Blackberry Bold vs. iPhone 3G steel-cage match
Boy Genius Report just published a detailed comparison of the Blackberry Bold vs. iPhone 3G.
The short version:
It really comes down to what you need more in a phone. While the Bold certainly has improved media and other consumer features, it really is a business device at the end of the day. The iPhone 3G is a consumer device that happens to play nice with a lot of corporations, and we honestly think you won't find many people dropping their BlackBerrys for an iPhone. They'll carry both as long as they can afford it.
