The Iphone is much better at surfing the internet and watching videos. Webpages usually look like they would if you were on a computer instead.

The Blackberry is easier to use and easier to type with since it has a keyboard. Web browsing isn't as good.

I hear alot of complaints about the AT&T network and how it caused people to ditch their Iphones. I think Verizon is about to make the Iphone available, so I would go with them if you want one.

Iphone has more accessability, more applications, more accessories.

I have had AT&T for 15 years- back when it was AT&T- then changed to Cingular- and now back to AT&T. I have never had any problems what so ever with their service, or customer service. I will likely never change carriers. But yes Verizon will get the Iphone starting next month.

The iPhone is better for fun, and the Blackberry is better for work.

^^^This. I have never used a Blackberry, but use an iPhone and an iPad all the time. They work great for my job, but teaching is not really "business."

I know a lot of iPhone users who are required to keep a Blackberry on them for work in the more traditional business field.

I wouldn't get rid of my iPhone at this point because I'd miss the apps and games too much, but I HATE texting on this thing! My thick fingers will never enjoy touchscreens the way they were meant to be used. If Apple would come out with a version with a physical keyboard for texting/emailing it would be perfect.

Get the droid that has the slide-out keyboard. You will never go back.
