Thread: iPhone 2.0 coming soon???

Here's a pic of the BB 9500.




Verizon is good at one thing, and that's crippling phones. I can't stand their UI or the crap they fill their phones. This phone better come out on other carriers.

I have always hated Blackberry until the Pearl came out. I tried it (making the jump for a Motorola streak of about 6 phones) and loved it. However, I'm really interested in the new Xperia from Sony Ericsson.

As for the iPhone I just don't see myself getting one. I don't trust Apple to get the email server right, I'm not crazy about the touchscreen keyboard and I don't want my phone to be THAT BIG. Hell, a regular size BB is too big for me and it is much smaller than iPhone.

What are your email needs? I came from a RIM Pearl and Nokia N73 before switching to an iPhone. Believe me, I hated the keyboard for a few days. I almost returned it, but I gave it a chance and soon fell in love with it. It has its drawbacks, but give it a thorough test drive.

Barring a SDK failure, Apple will overtake RIM in NA phone sales within two years. Of course, this will include an implementation of a dedicated email server from Apple.

Bastards just killed any chance I had of reselling my old iphone for anything significant. At this price, I may as well give it away, or hold on to it until my contract runs out.

the 3g phone does look pretty nice though. Too bad they haven't fixed the missing MMS.

For my usage, I am not sure the $200+ upgrade plus the extra $10 a month will be worth the 3G. In my opinion, thats the ONLY significant difference between the new iPhone and the one I already own. I need more 'non-Apple' information on the new phone before I make a final decision.

The MobileMe has me intrigued. I can't wait for more information on it.

I can see Apple overtaking RIM in the consumer market, but Apple has no chance when it comes to the corporate/enterprise market, which is RIM's money maker.
