Apple today announced the long awaited iPhone, a device that I predicted about years 1.5 ago that it would happen (I won't forget how a fellow editor from a Mac site emailed me to say that I am crazy after reading my blog back then). But the iPhone is real, and it's public information now. So based on the little we know about the device so far, let's see how it stacks up against its smartphone competition.

the only thing it is missing is 3g video confrencing in ichat.... complete communication via the web plus cellular and position on maps and an MP3/video player... seems a very big deal.
Actually it's missing all of 3g. It's also missing a GPS. Oh, and you can't use external media with it. The battery is not replacable and 8gb is going to seem tiny in six months.
