Blackberry Storm

fred-
had a BB curve and it was fine. not a single technical issue with it at all. that said, it's a bland phone that is stupid difficult to put music on. for business only use it's perfect.

now, however, i have an iPhone. i was wicked skeptical of it and having gone from a BB to the iPhone is a pretty big switch...one i'm still getting used to. HOWEVER, i can't fathom going back to a device that does as little as the BB did.

once you have an iPhone you realize how imperfect all the other devices you've ever had are...and I've had at least one of all of them going back as deep as the second gen palm pilot. in today's market you simply can't get a better device than the iPhone. yes, it has it's faults but they quickly become non-issues.

if you do have your little army of none heart set on an iPhone, you could buy one at cost and jail break it for $50 which will allow you to use it on any network. up front your costs are higher but i would guess that long term you'd be in better shape.
 
My Friend who has the BBS hates it, locks up, slow so on.
I agree with Norm the IPhone is the best out there at this time.
I have only had problems with the phone do to my own hacking it.
Just better bang for the buck apps are great so on.

ATT has issues with their towers at this time. They are in the middle of upgrading them with fiber trunks. Right now to handle the problems with speed and other broadband issues, they are adding T1 lines in the towers. A buddy of mine is on this upgrade project. This should boost speed for Iphone and other ATT users.

IMO your better off with the IPhone.

Not true. Iphone works on GSM frequencies only (AT&T or T-mobile) and will not work on a CDMA based network like Verizon or Sprint. The hardware is completely incompatible with CDMA in the current configuration. Jailbreaking just unlocks Apple's exclusivity on loading apps.
 
now that its public knowledge, I am advising all my acquaintances to wait till Jan - Feb for the Palm Pre. The "Web OS" is awesome. It has an actual QWERTY keyboard with buttons, and It will have a ton of apps for it by the time we release it. Go to a sprint store to check it out (But buy it from VZW in 2010 😀 ) Seriously you will come away impressed...

Everybody has an iPhone... 😛
