As much as I love the iPhone 3G, I do find it quite bizarre that it seems to be so prone to crashing. What’s even more bizarre is that Apple doesn’t provide any information on how to reboot the iPhone in the included “Finger Tips” instructions.

While the iPhone 3G is much loved by Apple fans and tech geeks, and even dubbed the Jesus phone by some more extreme members of the cult, how does Apple’s golden boy stack up as a cell phone for real people?

Using your iPhone 3G can be a little daunting at first. I think of myself as quite technically literate, but I still found myself jumping onto Google to see how to how to do this or that. What didn’t help was that this was my first "smart" phone and also that I’m Windows user rather than a Mac guy.

It was only last year that Greg Winn, a top executive with Australian telecommunications company Telstra, was blasting the iPhone, and telling Apple to stick to its knitting. Now, if the latest rumors are to be believed, Telstra will be distributing the iPhone in Australia, and may be launching it in late June. Though there is some evidence that Telstra won’t have the iPhone to itself.
