BB Bold vs. Nokia e61i vs. G1 phones for biz
 

I have three phones that I am trying to debate on which one to use for "business."

I have a Nokia e61i that I used to use before my iPhone and loved it, as well and unlocked G1 (that I will use on AT&T network). However, I have a friend who will trade me the G1 for a new blackberry bold.

Prior, I haven't really been a fan of the blackberry for a main phone, but since this is only for business, I really dont care. G1 I didnt really care for and I hate the flip up thing to access the keyboard, so that might be pretty much out.

I'm looking for more email (not on m$ exchange) and IM than any other type of feature.

I still will use my iPhone for everything else, but need to be able to get out of "work" and have people stop calling my cell and getting business emails on my personal phone. I travel a lot and need to respond quickly during business hours, but I get emails on teh weekends and i just want to live a more simple life :winkwink:

Anyone have/use the bb bold? it looks nice but not sure if its worth the fees

I have the BB bold...I absolutely love it. That being said I haven't tried any of the other phones you mention, but I have no complaints at all about the bold. Fast, easy UI - quick email, free ICQ/MSN apps, good gps, great yellowpages app...pretty much everything I need on a day to day basis for work/personal.

hope that helps :)

thanks :thumbsup

im guessing it does, but do you know if it supports Yahoo IM?

I have the G1 and I love it. It does email, IM, real web browser. You can even check CCBill stats on it.

If you have google voice, there's an app that integrates with the phone.

Personally I wouldn't go with anything else.

G1 is absolutely superior.

Remote desktop
SSH client
Server monitoring app
IM
Wifi scanner

plus a bunch of other awesome apps/features.
