Mobile Computer Pits BlackBerry Bold Against iPhone 2G (with video)
Wednesday, August 20th, 2008 at 4:00 PM - by John Martellaro
Mobile Computer has a video comparing the performance of the Web browser in the BlackBerry Bold to Safari on an iPhone 2G. It was a poor showing for the Bold.

In comparing the Wi-Fi browsing speeds, a fixed standard for comparison, Julian Prokaza wrote: "Either Apple is doing something right or RIM is doing something wrong with their respective web browsers, but whatever the case, it’s a pretty poor show for the Bold."
