travel), no need to access the web to look for a word
10. The ability to SSH into my server via Putty for Symbian without having to jailbreak the phone and invalidate the warranty.
11. T-Mobile’s cheaper and faster unlimited data (vs AT&T in the USA or O2 in the UK)
12. Video calling doesn’t exist on the iPhone
13. The ability to swap batteries if I need to; can’t do that with the iPhone
14. I’d lose Infra Red
15. I need a more rugged device that can stand multiple drops, not the iPhone
16. I’d lose the ability to synchronize the phone via bluetooth
17. I’d lose the ability to read the phone’s memory via bluetooth
18. Multiple people text sending isn’t supported on the iPhone
19. Copy and Paste text isn’t possible on the iPhone
20. No MMS on the iPhone!!!
21. Although not a technical reason, I’d have to pay a termination charge to my current carrier to pay out my contract before switching…

Vielleicht findet sich ja der ein- oder andere wieder.
