i have the HTC pro and last week i bought a used iphone 3g,and sold it in 3 days!ya the touch screen is big and easy to use and doesnt recquire you to press it hard like the PRO,but the resolution for a screen of this size is just FOR ME a joke.the PRO has a resolution of 480x640 which is double that of the iphone and thus it has more pixel per inch.the iphone resolution becomes very annoying for me especially when watching movies and the dark colours become pixelted.the app store is cool but contains about 80% garbage apps,except the medical apps which were very useful but costs a very loafty price.and for me the browser is no better than the opera browser 9.5 or 9.6(turbo)which is blasting fast and better than safari.i prefer even opera mini because of its unbelievable speed in rendering pages.and what about that you cant sync your mail on wifi,why should you have a data plan,what rip off is that?any windows mobile phone can sync over wifi withe no cost at all!And thats not all.i upgraded to the latest software 3.0.1 AND WHAT A DAMN MISTAKE!its buggy,it slowed down the iphone and became even slower than the HTC PRO especially when you are writing on the keyboard and scrolling through contacts and safari.and why the heck do i need to get the official wall charger to charge it up!it wont charge on my htc charger simply because there is something in the iphone circuit that doesnt fully work except when connected to computer or official charger.and as a music player,i found it only average and my zune120 sounds alot better using the ie8 and jvc fx500.i sold it with the same price i bought it for because it doesnt deserve what i paid for.
my only advice to you is DONT UPGRADE TO VERSION 3.0.1 because i read somewhere that APPLE specifically made it slower than the others versions to make the 3GS be displayed as a much powerful and speedy device,all part of marketing process.
OH,I READ YOUR LAST POST,good move that you got the 2G but if your father want a phone dont recommend him the iphone3g because apart from what i said its so buggy and slow,and this is not a hardware problem its a software problem because before i upgraded to OS 3.0.1 it was working normally and much faster than 3.0.1 i am going to get the Blackberry 8900 because it is for me much better than the iphone and the keyboard is really useful in composing messages and chatting which i use alot on my HTC PRO.if your father want a stable great straight forward device and wont use useless apps then a Blackberry(ANY VERSION,BOLD,CURVE,TOUR..)is a no brainer.
