I have the 9000 & my wife has the 9700. She has more apps, reboots faster, scroll through photos better & the touchpad rocks. Yeah my 9000 is good but the Trackball isn't as fast as the Touchpad. I have to reboot more often than her & clean the ball. She can run the Where app & for some reason I can't get past the splash screen.
I have also used the iPhone 3g which was nice but I had a hard time switching from qwerty keyboard to a touch so I got the 9000. I don't know if I would do it again though.
Hi don,t know if it helps but i,ve just gonr from an iphone 3gs to a 9700 and glad i did certainly won,t be going back to apple.
The iphone is a cool gaming phone but thats about all
