    A lot of business customers travel intl so the blackberry is ideal for unl internet....

    Also, ATT can offer early upgrades and free blackberrys like candy but with an Iphone, unless you are eligible for a FULL upgrade or it's a new activation, you can't do shit about it....ATT will lose their contract if some rep does an early upgrade for an iphone...
    Right, so do you see any of business people switching over to iPhone anytime soon?

    I'm not denying the iPhone is the most popular, but they will never lock down the market.

    You do realize that Blackberry has been around a lot longer than the iPhone?

    Well yeah, businses custs are switching more and more when their contract dates are up so yes I do see that but ....you are right for now, until they offer the iphone for free, blackberry will still lead business customers and by the time Apple does offer them for free, I'm sure blackberry will have something more intense or somebody else will.

    I'm not knocking the iPhone by any means, I think it's a good product, although I do own a Blackberry.

    It's not so much a matter of Verizon picking up the iPhone, but rather Apple letting Verizon carry it.

    My Verizon contract is up & I'm getting the New IPHONE on Friday. Verizon is atleast a year away from being able to carry it & that's if ATT doesn't extend their exclusive agreement with Apple.

    yea downloading now. I also broke my screen last weekend at spac (just the glass touch sensitive part, not the actual lcd) so I ordered a new glass screen, the correct tools, and the correct iphone adhesive tape to fix it myself. All that was around 65$, compared to 150$ from apple. Luckly I have done a few things like this before, fixed a few ipods, built my own pc's so I don't think this shoudl be too hard of a fix. Not to mention the website i bought this stuff from gives free instructional video's on how to do it.

    Verizon should be carrying Iphones relatively soon. I read an article about how if Verizon carried the Iphone, Apple would sell 2-3x more Iphones because Verizon is such a larger carrier.

    Agreed. I would bet Verizon will have the iPhone within a year, too. Another shitty feature is that the iPhone will try to latch onto a 3G network, regardless of how weak/strong the signal is. So, if you are in an area with a very strong EDGE signal, and a very weak 3G signal, you are forced into using the 3G (unless you turn off your 3G radio in iPhone's settings).

    I've downloaded and installed the 3.0 update and all seems well. I have a 1st Gen so I'm planning on getting a new one in the coming weeks. And I'll be making a special trip to an ATT store to rip the poor sales dude for why his company sucks so much that they can't have MMS ready to go on launch date.

    And yet I saw today that ATT's changed the upgrade policy to allow more people to pay the lower price for the new version. Why you ask? Well obviously b/c they can get more customers/$$$ that way. Yet to activate MMS (which won't require additional charges) seems to be on the back burner. Along with tethering.

    Almost fucked shit up, I let the phone update while i was gone, my computer turned off after the update but before the phone was reactivated so my passcode screen did not appear....therefor i couldn't even get into my phone with itunes. I shut it off and plugged it in, it went through without a passcode and activated so it's all gravy.

    and yea, that mms is bs.
