I have been using Blackberry products for several years now, but recently, I succumbed to the pressure and marketing hype behind iPhone, and replaced my Pearl with a brand new G3 iPhone. At the beginning, I was totally impressed with my iPhone, and thought that it was the best gadget ever made. But after using it for a while now, I have started to see the difference between iPhone and Blackberry in a more practical way. Now, I am convinced that Blackberry is a much better communication device, especially if you use your cell phone mainly for business purposes. In this article, I am stating five reasons why I think that Blackberry is better than iPhone as a business tool.
