Basically, those are running on different OS. If you like WinMo, then go for Diamond 2 which i don't really recommend since HTC HD2 is coming out soon. If you really need one now, i'ld suggest you iPhone 3GS.

If you want a WinMo phone, you should wait or else get an iPhone 3GS
But there will be massive handset production next year, im hoping for iPhone 4thGen too lol

iPhone not having basic features (I assume you're talking about MMS/Bluetooth/Copy-Paste and the like) is a thing of the past. Well, you still can't do a few things you may take for granted but it is a good straight-out-of-the-box phone. Play with one and see if it suits you.

should be 1st half of Dec 2009 (likely 1st week-end). pre-orders are being taken by green and red camps.
L'amour sur la plage déserté, nos corps brûles, enlacés.
Comment t'aimer si tu t'en vas dans ton pays loin là-bas?
================
오늘 하루라도 너를 갖고 싶어
내가 얼마나 사랑하는지
생각만큼이나 표현할 수 없는
내 자신이 너무 바보란 걸 알았어
================
너의 가슴으로 가는 길
