Wow… did you see the iPhone ads?! When I first read the specifications of the iPhone, I thought, “Yuck… that’s nothing compared to my Nokia N95.” But after watching the ads, I forgot all about specs, numbers, and features, and actually considered it as my next phone.

The ads for the iPhone show exactly what you can do with it, how it works, and how it will look like while using it. After seeing the ads, I have to say the iPhone looks really cool and is adequate for everyday use. Nokia employee Paul Whitaker even thinks the iPhone commercials are better than the N95 ads.

I can’t wait to play with an iPhone. Of course, by going to an Apple iPhone from a Nokia N95, I will be missing 3 features I use the most on the Nokia N95:

• GPS
• 5 megapixel camera
• DVD-like Camcorder

But will I really miss these features? The GPS on the Nokia N95 is very useful finding new places, but it often takes way too long to find my location… sometimes taking 5-10 minutes. The 5 megapixel camera is amazing… BUT ONLY during the day. The camcorder is good for videos too, and not having this feature on the iPhone is the one thing setting me back.

I’ll have to see how well the iPhone works in real life so I can compare it to my current Nokia N95. If the unconfirmed Nokia N82 announced by Ricky Cadden, supposedly releasing later this year, fixes the shortcomings of the N95, I’ll probably upgrade to that after “downgrading” to the iPhone.
