Rick Schwartz is clearly one of the best domainer’s and online entrepreneurs in the industry, and no idiot would deny that. However, he recently posted a blog post shooting down the BlackBerry and promoting the iPhone which you can see by clicking here. And I have got to say, what a load of crap he’s dishing out. With all respect to Rick, I am going to have to disagree with him and say that the BlackBerry is 1000x better as a whole considering not only the younger generation but the older generation as well. I probably understand technology better than 75% of adults. I like to consider a high percentage of the older generation as technologically-challenged. If teenagers and young adults have trouble using the touch-screen technology on the iPhone, just imagine how many issues the older generation will have. About half of my friend’s have iPhones, and when I’m walking somewhere with them, they need to stop in order to send a text message or email. The touch-screen is the least efficient method to type up emails, texts and documents. While the iPhone does have over 100,000 apps, are all of those apps truly necessary? BlackBerry App World allows you to select from 2,000 apps to download, all tested thoroughly. Congratulations Apple on having 100,000 apps, why don’t we have people waist more time in order to search through our apps, some of which are repetitive and nonfunctional. Let’s not forget that in size the blackberry is much lighter and easier to carry around than the iPhone. Who wants to carry an overweight, oversized phone around? That’s a hassle! Relating this back to the internet industry, BlackBerry is now offering a WordPress for BlackBerry app to make WordPress compatible with BlackBerries, which you can see by clicking here. Many in our industry say have a WordPress app for the iPhone makes the iPhone that much better, but BlackBerry has it too! Overall, the efficiency of the BlackBerry compared to the iPhone doesn’t even compare. The BlackBerry is so much more efficient and better in the end-run. Before I end this, I would like to throw in a little twist. I happen to be an Apple lover. I invest heavily in Apple stock (and have made a lot from it) and think that Apple technology will dominate the world. I will also say that the idea of a phone made by Apple is great, but the BlackBerry as of right now beats out the iPhone any day. Also, Rick, if you’re reading this, I read your blog often, love it, just had to post my disagreement with this post. I’d like to get everyone’s comments though, so make sure to submit them below!
