I have a BB Bold 9650 from Verizon. My wife has an HTC Incredible. I wish I could find something that combines the best from both devices.

My BB excels at:

1. emailing and messaging
2. battery life
3. being a phone
4. physical keyboard

It sucks at:

1. web browsing
2. availability of cool apps
3. being a camera

Her Incredible excels at:

1. web browsing
2. awesome screen
3. smooth operating system
4. being a camera

It sucks at:

1. battery life
2. battery life
3. battery life
4. keyboard
5. emailing and messaging

I need to stick with Verizon, but I need something that gives me the best of both worlds with as few as possible of the cons.

Your 3 BB "Cons" should be fixed with this generation of phones. Well, cool Apps may not come until we get QNX on phones. Not really sure what you consider a useful App. To be honest, I haven't touched 90% of the Apps on my iTouch after I downloaded them. Most of them are just time killers, not a necessity.

Maybe you can root the Incredible and put a custom ROM on it and it will have better battery life? What about the iPhone?

The "better" battery life is still no match for that of a blackberry. And I wouldn't even say it's a match for an iPhone.

I had a Droid X that I rooted and romed and my battery life actually got worse. I do miss my time killers from time to time but my emailing and msging are so much better on my bb. I'm wondering if I should have held out for a bold touch but I do love the bold I have now.

battery life can be easily solved with any one of the many chargers..theres really no excuse for a dead phone nowadays
if you are on the road, plug it in, if you are at your desk, plug it in....


Im seriously considering a Droid based phone....

It seems that the only reason people are sticking to BB's ( myself included) is battery life and QWERTY keyboards, a full qwerty makes it soo easy to message and respond ( for those of us who hate touchscreen keypads)

With the use of swype or swift key I can pump higher WPM then I ever could on a bb.

Wait for the new bold 9900. That fixes most of your complains. I had numerous android devices, and they are just terrible. Process managment is ghoustly! I live windows 7 more then anything.
