iPhone kills Blackberry? Really!!??
when att/apple dropped the price in the 3g model, i seriously evaluated moving all of our windows mobile / exchange clients over to iPhone/ATT away from Verizon.

i spent 3 days using my wife's iPhone with exchange client.

it is TERRIBLE. i can't see how any real corporate user would ever consider giving up a blackberry or a windows mobile device for an iPhone.

the exchange email client is gutted. no tasks? come on!! no multiple address books? seriously?!?!?

NO KEYBOARD??? the iPhone keyboard is 'ok' but anyone who really uses their phone in this capacity would never use that junk. maybe it would work for quick responses... but i found it very frustrating.

i think iPhone is a great device. but it obviously is targeting consumers... music fans... the facebook crowd....LOL.

a year ago, i might have agreed with the idea that it was a 'killer' of anything. now i just see it as a gateway device. it's the phone that TEACHES people that they can do more with their phone than take pictures of their kids and pets.

fast forward a year and now when i see people flipping their phone into landscape mode and watching you tube videos... i just think "haven't you got any real work to do?"

bottom line. iPhone=Toy. WM and BB=Tools.
