blackberry curve8310 or 3g i-phone?

Okay, I had a phone stolen, I paid for the i-phone..hate the crummy camera on it, but like the fun things it can do. I just got the replacement curve in the mail, update from the blackberry I had..which phone do I keep and why?? Right now leaning to the blackberry as the i-phone when I try to buy from the i-store asks for accunt info..which for some reason I do NOT have, and can't seem to find anywhere..I did not set it up, so how does it have a password etc??

    i've owned both phones, i had the original iphone and thought the blackberry curve 8310 sounded so much better so i switched. but, after three or so months of the blackberry i decided to switch to the new iphone 3g and it was well worth it. i think the only thing that the iphone lacks is the ability to multimedia message (mms, picture messaging). but i think everything else makes up for that. first of all the internet on the iphone is so much better, you get a real webpage not a watered down version like on a blackberry. i think it's terribly hard to navigate on a blackberry, and on an iphone you just flick your finger. it's so nice having my phone and my ipod in one. and with the ability to connect to wireless internet it is the same as using my laptop as far as aol instant messenger conversations, email, and browsing. the amount of applications you can purchase for the iphone grow, literally, daily. and unlike the blackberry, iphone is constantly getting new updates to de-bug and add new features through itunes. so i'd say the iphone, for sure. although the blackberry was not a bad phone, i think, at this point, the iphone is the best out there.

    as far as needing a password for the istore (or itunes / app store), you'll need to make an account on itunes. go here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/overview/ to download the program onto your computer if you haven't already, and when the program has installed and opened on the left hand side there is a gray bar with 'library, store, devices, playlists' click on 'store', and then at the top right there will be a button that says 'sign in', click on that and then click 'create an account' at the top. once you have created an account, the email and password that your iphone is saying you need to enter in order to buy something will be the email and password you just created in itunes.

    being able to add applications and music to your iphone is one of the best things about that phone, what really sets it apart from a blackberry or any other phone out there. i'm not sure if you know much about the iphone, i didn't know anything when i first got it, but stores like best buy (that have a mobile department), apple stores themselves, and apple.com can teach you a lot of really cool things about the phone. i've had an iphone for almost a year and a half now and i am still figuring new things out.

    anyways, i hoped that helped! i feel like an apple representative after all that haha [:
