Seems that even though it doesn't have U.S. carrier support, it's quite a nice phone. Very similar to the Sony Ericsson XPeria. Any thoughts on this? What about the new N97?

But would still think that Intended Usage has to be a big factor in preference. For example: More MEDIA oriented users would probably prefer the iPhone for screen & Apple (iTunes) connection. (Fuze has a beautiful screen, but iPhone's is larger....) & so on & so forth for each distinct User Group: Locked into Blackberry? Hate WM? Dislike bulk?... Still, a fun exercise - and one guaranteed to show different results as newer devices enter the market!

Still, a fun exercise – and one guaranteed to show different results as newer devices enter the market!

I see people are still voting... I wonder what will happen if some iPhone related blog will suddenly publish a link to the poll. Or maybe a Palm related blog... oh, what are the chances of such existence... :-) Probably… I see people are still voting…

So 66% of people dispute the "winner". Maybe "undisputed" means something different in French.... ;) @Gil: Why didn't the T-Mobile G1 make your summary list? It has as many votes as the Omnia and more than the Treo Pro. Did it get additional votes after you captured the results? Steve @Theo
