Storm 9530 or Bold 9000?

[ajtouchstone]

Good morning.

I am a System Administrator of an insurance company. I carry a BlackBerry connected to a corporate BES to handle my e-mail. Here's my dilemma.

My carrier is AT&T. I have an unlocked Storm 9530 that I previously used on VZW as my personal phone. Recently, our IT department acquired a few Bold 9000 devices turned in by recently terminated employees. I can use one of these phones if I want. Here are my pro's for either choice.

Unchangeable:
Carrier - AT&T
OS 5.0 (both devices)

Storm 9530:
Large touchscreen that I love and type with very easily
Bragging rights for having a Storm on AT&T
3.2MP camera (I take inventory pictures with serials visible)

Bold 9000:
3G UMTS connection enabling simultaneous voice/data connectivity
WiFi connection giving stronger data connectivity

So what do y'all think? Which device should I use?

So you own the storm and your company wants to give you a bold? Take the bold so you have both and you can swap when you want. The 9000 is a nice device. Use it for a week or so and see if you like it.

Ownership really isn't an issue here. I own the Storm and the Bold is technically owned by the company but it is "off the books" which means they don't care about who owns it. My boss just cares that I am accessible via e-mail, which both devices will do quite well.

I have now voted. Even though i have never used a 9000

As your BFF, I think you need to try the Bold for the WiFi and because you are just geeky enough to want to try ALL of the BlackBerry models if at all possible. <3

Hi BFF! I'm glad to see you finally posted on Crackberry! But you need to update your profile as I know you don't have your Curve anymore! <3

I'm with Collin, grab the Bold, use them BOTH swap off periodically.

..agreed..

Bold, hands down.

Bold is a better device by a long shot in my opinion
