Should I exchange my Bold for an iPhone? Anyone else here gone either way?
Any of you guys gone to an iPhone from a BB, or vice-versa?
I was on VZW for years, then got excited about the Storm, then got seriously let down when it came out. So disappointed, in fact, that I went to AT&T. I was between the iPhone and the Bold, and I went with the Bold. I like it a lot, though I've been contemplating exchanging it for the iPhone. It's a tough call.
Here is a list I made last night of personal pros/cons with the two devices.
iPhone
____________
music sync/8gb
better gmail imap integration (doesn't need gmail java app)
looks cooler on screen (UI)
3rd party gcal sync that works properly (Spanning Sync)
built in contacts sync
on screen keyboard
Native To Do app that syncs with ToodleDo (my task manager)
pinch zoom in gmaps, etc.
apps store
no mms
no video
Bold
___________
physical keyboard/trackball
faster to operate
looks cooler physically
can do mms
can do video
free gcal/contacts sync (with Google mobile app--somewhat buggy)
gmail/imap works but only with Google App
built-in IMAP is generally busted if you aren't a corporate exchange user; only unidirectional deletion sync and no IMAP folder browsing (very disappointing)
bluetooth won't work with Mac
Can't use as a drive on Mac
Mac support generally busted
no app store
I tried to make the list insightful and not just the obvious stuff. If anyone has any thoughts or feelings regarding switching or having already switched one way or the other, please share. Thanks.
