In the past 24 hours, I used my curve to:

1. Using the GPS (external bluetooth puck), navagated my way to a house that I had never been to before
2. Took a picture of it (long story...I'm in the mortgage business).
3. Loaded songs onto it to listen to during my work out this morning
4. Oh...and sent and received 150 emails and had about 300 minutes of talk time.

So, I think the curve is getting closer to what most business users would "like" in a phone (vs.what the "need"). I've never played with the iPhone, but I agree with davistld01...different demographics, but there are a lot of people who won't have to switch from the blackberry platform now that they are making more consumer friendly devices. 2 years ago...pre 8700...I think you would have had a lot more fringe users make the change to the iPhone...not so much today...
