GPS is nice...but there is no navigation application installed or available.
Google maps is the only option.

what makes the Iphone better phone than HTC diamond?

Internet browsing.
Camera
Memory
GPS application
available applications
Screen

Chak beat me to it: yes, Tomtom for iPhone is coming... that alone would be very "wantable". :)

I have already pre-ordered one from my operator, though I'm still waiting for details for the final price and required subscriptions.

Steve Jobs said the prices would be $199/$299 worldwide - but having an iPhone 3G for 130 Euros still sounds a bit "impossible" to me.

As for the subscriptions, mobile data rates are still expensive - we have a cheap one in here, 7 euros/month, but limited to 100MB/month - which might be enough for regular smartphones for email and opera mini. But not for regular web browsing on the iPhone...

Fun part is ofcourse that they are going to sell it in .nl with t-mobile. And if you get the web & walk from tmobile they cut you down on your bandwith speed. So at 128kbits or something like that. So then you have a 3g phone, but you cant use the full speed..

anyway, they expect the 2.0 firmware around the 27th... (this month)

Upload is not the problem..I need more bandwidth in download.

i have unlimited with vodafone (10 euro's a month) its not really unlimited, but for what i use, some browsing and some email and other stuff, i've never had complaints. You only get a complaint when your 10x higher then the average user. And then you get a complaint first, but after 3x they will take actions, so you get warnings first..
