iPhone,BlackBerry Faceoff!

Hello folks, just read a piece on TechCrunch and I thought it would be perfect for this blog. They made a side by side comparison for the iPhone and the new BlackBerry 8820.


The results may surprise some, I know that many business really really want to get an iPhone just for its sleek and sexy showoff, not to mention the best iPod ever made.
But at this time the Blackberry, especially the new 8820, is just better for business use. With its email friendly approche towards Microsoft Exchange Server, and lets face facts most business runs of Microsoft Exchange Server for their emails.







Here are the findings in a nutshell:

• The BlackBerry 8800 possesses GPS, which makes Google Maps much more useful, especially for turn-by-turn directions
• The iPhone lacks basic cut and paste capabilities
• Despite Apple’s reputation for superior user interface design, the BlackBerry possesses keyboard shortcuts that make navigation around and between applications a breeze
• The BlackBerry’s phone quality is better than the iPhone’s
• The Safari browser is certainly more stunning than the BlackBerry’s primitive browser, but the iPhone seems to load even text-only pages more slowly than the BlackBerry over the EDGE network
• The BlackBerry possesses a general contacts application that makes contacting people by any given method more convenient
• The battery runs out faster on the iPhone simply because it is used for more tasks. This makes it less reliable for when one must take the device somewhere overnight without the opportunity to recharge.
