lol! i had both of them, htc tytn II and iphone.
iphone can't compare to htc. mac os has a lack of programs, with windows mobile you can run virtually anything you want. there's plenty of programs and games...
there's no 3G on iphone which sucks! no video calls at all... it's even silly to compare it with 3.6mbps on
HSDPA on htc. that's like trying to compare dialup and broadband! are you really going to use Web2.0 apps on iphone through EDGE network (since it's not 3G complaint), which provides the data speed ranging from 80 kbps to 110 kbps? nope!
no qwerty keyboard, so you have to use the pen which is sometimes pain in the ass. when you get bored of using the pen on htc, just flip out the keyboard and voila, you are ready to go...
on-screen keyboard may be hard to use (hard to type on such a small surface with your thumbs)
no expandable memory. personally i think 8GB is enough memory, but the for ipod video lovers, its a dissadvantage... on there other side there's micro sd slot on htc.
cannot install third party software. there's no windows mobile, which is iphone dissadvantage. just try to compare number of available programs for win mobile and os x?
do i have to mention pocket office (word, excel, outlook, pdf viewer...)? do i have to mention that you can play for example age of empires and simcity 2000 virtually anywhere?
1.9MPix on iphone and 3.15Mpix with autofocus on htc (htc has better sharpness and night mode picture quality).
built in gps navigation on htc (ever heard of tomtom?) and i'm not sure if there's an option to use it even with an external gps device on iphone?!
htc has much better wifi, better range and sensitivity (i tried it in various conditions, spent couple of days in playing).
no removable battery. if the battery is broken, you send the phone to apple instead of they sending you the battery, which sucks.
htc battery stand-by time is 400 h and talk time is up to 9h on GSM or 6h on 3G, which is better comparing to iphone (250h and 8h talk time on GSM). no need to mention that there's double capacity battery for htc.
htc has wired remote control on the headphones.
htc has a jog dial.
the only advantage i was able to find on iphone was trivial:
it's better designed. it looks better, it does not have better functionality.
it's a bit thinner and has better default shell (widgets and web 2.0 design). go with Spb Mobile Shell (a win program), 1-2-3 - problem solved and there you go: htc is much more functional than an iphone! (just one of numerous windows mobile advantages!)
no need to talk about the price of an iphone. you end up paying somewhere close to a decent laptop.
