Default Bold or iPhone 3G

I'm torn here between the Bold and iPhone 3G. I really want the Bold but part of me says get the 3G. I have had both phones before I like both I'm leaning towards the Bold. Please convince me to get the bold.

Do what you feel like doing......see what you need a phone for....and then see which phone is better for those needs.
I had both...even the 3gs.....but for me it was the bold. Its the best for my needs.

Man there is a million threads such as this one. A simple search would prob do the trick.

Anyways, it comes down to what u use ur device for. Do u do a lot of emails and texting or do u like more media and games? I think that differentiates the phones.

Get a Bold. Better battery life and ability to multitask.

No, I won't. Get the phone you want. You've had both phones already. You know what they do. Who better to decide than...you.

Get the phone you want.

I realy don't know why people are comparing these phones. If you think of getting an iphone compare it too the G1 not the bold.
And the bold you could only compare it to othere BB's because there in a class of there own

Lots if other posts on this. Personally I have both. Nothing compares to the bold when using it for organizing. The iphone only recently got to the point of offering features that BB has had standard dor years. You cannot attach documents ti iphone. No email notification indicator. Battery life is shorter on I phone. In order to sync documents you have to do it wirelessly. I could go on. Iphone is a good weekend phone and I use it for school to read my assignments (bigger screen). Again goes back to how you use the phone. Good luck

Here is a good indicator of a quality phone.....With the berry you can insure it.

With the IPOS.....you are not allowed to insure it through AT&T....they are much to fragile. I am not an Apple guy, and I would not own a phone that is so fragile they won't allow insurance.
