PinStack.com's ultimate 3G BlackBerry Bold & 3G Apple iPhone 2.0 Comparison
Things to note about the 3G Apple iPhone and 3G BlackBerry BOLD: - The 3G iPhone's internal processor is STILL the same as the original. So much for more speed. Whereas previous BlackBerrys had 312MHz and the new BOLD has a 624MHz processor. Who's truly "twice as fast" as before?
- BlackBerry's consumer PUSH email service is included with your BlackBerry internet Service (BIS) plan. In addition the iPhone internet you must pay for "MobileMe" subscription for PUSH email.

I think you can install 3rd party apps to have that function on iphone. But above considers out-of-box only.

Let's be really honest- The iPhone is a beautiful device and if you're a music/video junkie it is the device for you.
However the Blackberry is the productivity powerhouse. Secure Push email, PIM features, dedicated messenger app, third party apps. Qwerty keyboard- hands down the better of these two.
But I do recognize Apple's style and most importantly their ability to deliver a great product. RIM should not take this competition lightly. RIM needs to go from great to OUTSTANDING to keep Apple at bay.
(* Particularly around launches of new products & software. STILL WAITING ON OS 4.5)

why? The bold can sync with itunes and can have 16gig capacity.... I see no need to even consider the iPhone for a music junkie. Not to mention A2DP... how can somebody call themselves a music junkie and demands the most sound quality possible when the iPhone wont support stereo bluetooth.....

Couldn't say it any better.. Plus, how do you claim to be a PDA when you can't even copy and paste.. You would have thought they would have fixed that, but I guess not..

I was really considering the iPhone when I went shopping for a new phone....but before I committed, I did my research, and I'm glad I did...I went with RIM and I'm very happy I did...bye bye iPhone, you've been beat!!
