I just bought a Nokia 6280 for my wife and it has quite good MP3 function after putting in a 2GB Mini-SD (less than US$30). It also has the basic PIM functions. I also install decent Chinese-English dictionary for her. Consider this is relative a cheap phone (US$100 with 2 year subscription), I think it pretty covers the PDA/MP3/Phone function. Apple iPhone has better specifications than the Nokia 6280 and it bears the Apple name. So I believe it will do quite well. Will I buy it? Probably not. I do not use cell phone much and I am using a prepaid plan. I also do not listen to MP3 much and I already has a cheap MP3. I find I use a Sony Radio much more often (BBC and some other local FM stations).
