iPhone comes to Europe

According to media reports, it appears three operators will be the first to sell Apple's iphone in Europe: O2 in the UK, Orange in France and T-Mobile in Germany.

There is no doubting the progress phones are making - in the man-machine interfaces and their service features. But does the iphone advance the whole handset story? I have a Nokia Communicator and while it is very useful to send emails and browse I rarely use its Windows office features.

Have handsets advanced to a degree that they are an adequate substitute to laptops for users on the move? And if not, just what is still missing?
