Why I Chose Blackberry vs. IPhone

Since I got my Blackberry, several folks have asked (in person, on Twitter, via e-mail) why I didn’t get the iPhone. It’s a pretty easy answer.

I wanted the phone for messaging, reading feeds, Twittering, and phone calls. Not listening to music, not video, not trying to make a fashion/social statement.

The Blackberry’s actual keys and messaging-oriented software beat what the IPhone has to offer, and the Blackberry was 25% of the price.

It was a pretty easy choice.
