That's 163 ppi or pixels per inch for the iPhone vs. 217 ppi for the Bold. There's also the QWERTY keyboard, GPS, WiFi, 3G, 1 GB of internal storage and support for up to 16GB of expansion capacity just to name a few features. Although there were some ...

Many phones, including the Storm and the new BlackBerry Bold (which I really like) have software that enables editing and creating Microsoft ...
