I switched to Blackberry by ten days (more or less) and I didn’t belive to get so much satisfaction from it!
It’s really a great phone, battery life time is incredible (up to 3 days with wifi always on and on intensive usage), software is really robust, I still never had a problem.
The only problem (but it’s not an issue) I noticed is when there is an high network activity (for example when downloading anything) the phone is less responsive, but for me it’s not really an issue.
Usually I use my mac for everything related with my communication needs and I used my iPod touch (1st gen) for Facebook and email while I was at home. Now with Blackberry I don’t use iPod at all, everything is in my Blackberry, I receive alerts for incoming messages on email and Facebook (I use it less for twitter).
With Blackberry Desktop Manager (on my mac) I can sync contacts and calendars with Blackberry (as I did with Nokia).
Another annoying thing is that Blackberry Desktop Manager supports just the cable sync, so I have to use the cable everytime I want to sync, with Nokia I could use bluethoot. I had also problem to connect Blackberry to my mac using bluethoot, so probably Blackberry Bold can’t send data with bluethoot, just voice (I didn’t check because it’s not a big problem)
Blackberry browser is not a great browser, but (as I did with Nokia) I installed Opera mini and it works properly :)
In conclusion I can suggest everyone to buy Blackberry Bold 9700, it’s a robust phone with good software, it isn’t perfect but for me the little issues it has are not really a problem.
I’m really curious to see version 6 of the OS :)
