I'm a current BB users and I just bought my parents an iPad 2 for a retirement gift. I'm going to play around with it and help them set it up and May be I will jump the ship too since more and more users are doing it. My company switched from BBs to iPhones and many other companies even government agencies are doing so. I am becoming greatly concerned with RIM and it's either sink or swim for them this year with BB10. I'm pulling for them not because of the sole reason that I have a BB but mainly because competition is good for consumers. I had the iPhone 4 for a couple weeks when VZW first got it and I returned it due to certain things I didn't like about the OS. However, OS 5 answered a lot of my dislikes. I hoping OS 6 will do so as well.

I feel like I'm the opposite of everybody in this thread. I want to try out the BB9930 because it's a really nice phone. I may use my upgrade for it since I already have a 4S.

I agree the playbook is terrible! I had it 1 day and returned it. Switched from the 9900 to a 4s and a new iPad and will not be looking back. I don't know why I waited so long.

Well I officially switched. :)

iPhone 4S -White 16GB

Checking out iPad surely this year, more likely fall time.

Still keeping PlayBook as my 19 month old loves it. lol.

On the block to see what BB10 brings, but I have tried many flavors of Android, but I want simple and I think the iPhone will do that. Only time will tell.

I had the bold 9930 and iPad 2, and thought I would try the 4s. Good combo with the iPad, but missed a lot of things about my blackberry bold 9930. (not the camera, though!!!). Went back to a torch (way better camera than the 9930, but not as good as the 4s!!!) love it, and now, for me, my iPad and torch go everywhere. Perfect combo for me.

Welcome. You'll be happy with your decision. I did the same thing 2 years ago. I still use all the BlackBerry products for work and they are good, but Apple products are better.
