Canon 1Ds Mk II vs. Nokia Camera phone

I recently bought a 20D, thinking that it was up to technical snuff. It has several plugs for different things, and it's compliant with about 5 different kinds of interface, like pictbridge, DPOF, and print direct. I hate to burst your bubble(jet), but I think this works with the Black Berry. Will follow up in another post.
I have mixed thought about which one to buy.

Does anyone have experience with both of these?
 
Dpreview needs more topics like this. Actually, one at a time is fine.

I hear that Nikon is getting pretty close to a camera phone... That D2x is GPS ready! Not to mention the standard audio recording message capability.

But yeah, holding a full sized body with a vert. grip up to your ear? I rest my case, get the Nokia and save your elbow/shoulder the agony...

But hey, it'd make a great James Bond gadget! Imagine Bond nonchalantly holding a mkII up to his ear with a nice hefty 600mm attached, casually chatting away on his phone, ...but actually his sunglasses are wired to a mini video camera implanted in his ear so he can shoot pictures of evil-doers 100 yards off... I think we're onto something here...

Okay so I wasn't funny. Sue me.

And you know what else you'll love about the Nokia? If you misplace it somewhere in your house, you can just grab someone else's phone and give it a ring! Can you do THAT with your DSLR? Nope...
