Comparison: iPhone 3GS vs Palm Pre vs Motorola Droid vs Nexus One
The fine fellas at US price comparison site BillShrink.com have knocked out another of their excellent comparison charts, breaking down the key features and costs of the current big hitters in the smartphone world: the iPhone 3GS, Palm Pre, Motorola Droid and the brand spanking new Google Nexus One.
At a glance you can see some of the stand-out differences: the iPhone is now the only one without multitasking, while the Nexus knocks out the best 3G talk time of all at an impressive 7 hours.
The Palm’s app catalogue looks almost embarrassingly bereft of goodies (even though the actual figure has now risen to a 1,000), while the Android store still lags a fair way behind Apple’s cornucopia of app delights.
Seeing as we’re UK based, we left off the part of the chart that compares US pricing, but – in a nutshell – the iPhone and Droid are the most expensive ($3,799 total costs for an unlimited plan), followed by the Nexus One at $2,339 with the Palm being the cheapest option at an economical $2,309.
Here’s how the device’s stack up:

All those fancy features- and I don’t think any of them have an FM radio or a torch (the two features I use most on my not-very-smart phone)
They also neglect to mention the iPhone 3GS comes in 32gig too…
