Yes you can. Email for starters. Or sync with iPhoto. Or in Windows it shows up as a camera device when connected and opens a window with all the photo's on it automatically. And you don't need iTunes for any of the above...

Loads of apps - "Bump" is one. But in this day and age, why bother? MMS, email, FTP, etc etc...

sure id like an iphone if it had decent camera, battery life and blue tooth compatability.
at present it would be a step backwards for me as it would stop me doing things i can do now. Surely thats not what new technology is about??? surely the iphone should be about being the best phone in the world??
Don't buy one then? Why are you getting all bent out of shape about it? It's not like you're being forced to buy one - if you think it's rubbish and no good for you - don't get one! SIMPLE!
Personally, I don't miss Bluetooth pic/file sharing at all. I think maybe twice in the last two years I could have used it over the options iPhone has. So for me, it's no big deal.
At the end of the day, this is Apple all over. I don't know why people bitch about it these days - Apple have been doing it for years, with the iPods, iBooks, iMacs etc. They ALWAYS hold back on things so when they implement them in "new" versions every year, people buy the new version. It's brilliant marketing, and it works - everytime.
They are a company - a company that wants to make money. They don't owe anyone anything, so why should they give everything they have at once. It's very simple - people want what you're selling; you sell stuff. People don't want what you're selling; you don't sell stuff.
