Sorry for the comment 'jacking, but the Samsung P2 DOES NOT PLAY H.264! Engadget, for some reason, loves to report that it does, but it doesn't. It play WMV (with restrictions on size, bitrate, and profile), and Samsung's proprietary SVI format. Anything else will require conversion.
It's funny, in every news article in Canadian media we mention the lack of the iPhone
"Ontario Budget contains help for education, no iPhone" "In absence of iPhone, car stolen from curlers in Vernon, BC." "Waterloo's RIM sees stocks rise after another day without the iPhone in Canada" "France hints at supporting Canadians in Afghanistan, no word on iPhone support back home" "Jays start season without Rolan, Ryan and iPhone"

Didn't you get the memo? Everything with a touchscreen is automatically an iPhone / iPhone knockoff. They DID invent the touchscreen, you know.

You can see the trend.

(i know i know, there's absolutely nothing that makes this thing similar in any way to an iphone, blah blah blah)
anyway, i freakin' WISH this thing was a phone: it's better than any other Samsung phone out there, it just can't make calls. :(
I'd really like to see the YP-P2 get a cell radio crammed in it and sold here in the US. ...on Sprint. :)
