Default Storm, 9700 or New Iphone

Please Login to Remove!

Hi all

I have been waiting for the new I phone to come out before I make my decision, I am now in the last stages of my contract and allowed to upgrade.

Which do you think is best.

New I Phone
Android
Blackberry 9700
Blackberry Storm 2
Any other new one????

I am soon to be moving over to Macbook pro, but this is not a big issue.

I love the push email and bbm, I know no other phone can replicate this so what do you all think?
Are there any new blackberry's coming out soon?

The Iphone is a different product and offers a wide range of applications and abilities the Blackberry does not. Thatxxx8217;s is not to say it's better just different. Each user must decide how they will use the phone and what it offers to satisfy their individual needs. The Blackberry does have a lot of applications and they may fit your needs.
To answer the first question, Your on the Blackberry forums site, take a guess.

Really depends upon your definition of "best".

How do you plan to use the device? What are your needs and requirements? What other features would you say are "nice to have"?

The iPhone and MacBook obviously is the better combination. Android has some limitations when it comes to sync to Outlook and Exchange, the BB is the best email machine of the list.

As for new BBs, take a look at the rumor section.

this question can only be answered by you, and that would be what do you want crappy battery, touch interface, and a decent web browser go iphone, a communications tool blackberry, still in development or deep google roots go with android. each has its strengths and weaknesses, pick the product that suits your needs.

This is the most incoherent babble I've read since the Galvatron days.

Hey all.

Just to clarify it is not a contest between iphone and blackberry, I love my blackberry. But I cannot see the point at the moment in moving from 9000 to 9700. I have seen the 9700 and really prefer my 9000.

All my email accounts for business have now moved over to googleapps accounts and although push email is the best, you cannot have two way traffic between blackberry and googlemails, also the calendars work the same way.

I thought maybe the Nexus One would be good, but it lacks a couple of key features. Multi Keypad being one of them.

I don't want this to become an iphone vs ?BlackBerry® debate.

What do you all think?

Make a decision. Try it out and if you don't like it, give it back and get another to try.
