It's already been shown that owning an iPhone will cost someone around $2000 over a two-year period. That's the price of the iPhone and the CHEAPEST two year contract from AT&T. Pay-as-You-Go defeats the purpose of the iPhone's "always connected" data structure and can cost MORE over the same two year period.
And my Nokia N95 stomps the iPhone when it comes to features and STILL costs me less over the same two year period!

My N800 cost me EXACTLY a one-time payment of $399. That's all. Nothing more.

Gee, I'm running the latest micro-b browser build and when using the Opera engine and browsing Ars Technica full-screen with NO SCROLL BARS I find I have to very little - if any - horizontal browsing. Same goes for Engadget, The Register, etc. The worst site I've found when browsing is Gizmodo but that's the site's fault due to horrible coding on Gizmodo's part.
But I guess you're going to whinge about the "out-of-the-box" experience on a product that's more than a year old?
Even the iPhone's had software updates already and it came out in June.
