    My BB has Qwerty also. I can type much faster on my BB than I can on a touch screen phone. I have big fingers. If the new iPhone upgrade is good then I might consider giving it a chance. It would take some time getting used to typing on the screen though.

    And for those hoping the iPhone will be with Verizon by this summer:

    Why not? Why wouldn't they expand their market share?

    Has nothing to do with not wanting to expand.

    Its timing.

    (What better time than now?)

    Google "Verizon iPhone" and see for yourself.

    Aseop have you ever used either phone for a decent amount of time?? It's night and day between the two products. BB are really good phones, but it's not an iPhone. Sure, many of the features BB users have already been enjoying, while Apple is getting ready to release these features to iPhone users, but you know what it's not that big of a deal and we'll wait. Let me put it another way...

    Blackberry is the manager that's been @ your company for 20 yrs. The CEO regards him as one of the anchors of the company. He is a company man, with a tie and suit daily, somewhat stoic & stuffy, extremely knowledgeable, very professional, a strictly by the book type. Because of his long tenure he can get things done when others cannot. His jokes are eeehhh kinda corny if he ever says any, his personal stories about his life are boring. He always working, not really into sports but watches Dances with the Stars and Idol. He has your back and is reliable. Great, fantastic...

    Apple is the manager that's been @ your company 10 yrs and is @ the same managerial level and pay grade as the 20 yr manager. He's gotten so far so fast because of his wits, and his ability to make efficiencies in the way the company does business. He encourages out of the box thinking and is interested in cultivating your career. He has mastered the art of making everything very elementary, no matter what it is. Privately the CEO regards him as the future of the company. He's funny, not strictly by the book, he's rumored to be a ladies man but is very respectful of the women who work there. His stories are funny, his jokes are funny and he watches sports pretty often. He may not have all the answers for your problem but he'll get them and get back to you as he's done many times in the past.

    If you had to choose between the two, most and suspect you as well would choose the second manager, why? The second manager is easiest to work with, innovative and mostly likely fits your needs as a manager long term...

    I know that the technology of the iPhone is impeccable. I'm just a loyalist. That's what I'm used to. To each his own. I can't deal with a touch screen at the moment...maybe later. I'm not the one to jump into things because everyone else is doing it. I march to the beat of my own drums. Much respect to your views though. They are warranted and very necessary to the integrity of this thread. I love to engage in intelligent debate. Good stuff:smt023.

    You Can Now Buy an iPhone Without a Contract

    According to a leaked document by Apple, everyone will now be able to buy an iPhone in Apple stores without an ID and without an AT&T contract.

    You can buy one iPhone per day; the devices, however, will still be locked to AT&T, meaning you must either use an AT&T SIM with it or unlock it.

    The prices are: $499 for the iPhone 3G 8GB, $599 for the iPhone 3GS 16GB and $699 for the iPhone 32GB.

    Actually, Verizon's 3G network runs on a different network than the ones programmed into the iPhone which prevents you from being able to do that right now.

    This is true.

    Unfortunately, the price of an iPhone without a contract will cost $499 for the 3G 8GB, $599 for the 16GB 3GS and $699 for the 32GB 3GS.

    You guys would actually pay that much money for a phone? Look up iphone vs Android on youtube. In almost every study the android wins. The iphone has better markte share because of branding but its not the superior product
     
  18. LA

    LA Well-Known Member

    No. I wouldn't.

    No more than $199.
    No, the iPhone has better market share because overall, its a better phone.

    Aside from AT&Ts networking issues and Steve Jobs distaste for Adobe Flash products, the iPhone is ace.


    Unless, of course, you hate touch screens.

    Fam androids have multi tasking, they have far more free apps, they offer a bigger variety of phones and you get touch screen and a keyboard. The iphone is just more popular definitely not better. Its lynux and windows or leopard os for mac and windows. Windows is far more popular and used more but the other two os are far more efficient and have less viruses and crashing.
