Members ComingApart Posted August 30, 2008 Members Share Posted August 30, 2008 I haven't used any of the newer Blackberry's, but my Iphone is the best one of the ones i have tried.I have no complaints about it's browsing capabilities. A nice, simple interface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TheEsupremacy Posted August 30, 2008 Members Share Posted August 30, 2008 Yeah, if you have AT&T service, I'd get an iPhone. Browser is the best there is for cellz IMHO. Blackberry's second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members code_blue Posted August 30, 2008 Members Share Posted August 30, 2008 Hmmm I don't know if any mobile device has regular Flash installed, but that would be a great feature. iPhone probably still looks the best, there is the new Blackberry coming out called the Bold, but the screen is kinda small for video and it's $100 more than the iPhone with a data plan thats also probably twice as much.

Members blargh Posted August 30, 2008 Members Share Posted August 30, 2008 I tried a blackberry (not sure which model), it was pretty much unusable for me. The iPhone actually feels kind of like a proper computer browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members EvilMeow Posted August 30, 2008 Members Share Posted August 30, 2008 I LOVE my Blackberry, and prefer it to the iPhone for business and email, but it can't hold a candle to the iPhone's browser, even if you use Opera instead of the Blackberry browser.

Well my business relies more on internet browsing; logging into secure locations to check certain figures. I've heard with some SSL app you can have an FTP on the iphone.

Members Snax Panther Posted August 30, 2008 Members Share Posted August 30, 2008 I'm a phone whore, and go through phones way more often than any normal person ever would. The iPhone I had was WONDERFUL for browsing, but just didn't give me what I needed. I've used an N95, a Tilt, a Blackjack, an E62, an iPhone, and currently use a Q9H on AT&T, which is by FAR the best phone I've ever owned. With Windows Mobile 6.1, it's a winner. A lot of people don't like Windows Mobile, but for me it's perfect. Also, my priorities are like this: Phone Internet Music It simply has to be a good phone, and the iPhone is pretty much {censored} in comparison as a phone. But yeah, for internet, if that's your main priority, go iPhone and don't even think about anything else. I'm still considering a 2nd line just for an iPhone just for browsing.

Members punkicidal Posted August 30, 2008 Members Share Posted August 30, 2008 I have an HTC s720.. It's a piece of {censored}.. it runs Windows Mobile 6, which works quite well, even with Vista.. HTC phones are just {censored}ign garbage.. If you go with something like a Moto Q or something else with WM6, I'd go for that.. I'm in the process of getting a Blackberry 8330 currently.. Or for all you smartphone n00bs, the Curve.. Either way, WM6 is alright, HTC is {censored}. Get an iPhone or Blackberry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rayneman Posted August 30, 2008 Members Share Posted August 30, 2008 i got a dare, its pretty cool. but if i had the option of hte iphone i'd get that. I have a dare too. I think internet browsing is pretty good when you have the proper signal, all the music sites I go to are pretty quick. I really dig the VZ Navigator GPS thing and the V Cast stuff is great when I need to bust out cartoons for my kids if we're out to dinner or somewhere they might get bored. I'll probably get some form of blackberry next, assuming I stay with Verizon. My buddy has one of these Treo things that was astronomically expensive but is huge and doesn't seem to do nearly as much as my little Dare.

Members DeathMonkey Posted August 30, 2008 Members Share Posted August 30, 2008 I had an HTC Touch before switching to the iPhone. Windows Mobile is a bloated crash magnet. That {censored}ing piece of {censored} would crash if you looked at it funny. Hated it. If you have a Mac, iPhone is the only way to go. Period. If not, look for the new Crackberrys.

Members blargh Posted August 30, 2008 Members Share Posted August 30, 2008 What's wrong with the iPhone's phone? I don't really talk on the phone much, but still curious before dropping $1k a year on this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Snax Panther Posted August 30, 2008 Members Share Posted August 30, 2008 The Diamond. That {censored} won't be in the states for another 6+ months. Uh, what?Are you talking about the HTC Touch Diamond?2 of my coworkers use them.And the Pro will be out before Christmas, making the Diamond useless anyway.
