Nokia N96 or Apple 3G iphone Which phone you will purchase ?

Apple 3G iPhone and Nokia N96 are out there in Indian market. Which one is better from the point of view of value for money.
Airtel and Vodafone will sell the phone for around 31,000 rupees ($ 712) for the 8 GB memory model, and 36,100 for the 16 GB model. Indian customers are not happy with this huge price of 3G iPhone. This is almost 3 times higher than the price of iPhone in USA($ 199). Now Nokia has plans to launch N-96 in October but due to competition from iPhone, it was forced to go for early release of N-96. Price of Nokia N96 will be Rs. 30,000.

Nokia N96 comes with 16Gb internal memory and you can expand upto 28 GB. The N96 will come preloaded with the movie ‘Om Shanti Om’, 50 music videos, music tracks in Hindi and English and 3 N-Gage games with an unlimited license on for the 3rd edition of Asphalt Urban.

Apple 3G iphone comes with 8GB memory. You can not expand memory. Internet surfing is advantages with safari browser. But 3G iphone safari web browser doesnt support flash, xhtml, wap, etc. its an html ONLY.
The n96 (basing it off the n95-4) browser is the FULL internet. you can go to youtube and watch youtube videos.
the n96 is a far better phone. in every aspect.

I was knowing that one cannot transfer file from computer to iPhone through bluetooth. But this is the first time I am hearing another bug in iPhone, that it gets too hot after continuous long use. Thank you for making us aware about this weird fact of iPhone.
