Browser
BlackBerry Storm is equipped with a real-HTML browser quite similar iPhones. It has zooming options and page cashing. Actually at the moment there is no information if Storm's browser is Flash capable while iPhone is known as none.

Media
Both BlackBerry Storm and iPhone have music and video players, BlackBerry Storm is a little more useful while allows you to upload you MP3 stuff with no need to have iTunes or smht on the PC you are downloading from that makes the process easier. Actually, if you are iTunes fan - it's a bug +Plus for buying iPhone decision, but if you aren't - ability to get stuff not only by "iTuned" PC or Mac will make you choose BlackBerry Storm.

Apps
BlackBerry Storm comes with a lot of preinstalled stuff. Well, it can be quite enough for you and you'll never need for smth else. iPhone's big +Plus it's, sure, AppStore. BlackBerry-lovers will argue that it has a lot of applications for BlackBerry available, but friendly speaking, it is incomparable with Apple's AppStore.

Camera
BlackBerry Storm allows to make 3.2MPx vs iPhone out-of-date 2.0 MPx pictures and it records video. I should mention that BlackBerry Storm has built-in flash that makes this gadget's camera much more useful.

Maps
Both devices has maps using built-in GPS.

Interfaces
Both devices has mini-jack phones connector, BlackBerry Storm has microSD(TM)/SDHDA slot that gives you ability not just to increase available memory capacity (iPhone is 16Gb maximum), but use your computer card reader to simply download / upload all your stuff. And, sure, you can have more than one card (it's 16Gb cards available in the market, but, hope, it will take not much time for 32 and more).

Availability and Prices
Both gadgets are about $200 with all-that d**n plans, but BlackBerry Storm gives you ability to use any other 3G network - if its actually critical for you.

The Conclusion
Well, simply counting we'll get +4 for iPhone vs +7 for BlacvBerry Storm. But... what are these "pluses" equal? iPhone pluses for design, user interface, iTunes and AppStore vs BlackBerry Storm - for camera, copy-paste, messaging and flash card. It's up to you what do you need more.
