Htc Evo hands down the best phone on the market and the iphone 4 won't change that.

Ill give you one good reason. No insurance.

Mine got stolen and I was SOL.

But what if it broke? or the screen cracked? Or you dropped it in the lake on accident. Yep your SOL. Sorry your out 600 bucks now to buy a new one.

I have a blackberry now

Here's two more:

Don't hold it by the sides

Why are there spots on my screen?

Here's a review of 5 of the top new phones

There are better phones on the market. There is not a more hyped phone on the planet.

Edit: I left out a few notable items most other phones in this segment have.

FM Radio (some also have FM transmitters)
Removable media card
FLASH

I love mine so far, no issues here. But seriously who uses blackberry anymore? Between the iPhone and all the different Android phones I just don't see what the point is. Talk about last years technology.

The BB is the best unit for business communication I have ever used. The Iphone is a neat toy, but I can't afford the dropped calls, broken screens and whatever. If i need a mini computer, I use a lap top.

Nobody I know who has an iphone has experienced those issues. The iphone blows away a crackberry for business communication also.

Steve Jobs sure mixed up a tasty batch of Kool Aid.

I'll stick with my Android based phone. There's some awesome stuff coming in the next few months.

Yeah Android is kicking *** right now, if you compare their growth in the market compared to BBs lose of the market its incredible. If I didn't love my iPhone so much, even enough to deal with AT&T's crappy service I would switch over in a heart beat.
