iPhone is the best...but if you dont want a phone and you dont want internet on cellular network then iPod Touch is the best coz Touch also has all the features that iPhone has except Phone,Camera,Mic and internet on 3G



You can buy an earphone with Mic and use it as PDA coz it also has Mobile Files PRo that lets you create , edit,view all the MS office files and also iWork.



It has app that lets you create keynote presentation and it has VoIP capabilities too.



It costs only 229 for 8GB and you dont have to pay any monthly bill.



And you can make calls to any cell phone or landline

You can send and receive unlimited Text and MMS too.



You just need to install free app FRING from iTunes.

It has Wi-Fi so , you can access your desktop remotely.

iPhone is the best.



Any model of Blackberry cant even do half of the job that iphone can do.



Storm doesnt have even Wi-Fi so no VoIP at all.



Bold has terrible service in terms of accessing computer remotely and switching files.



iPhone has complete support for office n it has many apps that let u view and carry all ur docs.



n u can transfer files back to comp anywhere anytime.

iPhone is the best PDA no doubt about it. It can do everything from creating a Excel document to making presentation.



Syncing everything is also very effective n easy.



VoIP capabilities makes it unmatched. And yes ability to take screenshot is amazing. It has pretty much everything that a PDA should have.



you can connect it to TV n projector ...which is awesome.



Internet is the best on it nothing can ever compare. $200 ..so price is good too.

No PDA in world is as good as iPhone.



iPhone has full office support including MS Excel with all the formulas even complex ones. You can view, create and edit.



You can, not only view them can create a spreadsheet and edit your current files.



You can transfer all your files,audio,video wirelessly to iphone and from iPhone to computer from anywhere.



You can make Keynote presentation right on iPhone and connect to projector to deliver presentation. No need of a computer at all.





You can make conference call using VoIP. I make international VoIP calls on it with Live Photo Streaming. Even super computer cant do this. And Blackberry cant even dare to dream this.



You can stream webcam on iPhone and you can can access 30 computers at the same time and send all your document to them. You can even record the voice.



It has the best internet interface. Wi-Fi works like a charm and most of the apps work even on 3G.



You can search anything on GOOGLE by VOICE Command no need to type anymore.





Another thing that comes handy for my projects is the ability to take "Screenshots" I visit a website and if i find something important I just take screenshot n later I can use them as reference. I can even convert all those screenshot in powerpoint presentation right on iPhone.



I have to sometimes make 3D interface of a plan to show all the dimension I can do it right on my iPhone coz it can make 3D stop motion movie.



Itunes has iTunes U which has amazing information and also video podcast that gives information from all fields.



And world know it has the best media player that plays MP3,MP4,MPEG-4,.MOV, M4P.



Video looks stunning coz it displays over 200,000 colors (Blackberry is capable of only 56,000 colors)



Its capable of sending MMS,SMS for free through apps like Photo Fling, iptexter.



iPhone is complete solution for business needs as well as entertainment no wonder it became the most favorite smartphone/PDA among business users and the highest selling phone in US. iPhone is only $200 with 2 year contract.



@Lowell



You didnt upgrade , you downgrade to Bold coz iPhone replaced Blackberry from the status of "most favorite business phone"

recent surveys shows iPhone has 77% satisfied customer where Blackberry has only 33%.



If iPhone is that expensive get iPOD Touch with $50 earphone +Mic Once you get earphone and mic, you can make calls through one free app "TruePhone" You can even have free conference call through this app.

there are a number of available, even nonetheless you may desire to to re-examine the colour demonstrate screen. i've got had a team PDAs by way of the years and once I observed one that had an identical demonstrate screen length and backbone yet grow to be in colour, it grow to be sparkling that colour very much complements clarity. i will admit that I used to think of intense determination and colour have been extravagant and further little fee for the failings I used it for. yet now i will in no way go returned.

I would get the AT&T BlackBerry Bold. It is $399.99 with a new 2-year contract and then you get a $100 mail-in rebate. I currently own the BlackBerry Bold and I love it. I am a former iPhone owner. I had 4 iPhones and finally decided to upgrade. If you don't want to pay the $400 for the Bold you could always get the Curve. They are $179.99 with a 2-year contract and then have a $100 mail-in rebate.

You can have either iPhone or iPOD Touch.



-Both has MP3 and video player

-Both has Internet

-Both has Agenda



If you don't need anything else and you don't need phone then Touch is better option.



But iPhone3G gives a complete solution.

Blackberry 9500 (Storm) It's a touchscreen however I think it's a little more the 500 unless you do a 1 year contract..
