Android 2.1 anyone? with iPhone, you'll need to buy a new phone for it wouldn't you?

highly unlikely, i mean if we look at the progression of apples operating system, they are still supporting Powerpc based computers, so it would seem very unlikely that 0s 4.0 wont be available for current users. It will definitely be available for 3Gs users, because of the ARM processor, im not too sure about the 3G/2G

My dad has this phone, it was like $700! why would you pay that much for a phone? it does everything a blackberry or an iPhone does...

It's the Dubai-obsession I think... everyone there wants to be different and gets new phones every 3 weeks lol

The N97 is $700? That's way too expensive for a Nokia phone! Correct me if I read that wrong. I've seen it being sold at way cheaper prices.

Well I know there are pricier phones.....heard of the company called Vertu? Their phones cost $1000+ if I remember correctly O_o

only symbian nokias are worth buying if you want more functionality
