BlackBerry Is No Bold Answer to the iPhone

Back to blog

This article is a joke

The writer states that the Bold doesn't compete but gives no reasoning. The Bold has every feature the iphone has except touchscreen which is preference, not a feature. Another case of irresponsible journalism....

The Iphone is a joke

The biggest marketing ploy of this year. those who drop tons of dollars for a screen that gets crazy dirty and is big enough to not fit in your shoe are falling for it.

The functionality and compatablilty of the Iphone begs for critics.

not as good as iphone

not even close. i used to be a crackberry addict. the iPhone is years ahead in terms of features and easy of use. there's no comparison.

Blackberry: Old not Bold

I agree -- the facile RIM hype is what is bold -- the clunky new Blackberry is NOT.

The Blackberry's tiny screen is only impressive if you've never had an iphone. You can get a bigger screen on the back of a camera. I'd be embarrassed to have such a device.

The Blackberry Bold belongs on some dweeb's belt clip, along with a big jangling ring of keys and a pair of Dockers.

You have to wonder how much the RIM PR folks having been paying for media lunches..errr launches.

Snore.
