Bah to iPhones. I've managed to crack the screen on mine after owning it for less than a month. Thankfully it is insured, but that probably means I'll get a refurbished one that someone else cracked the screen on...
I've never broken my BB.
Does it come with some $50 or $100 deductible too?
I'm keeping both. My now company has a policy that blocks any personal use on BlackBerries, and since the policy was introduced and I lost the ability to get my BIS email, it was quote annoying. However, I totally understand and respect the company's reasoning to keep business devices just that.
So I have my BB for work stuff, any my iPhone for everything else, and I am very happy with that...
Arent you the Admin? Create a 'special' testing policy!

Well, as of today, I have officially given up my iPhone. Gave it to my wife.
There is some cool user/consumer stuff in the iPhone. The browser can't be beat by anything on a handheld, even OperaMini. I use a mac so it is infinitely easier to get random music on the iPhone -- and movies for that matter.
But the Bberry... Instant push everything can't be beat. Facebook, Yahoo Go!, all of the Google Apps, BIS, etc. BBweather. Its all right there in a smaller package. The battery lasts significantly longer too.
The cameras on both are rated somewhere between meh and ass. So they aren't worth comparing.
To cover the shortcoming in the Bberry music capabilities, I'll carry my nano.
Other than that, its the pearl for me.
