It's time to upgrade my phone after 2 years with the same handset. So which is better, ignoring pricing plans etc, Apple iPhone 3GS, or the Blackberry Bold?

iPhone's mail app can link multiple email addresses that way you can have your work email and your personal email in the same place

plus iPhone is a kick ass ipod

and with landscape mode on 3.0 its just as easy as buttons to type

bold rapes the iphone. ive had both, my i phone was a piece of fuckin shit. my bold is so convient, it has a growing app store, had copy/paste way before the 3Gs. plus BB messenger is a plus if you have friends with blackberrys. and the leather backplate is baller as fuck, wont scratch like the iphone.

bold is easily 10 times better than the iphone. it will take a couple days to figure it out, but its worth it.

Bold. Sure it's fun to have the nifty touchscreen and play a virtual piano. But then you realize that you're never going to use any of those apps and if you do your battery lasts a tremendous 2 hours.

Buttons are far more reliable and fast and you don't need to charge the bold twice a day.

With the new update you can also type in landscaping mode for everything which is sideways which makes it alot easier, the apps are awesome, and my sister has the bold and has had multiple problems where she has gotten new phones (3) and currently can not call people on her bold for some reason, i have the 3G no s but i still think its a great phone and my aunt who has never had a phone before got the iphone and has no troubles with texting emailing her calendar, etc and she is a principle which shows the ease of all the features.
