iPhone with no Java support

What a pity! Besides its innovative innovative input solutions and futuristic look and feel the recently released iPhone by Apple lacks some features that many current phones offer by default. This is really annoying for such an expensive device of around 500 $ for the 4GB model. Some of these negative points are:

  • No support for mobile Java applications
  • No 3G wireless data connections possible
  • Non-removable battery
  • Closed platform, no SDK available
  • Camera with only 2.0 megapixels
  • iPhone activation is mandatory
For information on the iPhone, specs can be found here.
