Uhhh.... look at the demos and the interface... the "Multi-gesture" interface. It takes two fingers to unlock the phone for use... it uses a pinching motion on the slider bar. If you dial from the address book, you use a similar pinching motion. Try holding your phone in one hand and perform a pinching motion on the screen then sliding the pinched fingers across the screen... can't be done. Almost all of the phone's operation takes a two finger gesture (hence the multi-gesture interface's name).

Or hell... dial by feel. No little bump on the '5' key in an on-screen touchpad. Voice Dial? Not in there.

Just the fact that it doesn't have a GPS chip in it for those cool mapping functions and that it doesn't even support a high speed network (My Cingular CU-500 gets me DSL speeds when I tether my laptop to it) for the internet makes it less than useful for me. Gimme a blackjack. it's got all of the capabilities of the iPhone in a smaller, faster, and more technologically advanced package.

Oh... I forgot... it's not an Apple, therefore not cool.

(please don't get me wrong.... I'm a PC to Mac convert... PC for work, 3 PC servers and 1 BSD server at home, 3 Macs and 2 iPods at home, and my next computer that I pay for will also be a Mac)
