iPhone or Blackberry Curve... let's discuss.


I am about to take the plunge and move to a... 
Whole. Other. Level. 
I must decide between the iPhone and the curve.
Please give me your opinions. I'm not even talking about the New iPhone. I'm talking the $99 one vs. the Curve.
Please volunteer pros and cons to help me make my decision.
Thank you friends.
PS if you have never commented before, now is a good time. Especially if you are a techie and know your stuff :) Think of it as your charity for the month!

Oh my girdle Patty!! I have been thinking the same thing. I will be checking in to see the vote.

I have to share. LOL... As I'm typing away here I looked out the window and discovered who has been eating my strawberries. My friend Mr. Squirrel! He was sitting on my angel's head outside munching away without a care in the world. That little stinker! LOL...

Have a golden weekend my friend!

Our Technical Fellows swears by the iPhone. Actually he thinks it's the future of the universe. Here's a link he forwarded to us. http://gigaom.com/2009/06/18/the-browser-is-dead-long-live-the-browser/. Of course, our CTO swears by Windows. I think the answer is that the answer isn't clear yet so just take the plunge one way or the other. Says me with a 2.5 year old Razr...getting read to take the same plunge.

I love my Blackberry! I am not a techie but I am writing you from it! I use it for calendar,lists,blogging,facebook,NY Times, Washington Post and several local news stations. It is like carrying a laptop in my purse. I have never had any problems with it. I use it more than my laptop! Love to hear what you decide b/c I have been wondering the difference. Goodluck!

I want an Iphone so bad that I would trade my husband for one. Husband has a blackberry and loves it and is the kind of person that cant open windows to make a new document so the blackberry must be easy.

For me though...the Iphone is a dream. S1 is an apple maniac and has talked about it and shown me his I-touch and it is wonderful. I may have to work a little deal with him :) See if either provider will let you use one for a few days...bet they will. :)

UT OH... I know how your addicted to your computer... sure it won't be a "crack berry" ... I'm afraid to get one, although I've looked into a BB as it's the same plan on Verizon and easy with the family plan... I just know me and I'll not be able to ignore an incoming email... probably good for your business... keep me posted, interested to hear what wins!!!!

I LOVE my iPhone and have decided I could never live without it. Texting, e-mail, internet, blogging, pictures, maps, driving directions, I am sure I don't yet know all there is to use on this little beauty. It is truly a little mini computer and phone. A fabulous fabulous piece of equipment.

Patty,
My boss has an iPhone and swears by it. He needs to be available 24/7 and this allows him not to miss a beat. Photos are incredible.

I love my blackberry :)

I just checked and the smaller totes were on sale for 41 dollars and the large were 51 dollars... They're so cute!

Do you have nails?? I ask because the I touch is a problem for me because of my nails. It requires heat sense and my nails get in the way. The blackberry; however has really tiny keys and my nails present a problem there too! My husband says, just get rid of the nails! NO WAY! I got an AT&T phone - impression. Its a touch screen, but doesn't need heat sense like the Iphone, I can use my lovely nails!

We have iphones, too. The girls have Blackberries and told us to get iphones when we were upgrading.

It does take awhile to get used to texting on them though--eventually you build up a vocabulary and it's much faster.
