compatabilty, reliability & durability
and still as dumb as a brick , common dawg...
2 types a phones: Business and the other mess
3G, Mobile Office, eBookReader, Music Player with RDS FM, Intanet, IM+( instant messaging), TouchScreen Interface, EDGE, Symbian OS 9.1, Bluetooth, Modem, Wi-Fi, RSS reader, voice activation & command etc.. etc. as standard while Nokia & 'em were ma** producing entry level 'Cute' phones.
The Operating System's like MAC OSX vs. 'ventersXP'
so them Wind'hoes phones need to lay back 'cause of them Bluescreen shocks.
PocketPC + Windows Mobile 5 is cool except they have a weak track record with managed code.
as for cameras, media players & the fun JAVA games etc.. , any phone can do by now.
Look at nokias 9000 series business brick, hell I'll throw it at a lion when I'm in shit... that how bulky it was while ericsson T39 series had bluetooth and built in modem with the infra & voice activation & you could sync it with a Psion 5 MX pda whose underlying kernel also interfaces with the Symbian backbone.
It's like a megadrive circuit board compared to a 16-Bit SuperNes
X-Box compared to Sony, there are just harder guys out there, I believe its SE.
