Blackberry is utter crap and if the guy who said that bb hardware was superior could kindly tell my 7 junk bb perals, curves and bolds it would be greatly appreciated. No for real though iv had nothing but problems with BB for years now and will never buy another BB. I'm currently sitting on the fence and despite people claiming androids are better I see absolutely no difference in the two phones. It's apples vs oranges no pun intended

BB for business? iPhone for play? I don't understand that argument.

I've done a tonne of business (running conferences and talking to almost 100 vendors) through my iPhone. No problems, easy to communicated etc.. I have NEVER had a situation where I couldn't do "business" on the phone.

Truth is - people are attached to their phones

BB users (like the BB corporation) is unfortunately "OLD SCHOOL THINKING" and is losing marketshare RAPIDLY!

iPhone and Android phones are #1 & #2 in the world and RIM is falling fast.

Google will NOT buy BB unless there is some intellectual property they want. Not because it is a good brand. They (google) already own Motorola Mobility so they don't need much more. (although every time google sneezes they spit out 10 BB companies in $ value).

I use my iPhone for business and storing music/podcasts. I can edit documents (in a pinch... screen is a bit small... but good for emergencies), read PDFs and do everything I need to do.

for us, it's security. Smart phones don't securely connect to our servers, so policy says nothing but BB. The company pays for the BB, not smart phones, so that's a lot of Blackberries (we have close to half a million employees)

Best thing I like about the iphone 4s is the ability to have talk to text.

ya the pearls were a bad phone.. first forage into a consumber based flip phone desgine. girls BBerrys I call them curves were better but not much, I never had a bold but they had a real good track record.

BBerrys are also the only cell phone that can be used in an oficial capacity by our military.
