^ Again, entitled to your opinion. But it's not a "sucky" device regardless and if you gave it a fair shot, you might be surprised.
So there's no removable battery. But you don't need it to do battery pulls like a BlackBerry. And with upgrades available every 2 years, then what's the point? The battery isn't going to fizzle out in a year. And if it does, just take it to Apple. They have the best customer service.
No physical keyboard? Well, nothing you can do about that. But give yourself 2 weeks to get used to the virtual one on the iPhone. With autocorrect and keyboard shortcuts I type insanely fast on my iPhone! I typed this whole thing from my 4S.
Why do you need an SD card when you can buy a 64GB iPhone? That's pretty amazing. And you can buy extra storage from iCloud.
I'm not trying to sway you, Belfast. Just brining up some points.
Use the device that's best for you. But I honestly think that if you gave the iPhone4S a fair shot, you and others, would really enjoy it!
I don't use a BlackBerry, but I wouldn't ever say they "suck", by the way.Last edited by moiselles; 11-08-11 at 06:49 AM.
11-08-11 06:46 AM - i find it pointless to fight/discuss/compare smartphones. to me its a waste of time especially on CB. blackberrys users get insulted and always want to fight android or iphone users. im glad i switched from blackberry to iphone4s after staying faithful for 6 years to RIM. but never did i bash the iphone or android. and now i still dont bash the blackberry either. we have options colors and opinions. everyone uses what they prefer. only because she/he uses it doesnt mean its the best. i drive a BMW "the ultimate driving machine" i have friends who drive lexus/benz/acura/audi and swear by it...at the end its what you like. i drive BMW cuz they offer our company the best lease rates. the day benz or audi or lexus gives us better lease rates you better believe ill switch lol...trolls get a life11-08-11 08:42 AM
- I carry around 2 batteries. I was on a flight last year, where the guy was listening to music out of his iphone. At some point the battery quit and he put it away. My battery quit on my S2 also, as I was listening to music and playing games. However I just pulled out my spare and was back in business.^ Again, entitled to your opinion.

The iphone by no means is "sucky", I rather like it, as long as it's not mine. It doesn't work that way I do, I can't type on it, I don't like the native email and don't use any of the apps. And, this is a big one, each iphone in the family has to be reset regularly for whatever reason.
I can type faster on my blackberry, go through emails much faster. I just installed vlingo, gave it a shot. Confirmed my suspicion doesn't work in an office environment. However, I will see if I can hook it to my nav bluetooth later, which is a plus over Siri. Even if I can't I can't see using this, but it's nice that RIM offered for free.Last edited by i7guy; 11-08-11 at 10:56 AM.

I don't use a BlackBerry, but I wouldn't ever say they "suck", by the way., if some key features required by a user are missing from a device, that device does "suck" for him.
Batteries are for swapping, sd cards for recovering data in case of damage, keyboard, well, that's for typing as opposed to touching
The reason I never became an iphone user was the lack of voice dial, and not just voice dial but bluetooth voice dial. I needed to call people from within my motorcycle helmet via my bluetooth headset, that did make the iphone suck at the time.
That and push email pushed me towards Blackberry.
Anyway, this was a bit off topic, does Siri work trough a bluetooth headset/handsfree?
