Music fades out when you have a call, then fades back in after
Photo display
Music (iPod mode)
Phone mode looks cool, nice way of going though contacts
Internet, with google maps. Which detects where you are! You can phone direct of google maps/internet.
and so on

3rd party apps are a possiblity IF they are provided I think Punky. It is OSX after all.
Those are new features?

PDA-Phone hybrids have been available for years. The also play more music and video than Ipods support. Every feature there is available elsewhere already. The Orbit/HTC P3300 includes all that, and has a memory card slot and 2mp camera. Actual features worth having it appears the iPhone doesn't

Also, there's no 3G/HDSPA which more phones will have next year.
