iPhone is much better than BB

Blackberry used to have one advantage, its ability to connect to a Blackberry enterprise server and receive Lotus Notes email from a corporate server. Well that advantage has gone away, If you use Lotus Notes 8 the Domino Web Server now supports Safari Blackberry Enterprise server no longer needed. If you perfer a client. Just google, Lotus Notes Iphone Client you will see that IBM is producing a client for the iPhone.

As Mentioned in earlier posts, you can use VPN, VNC, 5250, 3270 apps to be fully connected to your enterprise from the iphone.

As for the Battery..
I do have issues with the Battery, however you can get a $10 external pack that uses 2 AA Batteries in a emergency.

As for Single Carrier..
You can use any GSM Carrier, Buy it unlocked.
If you want a Discount, you will have to sign a contract to use ATT. But it will work on the others.

The iPhone is Far Superior, calling it a toy shows ignorance. It is a Unix based Computer in a form factor that fits in your pocket.
