I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that at the time BB seemed to be near or as good as iphone in most respects and iphone was just a toy.

Now the only thing I like BB better for is email (which I don't use) and texting. The only reason I prefer it to texting is that I still think that touchscreen keyboards suck. I love having a physical keyboard. I've had a touch for 2 or 3 years and the keyboard still pisses me off rather frequently.

Iphone and even touch are all around life devices. They are far better for pretty much anything except IMO texting and that is only because of the keyboard.
