Its not available in Pakistan yet and even if it becomes later, it will cost more than Rs. 70k just like Omnia which still costs Rs. 60k whereas if u buy it from abroad it doesnt costs more than Rs. 47k.
Similarly, HD currently costs around Rs. 60k abroad

as said iphone is entertainment.

HTC is Windows OS.unlimited flexibility for "non entertainment" users.

Opera better then safari?

Non-entertainment

Emails,Internet,Stocks,Web-reuters,Ticks,Spreadsheets,Organiser or daily planner,,,,,my Uses.

Friendly user interface for all stuff?
I agree with you that as far as entertainment is concerned, Iphone is the best since its also the best Ipod till date!
But, as I mentioned earlier, if we look at both of them from a wider perspective, the HD beats iphone easily overall! Why? Bcoz:

The effective number of dpi in HD's resolution is far greater than Omnia and Iphone
Opera is not better than Safari but quite close to it!
HD also supports many formats for audio and video playback plus it has a 3.5 mm audio jack which enables the user to use any headset of his/her choice and this again takes the overall quality of music closer to Iphone!
The UI of HD (touchflo3d) may not be as friendly as Iphone's but it is the best in a window based mobile and gives u that Iphony feeling most of the time!
On the other hand,
Bluetooth on Iphone? NO! except for BT handsfree
Video recording? NO
SMS forwarding? NO (except that it can be achieved via 3rd party softwares)
MMS? NO
No copy/paste functionality in browser, text editor, messages etc..
Everytime u upgrade its software, u have to jailbreak it plus Unlock which is quite frustrating
U cant download music, videos directly from the browser
Iphone cant be used as a mass storage device on a PC and u r bound to sync it with iTunes for backup and restore which quite limits everything (those who have used it will agree with me)
And one more thing....it crashes a Hell lot!
