Both rape you with their data plans. Atleast the iphone has a decent browser.

I have the BB curve 8900 on orange.

£24.95 p/m free unlimited internet and streaming, 500mins unlim texts and its insured. iPhone tariffs are SHIT! get a BB, they win hands down, quick for browsing and pretty shit hot for almost everything else.

Also, If you want another model, have a look about for the new Nokia N98, I'll be getting it when its out, I think around July/August, that phone looks AWESOME!

iPhone standuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurdddddddd, man I would be LOST without it. The thing does everything for me. Plus it's fucking SICK for multimedia, streaming sets of getdarker, the games are stupid PSP style.

You're all wrong. the Nokia 5800 is the real badman phone. I've been an avid Sony Erricson user for time now, but switching up to the Nokia is a full on winning technique. It's got a better camera, better battery life, you can use bluetooth to send shit ot other people, you can mass messege people and the touch screen is a doddle to use. I was put off by it, but it's so easy to use. Also, if your phone rings, pick up up, put it back down face up and it silences the call!! And depsite skating with it, keeping keys and change and all kinds of shit in my pocket, I've yet to be able to scratch the screen (antiscratch or some shit)

Oh and 8gig memory stick as standard and a 3.5 headphone jack. And TV out. And a sick driving game that you control the car like a wii. Oh and you can control your PC with your phone via Bluetooth.

I promise I dont work for Nokia. baaahahahaa!

i think iphone is easyer to handle if you use it like apple is giving it out.
the screen is just lovley for to work on it.

The blackberry is more flexible, specially for windows user.

I dont have either but I have an Ipod Touch and the browser is amazing.

As for the keyboard the touch screen is the most intuitive thing I have ever used, and believe me I was VERY sceptical.

Once you try the keyboard and use it a few times its abosolutly perfect!

nokia ftw.
The sar rating for the iPhone 3G is pretty decent actually. It's not a Samsung but it's less than a Blackberry.

SAR rating(W/kg) digital

iPhone 3G = 1.38 (with 3G on, without 0.974)
RIM BlackBerry Curve 8330 (Sprint) = 1.54

I've used a QTec, Blackberry & iPhone and although in the beginning I was very sceptic with the iPhone release now I wouldn't know what do without it (cliché).
It's just soooooo user friendly (unlike Windows mobile & Symbian). Everything works out of the box. The interface is fast & easy, syncing is easy, it looks good (;)) etc.

Ofcourse there are some flaws in the 3G version. No video, shit camera quality, no copy paste, no flash, unable to run programs in the background, no mms. Actually there are a lot of flaws :D BUT all of the things I mentioned will be available as from next week when the iPhone 3Gs and OS3 are available.

I believe both phones are good, it just depends what you're looking for. I was looking for an easy to use smartphone which is foolproof. It can do less than the Blackberry but it does everything with more ease. And that's the big difference I believe.

Look at me, I sound like a fanboy :lol:


edit: I added cNet's sar ratings
