<br>Its a good phone. extended Office functionality is missing though. $199 is just too good a price to beat.<br>

[I trust this will not initiate a flame war.] Please?<br>
<br>
iPhone v2 announced today. I'd like to understand<br>
on a hardware basis ONLY (I grok the value of <br>
free and open source) how does <br>
the entry level $199 iPhone with 4GB<br>
compare with Freerunner GTA02.<br>
<br>
where I get lost is how much RAM iPhone<br>
has vs Freerunner. I realize I can buy <br>
high capacity microSD flash card to match <br>
iPhone flash capacity<br>
<br>
are these assertions correct?<br>
<br>
Apple has:<br>
<br>
-- 3G data [much faster than Freeruner's GPRS]<br>
-- faster processor<br>
-- larger physical screen size (but about the same dpi?)<br>
-- 2 megapixel camera<br>
-- proximity sensor (knows when held to face, can dim screen)<br>
<br>
the two smart phones are aprox equal on<br>
-- wi-fi<br>
-- accelerometer <br clear="all">
-- bluetooth<br>
