Could someone with experience on both phones explain me what is so cool about them??

I have a blackberry, and I like it. One main reason is because I am used to it. Another reason why I like it is because a lot of my friends have BB's and BBM (Blackberry Messenger) is a great tool to talk with your friends, share files so on so forth. Much better then texting. A lot of people I know use Blackberrys just for this APP alone because all of there friends have it. You can do group chats, share images with multiple people. It has great functionality. Blackberry is meant more for the corporate world though. With Blackberry Enterprise server. Companies have much more control over what people can do on there company phones. Where you have no control on an iphone or google phone. You can actually do contact filtering through BES so you can control the browser on your users BB. The email, contacts and calendar are all done through a lot better sync process with BES then any other phone has.
As far as for someones personal phone. I think the iPhone & any Adnroid touch screen is much more advanced for media purposes for the regular user. The Apps are much better. The games are much better. So on so forth. In the same token there are still a lot of people out there, me being one of them who will never deal with a touch screen phone. My girl has an iphone and it is a complete headache for me to type a text msg on. With my blackberry i find the keyboard much more user friendly.
I also live in NY and Verizon is the best service here and we dont have an iPhone yet. At&t only has it right now and there service is terrible here.
This is just a few thing I have seen.
I think for a personal phone if you are ok with the touch screen. Seems like Androids are becoming the cream of the crop.
