The Iphone still can't compete in the business world.
http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/networking/?p=1582

But what really throws a wrench in the works is the fact that most organizations will demand the ability to roll-out in-house developments without having to go through a cumbersome third-party submission process. “Jailbreaking,” while apparently acceptable to some groups of consumers, is hardly a solution that can be considered in the enterprise.

In addition, an enterprise implementation of the BlackBerry platform allows applications to be pushed out to a BlackBerry smartphone at any time. With the latest upgrades, this ability has been extended all the way down to the operating-system level. These are features that are notably absent from the iPhone, which can only lead to it being a poor choice for any form of large-scale deployment.

Working professionals still choose the superior smartphone: The Blackberry. Enjoy your fart apps, though.

1. LOL- I saw the thread title and just KNEW
This was from you! BTW, yes all the people I work with have blackberries as their work phone...I agree the blackberry is good there...But I don't need a work cell phone...My iphone is for my own personal use and I love it!
There we go..blackberries are for workaholics, Iphones are for people who just wanna have fun!:P

2. The Blackberry is the solution for the working professional, period.
The iCrap has it's own audience it caters to - mostly mouthbreathing idiots who can't figure out how to use a Blackberry.

8. I wonder if Apple is going to market this needed accessory for their tap n pray shitfest of a phone


They can call it something clever like the iWipe and charge 20 times what it's worth. Instead of refilling it when you run out, you have to buy the whole assembly because it's sealed and no one in their right mind would ever want to crack it open. Of course, they'll need to somehow figure out how to tell you mouthbreathers that a smudgy phone is somehow a 'feature' instead of a glaring fucking failure.
