I've owned a blackberry 8820 for over 16 months now and I'm sick of it. It's been slow, it's GPS is crap and it keeps crashing or slowing down so much it becomes unusable until you remove the battery to reboot it which takes forever.
The only good thing is their Push Email service and the full querty keyboard.
It's the last blackberry I'm buying unless they come up with something amazing.
I just bought an iphone 3G off ebay. I don't want to sign up for another 18 months contract just yet so I'm going to be going on PAYG.
It's an amazing piece of kit. Iv'e never liked Apple stuff before so I am not a fan boy and I did think the iphone was all hype but after using it and playing Monkey Island SE on it amongst othe Amiga games I am well impressed.
It's the best gadget I've ever owned despite its minor flaws.
I got mine unlocked because I don't like O2 becvause their coverage sucks in my area and also they have made billing errors on our work mobile contracts.
I don't care what anyone says the iphone redefined the mobile phone so credit to Apple. With OS3 it's usability is is much improved.
Comparing blackberry with iphone? No competition. iPhone wins straight off.
Trust me, that's coming from someone who owns both.
As for all the detractors. We know you want one really
Who'd have thought eh? Now that the red v blue wars are finally over we are arguing over iphones and blackberries on Amiga org. :roflmao:
