If you really want a smart phone, forget about iPhone and get a BlackBerry. I can think of at leat 10 reasons Why the iPhone is STILL NO BlackBerry!

Blackberry has it all, starting with a REAL keyboard, real sincronization, Bluetooth and much more. Why, it even has Copy & Paste! (I am being sarcastic here).

Now, the new version of Blackberry is just around the corner, code named “Storm”. I can really wait to get my hands in this beauty.

Not much information on the new BlackBerry Storm, I only found a reference to it in Gizmodo

Staying Connected
With BlackBerry’s push email technology, your email will find you without having to initiate a connection. BlackBerry devices are designed to remain on and continuously connected to the wireless network, notifying you as new email arrives. In addition to the text, you can also receive and view attachments in a wide range of popular file formats, including Microsoft Office, Corel WordPerfect, and Adobe PDF.

Browse the web with the integrated, full-featured browser, which quickly and efficiently displays HTML pages as well as enables you to set up RSS feeds to stay connected to up-to-the-minute news and blog posts. And keep up with your contacts using a variety of instant message (IM) networks, including the integrated Blackberry Messenger as well as downloadable clients for Google Talk, Yahoo! Messenger, and Lotus Sametime.

For corporate users, the Curve delivers all the enterprise email and messaging capabilities you’ve come to expect. It’s supported on BlackBerry Internet Service, giving you access to up to 10 work or personal email accounts (including most popular ISP email accounts), as well as BlackBerry Enterprise Server, enabling advanced security and IT administration within IBM Lotus Domino, Microsoft Exchange and Novell GroupWise environments.

So, what does a Bored IT needs a Blackberry for? I started monitoring my servers (I am a control freak), but now I let my dedicated server provider do the dirty job for me. Still, the thing looks great on my desk!
