If you can sync your contacts from your BB to your computer (Outlook?) then iTunes will sync your Outlook contacts with your iPhone.

Will I notice any problems with email functions? At most all I do is reply to them and the odd time open attachments.
Pretty sure you can do all that but attachments are WAY better on the iPhone. I send work emails from my bb to my iphone just so I can view attachments and actually see them.

With the iOS 4 there is now an integrated inbox so all your emails are displayed in the same inbox. Nice.

If he is just forwarding it is no problem. As you are saying though he may be able to access his work emails directly, depending on his work's rules. My work's security people would have a heart attack if I even asked.

Just forwarding is all I need so I am kept in the loop and the odd time respond. I don't need direct access to the server

FYI for all you Telus users out there, they will not be matching the plans from Virgin, Fido, Bell and Rogers for 6GB for $30.

If you go iPhone you will never go back. I would pay $500 to lose my work bb and just use my iPhone.

These things are seriously fast. Most impressive thing I've ever seen from Apple.

For those of you just wanting to purchase the iPhone from Apple online:

http://store.apple.com/ca/browse/hom...co=MTgxNTgzMzY

16GB - $659.00 32GB - $779.00

However, it looks like it is a 3 week wait.
