Who Will Be Christmas Number One BlackBerry Vs iPhone
Forget The X Factor versus Strictly Come Dancing. The real battle for the number one spot this December is between the iPhone and BlackBerry.
Receiving an iPod for Christmas has become a right of passage for both young and old since its launch in 2001. After it hit the mainstream there aren't many of us who haven't been burdened with the traumatic and thankless job of teaching Mum how to download songs from iTunes on Boxing Day. You both know it's all turning misty and you will be volunteered to update it since she hasn't a clue.
Now with the introduction of the iPhone, Apples hold on the Christmas stocking has expanded. Teenagers and techno dad's across the globe will be praying they don't have to delve into their own stash should their very own Santa forget to deliver their touch screen idol come the 26th.
Despite having a cult following of devoted Apple fans, the iPhone has been running into a few embarrassing problems since its launch. The hype isn't dwindling of course, but with so many of its competitors doggedly nibbling away at its profits and vying to fill any niche in the already tight market, are there any alternatives to the iPhone 4?
Most have their money on the latest member of the BlackBerry family. The brand also has a loyal customer base, having moved on from its staunch roots as the must have email device for the busy executive. Now the BlackBerry is the accessory du jour for the celebrity and concious consumer.
Sylish and reliable, BlackBerry handsets have been a hit for years now in the commercial mainstream. However RIM have managed to retained the business of their professional clientele and respect and endorsement of industry insiders.
