Which smartphone do you use? - Page 2

I'm using the first generation iPhone 8GB.

Funny story, I got it because my old Nokia flip phone fell out a car window haha.

I have an iPhone 3GS running iOS4 for personal use and a Blackberry Bold 9700 for business.

No comparison; the iPhone wins hands down on everything but contact sychronisation.

Blackberry 8520 and 9700

Currently chained to a Blackberry Tour but as soon as I can ditch the crapberry for something else I will. It's absolutely the worst smartphone, pda, even plain old phone I've ever owned. I miss my Treo 755p dearly. Alas, I was too cheap to leave Sprint for Verizon where I would have better coverage and more choices for phones.

My hatred of my crapberry led me to do some unscientific research and what I've found is that nearly every person who loves their Blackberry didn't own any type of smartphone or PDA prior to it. Everyone who hates their Blackberry owned some form of superior product prior to it. Too bad I didn't figure this out prior to getting locked into one.

I have used a Blackberry curve for a year and love it. Sprint has been my provider for more than 11 yrs. Before the Berry I carried a phone and a pda for internet conectivity that also included a photo album and my calendar and address book. I also carried a Zune for music and a small digital camera. Now I can walk out with my Berry, Visa and dirvers license and I am good to go. Well maybe I need a lipstick, but that is a girl thing.
Cheers,
Colby

Just bought my son an HTC Desire - Superb phone! Really impressed with it and every bit as good as an iphone. Might get myself one now!

I have the original Android G1 from T-Mobile and could live without it but not sure why.

I love using it on our laptop on long trips to be a wireless router and checking online for different things plus some of the aps make life much simpler.

I can hit a button and do a speech search for a location and have it come up in the maps ap while driving. I also can do the same voice speech to do searches for anything but while driving it's nice for it to come up with a phone number to click on instead of copying the number and then dialing it.

it has many other things I like about it, starting to play with the tapatalk feature to access forums (must see if this one's on there).

One thing I don't like? My age makes wearing glasses to see much of it a necessity.

I have recently switched from a BB Storm to iPhone 3Gs. iPhone is nicer to use, Both work well.

Right now I'm using a Blackberry Curve, but just ordered a new HTC Incredible Droid phone. THey're scheduled to ship early August, so I should have it soon and will hopefully be able to say I made a smart decision.
