you forgot to say that:
1) iphone have capacitive multi-touch screen compared to the nokias touch resistive screen.
for those who don’t know, capacitive technology last longer and it is fully funcional even when front glass is broken.
on n97 (resistive technology) have mechanical parts – a 2 thin layers thet touches each other when you press the screen. this tech. is very sensitive and it can be demaged by the sharp objects (and it scratches alot more than one on iphone).
2) iphone have 3-axis accelerometer compared to the nokia’s 2-axis wich means n97 can’t recognize all moving directions.
3)iphone original cpu clock is 833mhz but it’s underclocked to 620mhz to save battery and reduce heating.
sorry for my english.

Although the iPhone3G S is a very smart phone, it not intelligent enough to compete against the Nokia N97 Mini.
The Nokia N97 mini is like having a mini super computer on your pocket. The features of the Nokia N97 Mini are very impressive compared to the iPhone.
