Blackberry Bold or Iphone 3G?

Friday is here and I decided to post something a little different.  My Friday Random blog post is about the iphone.  Should I get one or not?  I am up in the air on this one.  I love technology and I am very impressed with this latest gadget from Apple.  Apple is usually the leader in technology.

One of the major problems as a Realtor I am having with this is; how it will affect my business.  I am a current blackberry pearl user which to be honest I like but I am not over the moon about, I think I would prefer the blackberry curve.  I hate typing on the pearl.  When I purchased this phone it was brand new on the market and I kind of got sold on how it was the next best thing. When RIM (research in motion) comes out with the new Blackberry Bold, I am going to have to take a look at both phones before I make any decisions.  I love the idea of the iphone but from talking with friends about it they keep telling me the same thing, the typing function sucks.  Can I get over this? I am not sure.  One of the things I like about the blackberry is my ability to stay in touch with me clients via text or email when I am away from my computer.  A lot of my clients are blackberry users and it makes things a lot easier and communication is a breeze.

So what to do?  I am on the fence, I think I may get my friend who works for AML, the authorized dealer for Rogers in Atlantic Canada to take me through the ins and outs of both phones and then I will make my decision.  I will keep you posted.  Until next time if you’re looking to buy or sell I can be reached on my BLACKBERRY PEARL (for now) at 488-0012.
