    A question to everyone here with an iPhone...

    What phone did you buy after you threw your iPhone against the wall???
    I hate this thing, I hate texting on it. It's a stupid show off phone.

    Is the blackberry still the best phone to text and check email?

            They put everything but the kitchen sink in it, you can't do videos, forward texts, send pictures. All the stuff Mac is known for.

                    That's cool, but something about watching videos on my phone. I spend enough time online for that.

                    But I did hear that was a cool phone.

                      Yea, there's a hack to disable the auto-correct option on your iphone.

                        Yea, I don't sit around watching videos per se, but it's nice if I'm out and want to show someone a clip I uploaded. Like recently I had a film editor give me some of his short films to put onto YouTube for him, and we met up for drinks and I just brought up the movies on my phone to show him how they ended up.

                        Also Google Maps saved my ass a couple of times.

                          Dave,
                          The 8300 is a good phone! I always like Blackberry's but always switch I now have the t-mobile Dash which is a good phone without all the bells and whistles!

                            My girl has the new Treo 755p and it's fixed all the annoying like things I don't like about my 700.

                              If your on AT&T, wait until the 4th and get the 8310 Blackberry, Then you'll have a GREAT device. Or if your on Tmobile, get the new 8320 that has WiFi built in.

                              And yes the Blackberry will NEVER be beat when it comes to a stable device that does text and e-mail.

                                      Dave ...have patience..Just like all Apple Products..it will only get better and since it all updates through Itunes you wont have to buy a new phone for the new features (except for 3G ) All dislikes will get fixed...I guarantee

                                      A little tip.....just type away...the app on the iphone has a thinking dictionary that corrects everything and adds commonly used words. I used to have the same troubles as you...then I started just typing and not proof-reading until after, you have to correct some wrong or misspelled words with the "spot glass" but all in all its minimal.

                                            But I used to type so fricken fast, not I do and not proof it and it spells out something totally different then what i am writing, I've even reset the dictionary a few times.

                                            But thanks, I'll be patient.

                                              I have the Moto E6 and the BB 8320 love them both. E6 is easy to hack and small with a touch screen. The 8320 blackberry is awesome also, lighter and has the Wifi.

                                                The iPhone will make you a better iPhone typist if you ask it to. It made me a Cuban Sandwich last week.

                                                  yo Dave, give it a lil time bro. The keyboard is very clever. It learns you and learns from your mistakes. So the more you use it, the easier it gets. Not only do you get a hang of it, it gets a hang of you.

                                                  Spend some time with it and give us an update if you could of how you like it then

                                                            like its already been said, keep your iphone it will get better. and of course the more you use it the faster you'll get with the keyboard, and at some point in a software update they'll likely update the dictionary to be more accurate and let you type your sms on the horizontal keyboard using thumbs which is much better.
