Blackberry Curve vs IPhone

[CWS]

I will be switching to the Storm next week. My bag phone finally quit.

I was shocked too especially after how hyped he was on getting the phone. It was just a pain having to Snapple cap each and every letter.

RonC - I just came to the same decision about Curve over iPhone but for me it was financial decision. The plan and up front cost were much less with a Curve 8320 on T-mobile vs an iPhone on AT&T. Any suggestions for apps (free or otherwise) for the BB?

I think this will probably be my first download:

Besides the 2 Ron mentioned I also have Facebook, weatherbug and Viigo installed. Viigo is a great RSS app. It comes preloaded with RSS feeds and you can add more too it.

I've been looking around for a free podcast downloader/manager. Any advice on that front?

the best place for free / paid software and a great forum is over at crackberry.com they have just about anything you want and it is safe ordering from there. Any software you get it is sent OTA(over the air) to your BB

I am pretty happy with my storm. Took a little getting used to as the keys differ greatly from my underwood.

The misses just got the BB bold 2 weeks ago from work(free).Holy shit is that phone amazing! And the near HD screen is better then some of my lower priced flat panels in my home!

I prefer the Blackberry. Touch screens are overrated IMO. Tough to type with, even though they are improving. Either, way I still prefer a keyboard.

I have a BB, I like it over the I phone due to the fact that I don't like the Slider touch screen. Plus I don't care for the Operating system. I like the blackberry and i like the features. I have added the navi system to mine, great turn by turn setup. I have Google maps, and several other apps. I have read that you might want to be careful with the storms there has been a 2:1 return ratio on these phones because BB pushed them out rather fast. So for you owners beware. I want the new HTC phone, I'm sorry but I forgot the name of it but it is the nexr generation of the Tilt. that looks sweet, It's an AT&t phone. Love my BB, it is really cool once you use it to it's full potential.

I have to agree with you Ron I also have a Curve and I am also learning new things on it as well mind you i've had for over a year now LOL but then again i am VERY computer illiterate.........:scratchhe

If you have an Iphone you owe it to yourself to jailbreak it so you can see what the phone is capable of really doing. I jailbroke mine to 2.2.1 and so far minus finding a way to send/rcv MMS messages I've got everything else.
