you have to remember any pda or phone is only as good as the service provider.here in ontario the storm is either by bell or telus,my brother in law has a new storm and i played with it for a few days,very nice.as well i had the opportunity to ply with an i phone.my main requirements were email and the actual phone as i do use it alot.in the end i went with the i phone hosted with rogers wireless.the phone works perfect,better than bell as i still have a phone with them,i was also with telus for 6yrs and i can say rogers works much better in toronto area.as for the i phone itself i never thought i would use any of the apps they offer and that wasnt even a factor in deciding on it,but once i had it theres quite a few aps i found useful and able to employ in everyday tasks for work,i dont use the ipod feature,its an all around great handheld device,my brother in law was playing with it after he got his storm and regrets not getting the i phone,the only drawback is i rely on email to reach my right away,the i phone takes 15 minutes at its best setting whereas any blackberry its instant,there is an app for i phone to upgrade to instant but it runs about $100 if i remember correctly,either way with the storm or i phone you cant go wrong,on u tube type in iphone vs. storm and theres a guy that does a head to head with both units showing all features,pro and cons.hope this helps.
