I'm a longtime BlackBerry user and got the Pre when it launched. I ended up returning it because I think OS 1.0 has some revisions to go through before it's full fledged. But, if it lasts and makes it to future OS releases, it will be pretty good. The keyboard was small coming from a BlackBerry but I would have gotten used to it. The device is a great size but pretty slippery.
I've had an iphone since it came out but rarely used it. When the 3GS came out, I decided to try it out as my primary device and have been pretty happy with it so far. I'm definitely getting used to the typing on the screen. I swear my 3G couldn't keep up with my typing where the 3GS has no problems. I also do like the larger screen size as opposed to the Pre.
I think the Pre, BlackBerry and iphone are all great devices and just appeal to different people. I could very well have kept on using the BlackBerry but wanted to try something different for awhile and am quite pleased with using the iphone. Sure, it doesn't have some of the features my BB did but then again, the BB doesn't have some features the iphone has either.
I did put up a short review of the Pre on my website for anyone interested.
