Dude, if you're gonna do what all the "cool kids" are doing these days and diss Jobs, you gotta get your facts straight. The 3GS (Possibly the 4, I don't own one) has one of, if not THE BEST sound quality of a smartphone on the market. Why? Because it uses the same audiophile-grade DAC chip as the iPod classic and other high-end PMPs. Don't believe me? Go check Head-fi. I do miss FLAC support, but it's not really an issue for me as I just convert it into ALAC. And even though ALAC takes up a bit more space, with 32GB of space I can carry around almost half my music library in lossless with me wherever I go. Plus, I get to browse my library with that pretty cover flow thing, too. Bash apple products for being useless until jailbroken or being too expensive and you'll have a valid point. But bash the iPhone on terms of sound quality? That, besides the lack of internal storage, is the one thing that's keeping me from making the switch to android.
