After a few days playing with my new BlackBerry Bold, I have to say that is absolutely crystal clear to me the reason why the iPhone 3G can’t beat it when it comes to use it for business.
Aside from all the features I like in the Bold and that would be worth an entire post, the main advantage towards the iPhone is the “always online” status and the multithreading capabilities. The ability to keep applications like email, Facebook and Google Talk active at the same time, while you are performing other operations, is definitely amazing. I can get emails and IMs all the time and even Facebook notifications can came to my device smoothly, an experience I never had before with other devices (neither with the iPhone).
In the iPhone, you can use just one application at a time, so the experience you get with the Bold is far away. Someone replaced Blackberries with iPhones for their company, but I doubt it has been the right choice, especially with a fantastic device like the Bold (Dan, what do you think?).
If you want to find more excited BlackBerry Bold users, just use Twitter search with “blackberry bold“… You’ll find many users excited like babies with a new toy…
