Posted by yules

I cant afford a new iPhone so was wondering if there is anything similar out there.

If you are referring to the iPhone screen capabilities

The iPhone is unique in that it allows software developers to create applications to run on the device. Most cell phones have a closed system while Apple has opened up its platform. This means applications can be created without the approval of the cell phone manufacturer, just like how programs run on Microsoft Windows.

In the application view described above, there are very few cell phones that have this kind of support, let alone developers wanting to create programs to run on the device. That makes iPhone a different type of cell phone and the answer to your question would be "no".

If you are thinking about a cell phones that have touchable screens, there are a few available:

  • ATT Quickfire
  • Blackberry Storm
  • Google Android G1
  • HTC Fuze
  • HTC Touch Diamond
  • HTC Touch Pro
  • LG Dare
  • LG Versa
  • Samsung Eternity
  • Samsung Instinct
  • Samsung Memoir
  • Samsung Omnia

Mind you, Apple's technology is superior because of the clean, attractive user interface and developer support.
