I have to admit that the Iphone is too great of a device for me to have. I had to go back to my BlackBerry because of my Iphone addiction. One of the reasons I went to the Iphone was because I wanted a better multimedia experience and I got just that. It was so much better than what I was used to. The videos were amazing, ipod was great, youtube videos were the best I had ever seen on a smartphone, itunes is heavenly (I really gop into the podcasts), and the apps - oh my God the apps! To make long story short, I spent most of my time looking at my phone. Everything was just so much fun, I couldn't help myself. The Iphone couldn't be a business device because no one would get any work done. I didn't. The Iphone is so versatile and capable, I was able to find an excuse to use it for everything. I went back to the BB because I can handle my addiction with that device. A BlackBerry is like smoking marijuana for me. The Iphone is like heroin. The other good thing is, that I have a better messaging device now. That was the other thing that I can say the BlackBerry does better than the Iphone.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't like the BBs as much for messaging as I do the iPhone. Sure, there are deficiencies in iPhone messaging (can I please be allowed to add an attachment after starting an email rather than starting FROM the attachment [yes, I know, I can copy-paste, but an Add Attachment button would be nice]), but I never cared about BlackBerry Messenger and the email and SMS/MMS apps on iPhone are perfectly adequate - and not having to deal with the bloody BB OS's crazy hierarchy of pointless menu structures is nice.

Speaking of productivity or lack thereof..........I'd be happy if the federal government shut down for a few months, saving the U.S. tax payer billions upon billions of dollars.

Wow are you dumb, trolling is making a political statement on a forum about iphones. Next time you want to open your mouth make sure you know what you are talking about.

I agree! I love my iPhone and am totally addicted to it. Unlike you though, I don't think I'll ever want to buy another phone. I upgraded to my 3GS from the iPhone classic, and in maybe a year or two I'll swap this one for another iPhone - whatever version Apple comes up with next.
