I don't think this will be a BlackBerry killer. I do think it is a great option, but calling the BlackBerry dead is a stretch.

Motorola/Palm are gonna die. MSFT will just use its influence to push users into using its product. Apple will just say their product is the best since sliced bread and deflect questions of security/scalability and RIM will be slow to change as always.

Did i offend everyone enough?

I do not feel sufficiently offended at this time as it is a time when I'm not sufficiently offended.
On the other hand, i have 4 fingers and a workable thumb, as opposed.
Good luck with your iphone.

I'm more interested in the reading of the will. Who do you think gets the as-yet unreleased devices?

It seems that there are still some issues for Apple to work out.

MacNN | iPhone OS 2.0 available: issues, first look

MacNN | MobileMe problems continue, upset customers

MobileMe Launch Issues keeps Service Unavailable [Update] - I4U News

Personally, I prefer a BB to any other phone. Mainly from the security standpoint. Although I am no longer a corporate BB user, I still enjoy all the security and options I get. If I want to browse the internet, I will just tether my BB to my laptop (or just use my BB itself). If I want to listen to music, I will just use my iPod(or just use my BB itself).

I think Apple rushed things a bit to get their new phone and system out. And the upgrading of old phones to the new OS is bricking some phones. Time will tell.

However, I don't think the BB will ever die, there are way to may users who enjoy the convienance and security.
