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.

My fiance and lil sis have an iphone. I have a bb curve, my father had a bb storm (HATED IT) and my older sis has a bb world. The iphone is the best by far. From everything I can tell... iphones are the best phone you can have... it'll do a thousand other things and is very user friendly.

I have the 6gig data plan for the iphone only because i got in for a deal, I use the internet/apps/email/ everything you could do with data and have still yet to hit 1 gig of use over 4months. Just get the 1 gig data package and you will be fine.

Had the iphone and liked it, but recently switched to a Blackberry bold and love it! After having HTC touch and iphone I was just dying to have a propper keyboard again. iphone is great and all, but I'm sick of touchscreens! I can type out a text, post, email ect on a Blackberry without having to look at the keyboard. I could never get to this point with any touchscreen device. Also, having touchflo technology uses up valuable resources that could otherwise be used for something else.

The Nokia N82 is rather powerfull but it's best feature is a great camera with a real flash (xenon). My only complaint is the lack of a real keyboard or touchscreen, there are rumors a touchscreen is coming. I've had no reception issues in Canada, US, or Europe.
