    Depends....do you like Apple? Which BlackBerry are you looking at? Would you prefer a touch screen phone with a built in iPod? Then the iPhone. If you are looking for a more business phone then I would go for a BlackBerry. I have had both and I actually like the BlackBerry line better. Just my personal opinion.

    The iPhone and Blackberrys are 2 very different kinds of phones, as MC said. If you like a phone thats fast, and easy to use: The iPhone is awesome, and easy!

    But if you are going for more of a buisness phone, then the Blackberry is certainly better.

    Blackberry has a mini qwerty keyboard. So I guess if you're a texter, that would be better.

    I too use a blackberry and I am quite happy with it. It's easier to text on it and the pearl version (the one I have) is small enough to fit just about anywhere. My cousin owns the regular blackberry and has had no problems with it ever. I, and my cousin, have both dropped our blackberries in water and got them to work again but a friend of mine dropped his iphone in water and had to get the whole thing replaced.

    Lol no I didn't not say they worked fine, I said we got them to work again. I hope you don't throw water on your phone but if you do mail me and I'll explain how to get it working again. But with the iphone it had to be sent back and it was the same amount of water damage.

    I'd go for the iPhone, its very interactive and fun to use^^ Touch screen is the future :D
    blackberry is more for business types who don't care bout music so depends on you.

    I am inclined to say iPhone.
    I played with one at the Apple Store last night, and have been trying to figure out a way to afford one ever since.
    They are just so feature packed!

    I love my iphone. BlackBerry phones look so bulky to me now with all their buttons.
    The iphone's app store makes it so easy to use the phone for everyyyything from tetris to tuning to translations.

    I'd choose BlackBerry mainly for the fact that it's a lot easier to type, and utilizes a stylus. I'd hate having to use my fingers for the iPhone, and getting it all smudgy all the time. Plus I have big fingers which makes it hard to navigate >_>

    There is one thing that I hate about the Iphone: Like everybody has one nowadays. I prefer something more unique, but's that's just a personal thing I guess :p

    while I dont have either, I do have an ipod touch, which is basically an iphone that can't make calls. I love it. At first I didn't think a touch screen keyboard would work well with me, but I got used to it very quickly. I've never used a blackberry, so I don't have an opinion on that.

    I have a Blackberry Pearl, and I think it's great.
    I've had no problems with it other than it can be a little bit slow sometimes.

    Which are cheaper?

    They are both overpriced but essentially they both are as good as each other.

    I would only buy either if i was getting a great deal.

    I prefer Iphone over the blackberry mainly because it has more features and the blackberry is kinda for business people
