Intriguing. I may have to check it out and make the switch from BB.

They've been saying this for a while now. I'll believe it when I see it.

There is no way I am trading in my blackberry for an iphone!
Before it would even be an afterthought, they need to correct the battery issue and make it removable and replaceable.

also I wouldnt believe the hype. Verizon works on CDMA, the iphone is a GSM phone. The phone would have to be remade to accomidate this old technology. Plus Verizon spokesperson John Johnson said not even a month ago that there was no plan for Verizon to support the Apple mobile devices in the “immediate future”.

I use my phone a lot , and for work. One of my best friends switched from blackberry to iphone, he uses his phone less than me. He switched back to blackberry within 2 weeks b/c the battery was dead by noon every day. SO that 8 hours is bullshit if your a heavy phone user or business user, and you can't change the battery. Therefore the iphone is FAR inferior to the blackberry. I can work on my phone from 7AM to 7PM and the battery won't completely die. An d if it does, I can change it and be mobile within 20 seconds again.

I've listened to music, used the sirius app, the internet, watched movies, and make calls on mine for 12 straight hours and still had battery life left

You keep trying to sell that weak shit. That battery dies in 6 hours and has to be plugged in to charge, no battery swap, that is

My BB battery just died. 5 hours
This has never happened. It can go a couple days sometimes.

Maybe after you plugged it in last night the wire came loose and it never charged, I have done that by mistake before. I also have extra batteries. You can get them for like $3 on ebay.

Oh I won't either, I am staying with the Blackberry. If I had to I would still get the Android or the new LG before the Iphone anyway.
