I've never seen the appeal in a $199.99 cell phone... I can get a DAMN GOOD ONE which will get better coverage and reception worldwide for $-50. Yes, that's NEGATIVE FIFTY DOLLARS. And the overall volume is only like 3cuinch more.

We'll see. Like I said, I love my Blackberry, and BES is the sh1t currently, but they need to step it up to compete with MS, especially since MS will basically be releasing a competing product to BES for free (Exchange 2003 SP2). RIM really needs to get their ass in gear and release the Blackberry Connect software for more devices (or is it the providers slowing down this process? Could never understand that).Originally posted by: new2AMD

Get used to "the bloat." Everything is heading towards convergence. Look at the (POS) Treos and how well they're doing. Hell, look at the new bberries compared to the older ones like the 957...picture viewers, color screens, etc.Originally posted by: gigapet

it wont really work out. PPL prefer the blackberry becasue they dont want the MS bloat.
right, but what I am saying is if MS pushes RIM, RIM will hopefully be inclined to keep improving their product which is good for us BB users.Originally posted by: gigapet

I'd say apple is winning because of marketing. You are right though, Blackberry OS is simpler to use than anything MS offers at the moment. Although, with a scroll wheel and an improved today screen, the same functionality of the ribbon menu can be had with this device (I see it has a scroll wheel).Originally posted by: gigapet
I agree. Its going to come down to what is easier to use. The ipod won the mp3 player battle becasue it had an intuitive interface and and a very small learning curve. MS isn't known for either.
