Phone hype can't kill Blackberry

Looks like Research in Motion is benefiting from Apple’s failure to wow anyone with the release of its iPhone for third-generation wireless networks. Shares of RIM rose 2% in late trading Monday, as investors yawned at the latest iPhone plans. Confirming plans first reported by Fortune.com’s Scott Moritz, Apple said Monday that the new 8-gigabyte iPhone will cost $199 and a 16-gigabyte version will cost $299. CEO Steve Jobs says the new iPhone will be available worldwide starting July 11.
Much had been made of Apple’s designs on the lucrative market for business users that’s currently dominated by RIM’s Blackberry smartphone. But nothing Jobs said Monday seemed to excite investors in Apple, which saw its shares drop in afternoon trading following a months-long runup. One measure of the costs tied to the new, cheaper iPhone was an earnings warning Apple partner AT&T issued Monday afternoon. The San Antonio telco said it expects the "subsidized device pricing" to cut 10 to 12 cents a share from earnings this year and next. One is tempted to wonder, however, whether AT&T is simply using the iPhone rollout as a scapegoat rather than saying the slowing economy is weighing on its business.

n95 blows the iPhone out of the water in regards to everything other than style, browsing and ipod interface...5mp carl ziess camera, gps, copy and paste, mms, download files from the net, do this, do that etc etc...iPhone is very limited in what it can do but what it does it does well and looks dead sexy.
