Interesting table. Can't see a row for which OS they are running...

Thanks for the comment -- if you add the "Software" group to the comparator (click it in the bottom row to add it) the phone OS is included in the "Mobile Software" row. You're right in thinking it deserves a row of its own though due to its relative importance and thanks to your point we'll be working on pulling it out from Mobile Software and giving it its own field. Thanks!

Like the post. Just a thought: It really helps when comparing phones to include some generalized text on good and bad of phone. I have the samsung juke, and some may want to know that it is terrible for texting, and the phone quite often flips open when in my pocket. It is great as a music player, but it takes a goofy Headphone input jack. Overall i find the phone to be more of a novelty. Probably great for teenagers and the like, but could be hard to be taken seriously elsewhere.

Warning: When owning this phone, be prepared to hear constant comments comparing it to the SNL Will Farrell skit where he owns an impossibly small phone. I know from experience, You will hear it often.

Probably great for teenagers and the like, but hard to be taken seriously in the business world when holding a small stick of the phone.

Hey Anon, we can't find anywhere that corroborates the enV2 supporting WiFi -- are you positive you don't mean Bluetooth (as in, using as a modem for your laptop)? Thanks!
