I wanna gift a high end handset to my dad next month on his Anniversary. So out of these 2 handsets which one is better? In terms of high end advanced features??

I think Milestone would be a good choice.

I would say iPhone 4G, if it is for your dad. I feel it is less complicated than Android, so would be easy for those who don't like fiddling around even for basic options. I say this from my experience, My dad is addicted to my iPod touch's interface and usability and doesn't like the other phones he tried.

heck, even a 3GS would do :)

If your dad already has a working phone, get him an iPad :)

My dad owns an old Crappy CDAM handset, the only reason I am pushing my dad to move into GSM so that I can get him a good highend GSM handset. He does too much SMS so an iPhone without Keyboard, how handy will it be??

iphone onscreen qwerty is one of the best that I have seen. very comfortable to use and has damn good prediction. Remember, stay away from 3G, get 3GS instead.

Nevermind, I overread what you wrote:lol:. Yes 3GS is good for multi-tasking. Tell me is onscreen keyboard really good for fast typing??

I can type faster on iPod touch, faster than my desktop keyboard and Spica. Main reason being the dictionary prediction and super accurate touch response. Try it once and you'll agree :)

iphone is iphone. typing in iphone can never be compared with any other touch phones. NEVER.
