Does anyone think the Blackberry Tour is a better option than an iPhone?

1 Answer

Answer :

So far I love the the iPhone as a communication device. The keyboard is intuitive, the contact book is well organized and is researchable, email is easy, texting is a breeze, facebook could use work (the application, and m.facebook.com are better than iPhone.facebook.com). On the 3gs the voice control is so awesome… press and hold the button, say “Call John Smith, Mobile”, I have yet to have it accidentally call the wrong person (it even seems to work for all my friends to, no programing required.) . So, in summery, I mainly use it for communication and it is proving to be a pro at it.
