Blackberry Storm, because I am sure there are a lot of people that do not know which one will be better.

the Nokia E71 seems to be a good point for comparison. Same form factor. Same demographics (i.e. business/corporate) Both also offer good multimedia integration

Not to mention it would be nice to see a price fight of two fresh products (not the G1 or the Diamond or god forbid the Iphone)

P.s. i'm not hating on the iphone ( I think its a great product and does everything it does very well ) I just would like to see some new faces on prize fight

Blackberry Bold vs. Moto Q9 vs. Nokia E71 - those 3 are serious smartphones aimed at the business crowd, even though the Moto doesn't get much attention...

I think it would be interesting to put the Bold up against the Samsung Epix since they are both the same form factor, both AT&T, and both relatively new.

I want to see a giant prize fight between the Instinct, Delve, Behold, Eternity, and Omnia. That'd be AMAZINGG

It's really unfair that you're doing the iPhone vs. Storm prizefight already. It's pretty obvious that the Storm was released prematurely and needs a while before it reaches it's full potential by fixing all the bugs and releasing the actual application store (the blackberry run one, not the verizon run app center). It wouldn't be a big deal if you were planning on updating the prizefight later but you obviously aren't. The least you could do really is compare the Storm using the latest OS (4.7.0.75) that just became available and fixes a lot of the slowness and such you gave it a bad review for, but that probably won't happen either. Oh well.

btw, I think it should be the bold vs the touch pro/fuze. The e71 seems like a better match but seeing as it's not being sold through carriers not too many people are actually considering buying it.

I think that the Samsung Epix is a great competitor to the Blackberry Bold. They are both meant to be powerful 3g phones, so it should be a good competition.

IDK about the Bold, but a Xperia1 vs N97 is a must.

Bold vs Storm--with latest storm updates/fixes. Or maybe just a re-review of the Storm. I tried it today at Verizon store and it was very fast. Or what about a 3 way: Bold Storm Curve.

i am an att user and i cannot decide between the bold and the fuze so i would love to see a prizefight between the two. both are for more corperate users but try and add flare to the consumer side of the products.
