Hey Teelo, my review of the aforementioned phones:

iPhone OS 3.0

Pros
- New features, such as copy and paste text/photos
- 3G tethering, which allows you to connect your phone to your laptop to use it as a modem for net access
- landscape keyboard has been added to SMS, mail and notes
- shake to shuffle feature, which allows you to literally shake the phone to shuffle your music!
- Third party Application features which adds the possibility of over 1000 new APIs to extend the capabilities of new Applications

Cons
Uhm.... i can't think of any

Nokia N97

Pros:
- Good spec,
- Massive storage of 32GB of storage (expandable to 48GB),
- Good connectivity,
- Decent keyboard,
- Long battery life.

Cons:
- Crappy touch interface design,
- Applications are not optimised well for touch, camera is 5mp but pics come out looking crappy at full crop,
- Media playback features seem underpowered; the N97 has some good hardware, but can't quite manage the interface and apps to handle all that power

xpPhone
I don't know too much about this one...but i'm sceptical having done a quick net search.....

Verdict
Not too impressed with the Nokia... the E series or Nokia N85 would bode better than this...i'm sceptical about the xpPhone...i'd go with the iPhone...but hey i'm biased
