You're going to have to just do what you want, but here's what I think. I love my MacBook, it's a solid computer, and it runs as well today as it did when I first got it almost 2 years ago. A lot of people my age have MacBooks too, and almost all of those same people have iPhones. The consensus among my friends that own both, is that Apple should have a phone that has as few problems as their computers do. I personally own 5 BlackBerrys and have never had one melt, overheat, delete my address book or accidentally wipe the phone, or even have some inexplicable problem that requires me to return it (just small scrapes that drive me crazy so I exchange for a replacement device
). Many of these same friends have had an iPhone since it came out a few years ago, coming directly from a feature phone, which makes the level of awe and amazement even greater (imagine coming to an iPhone from a Razr), so they're as addicted as crackberry addicts are, but to the latest & greatest iPhone.
I just don't see the magic in the iPhone, as I do in the iPad, but that's just me. Sure a lot of the apps are more interactive on the iPhone, but then I ask myself "When am I honestly going to play all these games or use this stuff?"10-03-10 12:47 AM - +1 on what you said.You're going to have to just do what you want, but here's what I think.

OP probably hasn't tried the iphone yet. I had the first iphone before i realized i needed a hardware qwerty. He has to try the iphone out before he can decide what he really wants10-03-10 01:02 AM - I have 4 ppl in my office having the iPhone 4.. All i can see them in crying coz their battery dies out in 5 hrs on 3G and they are not even heavy users like us BB Geeks
They have ended up setting their mail retrieval to once in an hr and also keep their iPhones hooked onto the charging dock whenever they are at their seat. Trust me bro the 9700's battery is what your gonna crib for when you get the iPhone. I had the same itch a few months back but seeing the ppl in my office i always say m glad i din make the switch even though i am a big apple fanboy and i love my 13" MB and 15" MBP 10-03-10 01:15 AM - Agree with you 100%...
