Right now I have an iPhone 3G which is also an amazing phone, very fun to use, some of the applications are awesome.. but not as good for business. It's pretty difficult to type fast on the touch screen keyboard if your going to do a lot of emails.

K, all Blackberry's are amazing for business purposes. Very simple to send/recieve emails.. and they're very compatable with the E60. My old Curve was phenomenal, and I plan on buying the Bold from Rogers wireless when it comes out on the 21st. It has Wifi to unlike some BB's. Quadband, the call quality is great! I would definately reccomend a Blackberry!

Thanks Rocky , how was the voice quality , my wife has a Curve and it really doesn't sound great for the outside caller , she has a 6 vert so I'm assumming it would have the same BT as ours ??

I never had any complaints with my Curve. Especially when it was connected to my E60. My gf actually used to say how clear it sounded when connected! I'm sure that any complaints your wife has with her Curve will be eliminated with the new upgraded Bold. Wait on it for a week or so untill a few members (like myself) get the Bold, and we'll give you some feedback on it!
My brother in law is one of the Rogers GM's I think I'll put the lean on him for a deal , what's the price going to be , or has it been announced yet ?

Right up until my boss in NYC starts sending me e-mails at 4am (I'm in Seoul) expecting immediate replies!

No complaints here with my BB Curve in terms of sound/call quality and BT sync'ing with my e60...
