1. 8330, 9530, G1 android
2.Email, text, IM....then phone (wow cant believe i said that :P)
3. Pushed Email, Snappy Camera, Reliable OS. (is that a feature now? 9530 got me wondering.)
4. 8900, 9530, G2
5. Agree. I have a storm and the glitches in the OS are really unnerving. Having a responsive and smooth operation is vital to the use of any device. Could you imagine having to restart your computer a few times a day just cause? The BB is not much different.

Regards

I currently have the 8830 World phone and 8310. I use Google Maps, Capture It and also Rove Mobile Viewer for company Lunch and Learn's about the Blackberryfeatures. I guess the features that are important to me are 3g network and maps because i use that the most with my device.

I have checked out the Bold, 8320 Curve and Storm.. So far I've liked the Bold the best by far.
As far as the OS, I agree that it's the most important part of the Blackberry. I think if it didn't it would have some different piece's to it and troubleshooting would be such a hassle.

Blackberry 8900 (By FAR my favorite blackberry to date... and I had the Storm for about a month)
Corp Email, BB Msgr, Sametime Client, Viigo and Gmail
WIFI and GPS
iPhone, 9530 or 8220

Not really, but I am a OS update freak, as soon as a new one is out, it is on my bb. So I guess really, I agree.

  1. 8220 Pearl Flip
  2. a little of everything honestly.
  3. Flexibility to use multiple apps. the more i can use the better.
  4. Another 8220, a 95xx, or a 8350i
  5. i agree. the OS is pretty much the primary "brain" funtion of the phone. The better the OS, the better the Phone and its capabilities.

  5. Disagree. I've seen great platforms in Android and Blackberry. It all depends on what you want to do. Windows isn't for me, I have always found it too awkward to use.

The most important smartphone aspect would be battery life and memory usage. the more memory and better battery (to a certain degree) more can be accomplished. although it's not a computer, we should have some type of edge on it.
