Iphone 3GS vs. Blackberr Bold 9700?

Simple as.

Throughout all areas, looks, functionanity, battery life, ect.

I am dithering between the two and would like someone to help persuade me to one or the other.

(BTW) i was looking at the 16gb 3gs.

Anyone own one of these phones?

 

Nice summary there, thankyou.

 

I went for the 3GS 16 gb.

And havn't looked back!

It really is a great "smart" phone!

I just use it as a phone generally but cant help myself playing on the hundreds of free apps out there. Really does put a smile on your face.

 

iphone. theyre talking about the ability to multitask with the iphone 4.0 update.

i would hate to see the battery life with mutlitasking on that thing!

The battery, for me, is the only con.

 

iPhone for sure! The on screen keyboard is so easy to use, and I'd have to use a pen or something to work the tiny little keyboard on the Blackberry. The screen size also makes a difference, I've taken to reading my email on the 3GS and turning it sideways makes it so clear. The larger screen also helps with the GPS feature.

The apps are also amazing and endless. There are a seemingly unlimited number of very useful apps and an equal number of useless but fun in a nerdy way apps. There is a level, currency converter, dictionary, translator, compass, several money management apps, SpeedTest has an app and so does PhotoShop. There are apps that are just too silly to keep on the phone, but worth checking out and all the ones I've mentioned are free apps.

I also really like the podcasts on the iTunes store, these are also free. There are so many it is tough to choose but "I have CURRENT GEEK", "Querks and Quarks", and a few "Old time Radio" podcasts that I subscribe to.

For me it's the iPhone hands down.
