I guess you missed the recent JD Power survey where they compared products for business users and Apple's iphone beat out RIM. As far as innovation goes, as much as I hate Apple and the iphone, that product has pushed the industry forward more than any other....ever. So even though I will never carry one, I am thankful that it came out because the selection of phones has become so much better since it's inception.

Well first of all, for all the AT&T/iPhone groupies...let's not forget that the almighty Iphone was offered to VZW first but VZW rejected the device b/c they didn't want to become Apple's b**ch. Of course the desperate ATT/Cingular...probably soon to be called Apple Wireless...broke the bank to get exclusivity of this device. None of you iPhone supporters talk about that reality tho. The iPhone is the only phone in AT&T's lineup that is even relevent...the Tilt sucked, the Blackjack is worthless and the LG Shine (?)...please AT&T..try again. Second, comparing the iPhone to a Blackberry is like comparing a Honda Accord to a BMW. They're two diff. class of devices. Let's be truthful for a minute...the iPhone pretty much kills every touchscreen phone in the aspect of web browsing and crystal clear resolution on the screen. But let's also be truthful about LG being the first brand to initiate a non-PDA touchscreen phone with the LG Prada. The Storm isn't meant to be a "iPhone Killer" tho...it's almost like Blackberry doesn't have to b/c the phone is so much more capable than the iPhone. But AT&T is getting the Touch Diamond Pro that may be the revival to their phone line-up. So that will make 2 devices. But to be honest with you...Apple Inc. does make a nice product. With the iPod Touch who needs an iPhone?

Your not to knowlegable are you. Hold on ill use easy terms for you... your dumb. its the number 1 mp3 player that plays YouTube, and happends to have a phone attached to it, granted the device is cool, but BlackBerry OPTOMIZES the buisness world, and the buisness world makes up 60-70% of all cell phone carriers. 90% of that 60-70% have a BlackBerry NOT an iPhone. The Storm will take its seat. It Will.

what are you talking about? your a retard the iphone is a business phone dipshit, more business consumers have iphones than teens. if a teen wants a loud touch phone, the get one for half an iphoness price, plus no data package. which an iphone requires.

have any of you ever even used an iphone b4? cuz you pretty much have it all wrong, it is a business related phone. AND a multimedia phone. thats why is supports microsoft exchange. second, this is APLLE we are talking about OFCOURSE they are going to make another generation of iphones, adn it will make up for the differences between the iphone 3g, and the storm.

it was new with the iphone, since its the first PHONE with an IPOD and a touchscreen ipod nonetheless.

ok first off, att has a BETTER lineup than vzw with the 4q phones coming up, second apple DID goto att first 3rd, att still has BB, icluding the BOLD. which looks awesome btw. i would seriously prefer a bold over a storm cuz it still has that amazing feature that i couldnt not live without, BUTTONS.

122. (unregistered) posted on 17 Nov 2008, 18:53

ok, first off, sorry, wrong, if you really checked out the lineups verizon is better. Second, wrong again, apple went to verizon first, I mean really dude, where are you getting your info? and 3rd.. did you just say the bold was better than the storm? I mean really? dude....... DUDE.....

103. (unregistered) posted on 15 Nov 2008, 13:26

instead of thinking you have to add a line see if you can get an early upgrade. 1yr early upgrades for all lines over 59.99.
