Re: Black Berry Or iPhone 4?
I've been considering getting an Iphone 4 I never owned a smartphone but they seem handy.
Still an extra 30 a month for browsing upsets me and hidden fees worry me. I may stay low tech on phones.

another reason to go with android is that att is limiting its "unlimited" usage plan to 2gb a month... now thats a lot but if your like me and have a droid, you have the capability to tether your phone to your laptop/computer and you can easily burn through 2gb

Re: Black Berry Or iPhone 4?
I honestly don't think black berries are even worth considering with the iPhone and HTC's phones.

Re: Black Berry Or iPhone 4?
An iphone is going to cost you a lot more in cost of ownership than a blackberry is going to, that is for plan charges and so forth. I have a bb storm and have had for a year and I love it. My sister, mom, brother-in-law, and many friends have iphones and they all complain about crappy battery life and other issues that my bb never has.
The difference between the two as far as I can tell is that the iphone is more a personal, fun phone with a zillion apps, most of which are for personal use. The blackberry is more of a business appliance, with a lot of functionality and a few 'fun' apps for personal use.
Of course, if I was buying a new phone today, I'd get a droid, so take it for what it's worth.

Angry hit the nail in the head. Blackberry vs. iPhone is really like comparing apples to oranges at this point in time.
Droid vs. iPhone is the direct competitor.
I have an iPhone only because I've had an iPhone from the first day iPhone came out. I just kept upgrading because there was nobody else like it on the market. With the Droid, the playing field changes, but I haven't had a chance to test it out yet - no money yet. Same reason I don't have the iPhone 4 yet. I just bought an iPad recently so I'm building savings again.

Re: Black Berry Or iPhone 4?
Having had the BB Pearl, bold and now the iPhone4 there is no comparing the devices. While BB tried to break into the "Teen" market with the curve and the "touch" they are and will be for the foreseeable future geared more toward the corporate clients. BB menus are difficult to navigate and very complex, their graphics are 8bit weak and lets face it the over all size of the phone is laughable.
My iPhone is about the same size as the Pearl and yet the Pearl doesn't have near the power or ability of the iPhone. Even some of the bigger BB's like the curve and the bold while there are HTC produces the same size they have more to offer in User Interface and ease of use 10x more than the BB.
With the cost of smart phones coming in to the average users range you'd be better off buying an HTC or iPhone. While admittedly both have their little things that make the other side laugh, both are leaps and bounds above any BlackBerry Product out to date.

Re: Black Berry Or iPhone 4?
Smart phones??? Please... If they were truly "smart", they would be able to recognize when they were being used at the same time the user is operating a motor vehicle. This would cause the phone to send a signal to the car to shut it off. Of course this will only work the first three times. The forth time, the phone will shut off the car, lock all windows and doors and release a poisonous gas...

Re: Black Berry Or iPhone 4?
im not a phone person by any means. I dont like to speak on the phone id rather speak in person. So phones have never meant anything to me. I broke my old nextel which is now sprint and they offered me the blackberry for free since i had never upgraded to a new phone after like 6 years of using there service. I went with the blackberry because just about everyone i know has it so i use the bbm feature a lot. I know a few die hard iphone fans but its never really appealed to me.
