I'm making the switch as well. But I think I'm going to keep my Blackberry just for BBM...if that's possible. I do A LOT of business using BBM.

Moved from bb bold 9700 to i4! I will miss bbm and unsurpassed push notifications but login my iPhone so far
Well I got my iPhone but I honestly miss my Bold 9700 I miss the battery life because I could use that sucker all day for 15+ hours and still have 50-60% battery life.
I also miss BBM alot and the instant e-mails I don't know if I can get over it but I'll try. The browser thing doesn't really phase me because that's what computers are for. E-mails are nice though just wish it was instant. It just seems the BB was the more useful device and the iPhone is more dazzling to look at. I will probably hold on to iPhone for a lil while and then pick up the Bold 9800 when its released that should fix the browser thing and I'll have all that functionality I miss back.
I don't believe there is a way to move SMS to and from either device.
I have switched from BB 9500 to iPhone 4. I knew this day would come. In fact, when I initial purchased my BlackBerry storm, I informed my supplier that I was not prepared to commit to the BlackBerry service for an extended time period. I did that because I knew that at 1 point or an additional, I would be creating the transition to iPhone. Nevertheless, the initial iPhone to come out after I started using the storm was the 3Gs. As impressive as that additional speed was, I was not going to give up on the BlackBerry email experience for a little much more processing power. So, I waited.
Then came the iPhone 4 and I now plan on ending my long lasting relationship with my BlackBerry. Nevertheless, before I break up with my storm, I will say to it ?It?s not you, it?s me?. I loved the storm, no scratch that, I really like the storm. Nevertheless, it has one too numerous shortcomings for a heavy user like myself and with the new iPhone out, I see no reason to stick this out.
welcome do the dark side, I am from Crackberry as well you'll find this forum to be a lot more friendly and trolls are almost unheard of here, there are the occasionals, but there are in any forum.
Hope you love your i4 as much as I do mine
Well so far I DEFINITELY am!
Hi all
I'm brand new in here, in fact I came here via the link from CrackBerry.com
I have just taken receipt of my very first iPhone (iPhone 4) having had a BlackBerry 9500 Storm for the last 2 years on Vodafone UK (was tied to a 2 year deal).
It's been a love/hate relationship really. I loved my Storm out of the box..! I loved how easy eMails were handled, and integration with Outlook was fab. I had some great apps on it too (some I've found for my iPhone as well already)
I hated the UI and eventually installed a theme to mimic the Leopard OS from the Mac which improved my user experience 10,000%. I hated having to pull the battery every day to keep it running. Lastly I hated that it just got more and more "buggy" and needed unofficial OS leaks to make it work anything like it should have from the box. Looked at the latest BB (Torch) but just didn't take to it.
In the end, the unit just became too sluggish and crashed too often for me to persivere. I jumped carrier to Orange UK, and picked up an iPhone 4 for the same deal as I was previously on and suddenly I have a unit that does EVERYTHING it promised to be!
Really sad to see the BB go in some ways, but excited with my iPhone 4 too.
All in CrackBerry were a fantastic bunch, and I hope that this will be a similar experience in TiPB..!
