Forgive my ignorance on this new generation of smartphones, but I need some advice.
I am on my 5th Blackberry. I am frustrated by their poor reliability (nearly all have been replaced under warranty) and the lack of decent web
browsing (I got an iPad instead).
But for work, I am addicted to the 'live' email feature, its about the only thing that Balckberry do well. Is there another smartphone
that does the same? If there is then I will be another to say "switch"
If you have a decent email server at work (Exchange) then the iPhone is a surprisingly good phone. Mail is pushed to that and instantly too. If I have
my iPhone on my desk and Outlook open, the mail can often appear on the phone half a second before Outlook, it's bloody quick!
I used to perceive the BB as the business phone but honestly the iPhone is better. If you have BES then it's a better device than without but
the iPhone supports calendars out of the box, shared mail lists, address books etc...all with no extra software or hassle.
The service outage last year really dented my image of BB. I'm not a complete iPhone convert but the BB will be a lot lower on this list come
upgrade time.
