Smartphones are great for business. They help you stay on schedule by acting as a personal organizer as well.
A Smartphone is basically a full computer that fits into your pocket. You are able to do almost everything you can do on your laptop, plus you can use it for calls and texts, not to mention the camera and other features not available on common computers.
The iPhone oozes polish. It’s apparent in the hardware, the OS and the apps.
The camera and music capabilities of the iPhone are obvious strengths, but the gap between the iPhone and everything else in these areas is staggering.
Every other manufacturer is chasing Apple and making their phones more and more iPhone-like.
Android is a great choice because of it’s tight integration with Google’s services, a carrier-supported mobile hot spot feature, and a variety of hardware options.
It also has very good background processing; the ability to display the weather and daily agenda on the home screen via widgets is very useful as well.
The traditional BlackBerry is the best of the three platforms for communication activities.
The traditional strengths of the BlackBerry platform are: a great keyboard, efficiencies for power users via hardware key shortcuts, apps with Spartan interfaces that are built for speed. But…
The things that made it different, and in many ways, better, are dropping out of the platform as it tries to play “me too” with the iPhone and Android.
Apps are essential to productivity, entertainment, and full function of your Smartphone!

Perhaps because it bore a strong resemblance to Apple's already wildly popular iPhone – it even runs the same operating system – the iPad caught fire immediately with the public and turned tablet computers into a major product category.
Like the iPad, Android tablets have a touch-screen interface. Both Apple and the various Android manufacturers offer apps through the App Store or the Android Market. However, only the Android tablets support Flash.

Online storage for all your media.
Music you purchase in iTunes appears automatically on all your devices.
