Deathmatch: BlackBerry versus iPhone

Galen Gruman used an iPhone 3G and a BlackBerry 9000 Bold for a month and compared email, calendars, contacts, applications web browsing, GPS, and keyboards.

It’s time to bury the BlackBerry. A revolution in its time, thanks to its ability to provide instant, secure e-mail anywhere, the BlackBerry has become the Lotus Notes of the mobile world: It’s way past its prime.

Why choose a BlackBerry? Security. Email. Keyboard. Otherwise…

BlackBerry is yesterday’s mobile messenger, way past its prime and heading toward retirement. The iPhone is light-years ahead of the BlackBerry on almost every count. RIM should be ashamed.

Amen.
