    I meant he might be getting one soon since he dove into a pool w/ his curve in his pocket, as a replacement if it doesn't work. Of course, being me, he won't get to use it since i'll have my dirtly little hands on it

    I love my iPhone 3g. Your dad should try it out before he gets it to make sure he likes it.

    okay... well it will be more like 2 days now, so I'll probably take him to AT&T tonight and make him try it.

    Update... Went to AT&T tonight and he's so-so on it. He will decide tomorrow, as he's not sure about the on screen keyboard

    I love it... I also love my BB. I will list the reasons for the iPhone...




    Text/SMS... Great threaded messaging, even better than the treo.

    Email... This is what true HTML should be.

    Voicemail... On my BB, I used to have the box full as most of the times I know who sent me a message and what they said. On the iPhone, usually under 3 or 4 as I am able to just delete right from the voicemail app. I also love the fact that I don't have to go in the order that they came in.

    Browser... As this article proves, worlds ahead, just a bit closer now with the Bold's browser. I also love having tabbed browsing like Firefox/Safari.

    MobileMe... 20 times better than what BIS offers. I take a pic, I upload it to my MobileMe account (20 gigs of storage) and delete. Contacts/Calendar push... forgot about it. I have a friend who is helping me look up appointments for apartments. She would just add it to my calendar on my MobileMe account and it's instantly on my iPhone while I travel with the address that I can hit and locate in the Maps application.

    App store... Wow. Applications are just coming in left and right.

    Games? Wow multiplied by 2. All touch and has great games.

    Storage?... Not just 16GB of storage for media/files, but also for applications. I've already download over 25 apps and no slow downs what so ever. On my BB, I kept about three 3rd party apps due to precious space. (Opera Mini, Twitterberry & Telenav) Even after a while I took Telenav off.

    iPod... Although I don't use this portion... for those who love watching movies or listening to music, this is awesome.

    Tons more stuff, not enough time. Even after all of this, I'm not saying either device is better than the other, but for me, it's as perfect of a device as it's going to get. Once again, not perfect, but the most for my needs/wants.

    I'm not an apple person, at all...but I have to say I love this phone. If I didn't use the PIN system so much I would have cut off my blackberrry already. Just wish I didn't feel the need to carry around my usb cord all the time.

    you know, sprint's unlimited is $99. and I can very easily operate it with one hand. I've read really good reviews about it. so okay, you are entitled to your opinion. Not sure why one wouldn't like it, especially after all these positives.

    No warranty? There is a standard 1 year warranty. You can even purchase another year (AppleCare).

    Your other points are purely subjective as I text better on the iPhone than I did with my Curve, easily could drive and text one handed (although I don't) and find the email to push great with Yahoo! and my Me account as well as beautiful HTML emails.
