Watching movies on phone?

I originally thought about getting the smaller Archos 405 (3.5 inch 4/3 screen), but thought perhaps a phone could play the odd movie etc.

Bad idea?

I was comtemplating getting a TyTN2 windows mobile PDA, or perhaps the Nokia N80 (or whatever the new one is)?

If you can't be bothered to constructively quantify your responses why bother to respond at all...So childish...

I agree. If you can't respond in a constructive manner then why bother responding. Just saying something is crap is just pointless and silly.

sorry badman didnt no u was so hard, i fault it was common knowledge the iphone is crap , why get an iphone which works out 900 for 18 months when you can get something like the samsung f700 which is better, it has better camera, keyboard, video recorder with just as large a screen as the iphone so its fine to watch movies on it.
