Opinions on Blackberry

[shawndavid]

We had to change my T Mobile plan so they want to add a year which means it's time for a new phone.

I need opinions on the following:

Blackberry 8700g
Blackberry Pearl
Pearl 8100
Sidekick 3
Sony Ericsson GC89
Shadow

Spanks!

i'm fine with my SK2.. Quest has like the SK4million

but i'm analog.

I have an 8703e, probably similar to the 8700g - I love the full-ish keyboard, battery life, and it's rock solid except when I'm tethering with it.

the 8700g is old and weak...been out for like 2 years...get the curve

Got the same one, I like it.

You know, you can get any phone you like on the GSM (?) network and just have it unlocked.

I just got the 8130 and its pretty awesome.

I am not a fan of BB, but I am a huge supporter or Palm OS, so Centro for me. They do make Treos for GSM connections.

I am of no help to this thread

*listens to bad industrial trance because sd hasn't hooked me up yet*

I'm more in your basket.

I have a pearl and it's a good little phone but get one with a full keyboard. Get a Curve or better.


They are called Crackberries for a reason.

I agree, the full keyboard is essential... especially if you are coming from a Dash.

I tried the Blackberry Pearl, it was fine I had to pay out the butt for the service but it was fine. I found that after using and Windows phone that it bothered me that I couldn't tweak the BB like I did the MDA. I like how the Shadow works but I'm not totally sold on it. It looks like it has all the features that your Dash did but it has a weaker battery. And if you get a sidekick I would like to request that you wear your pool boy outfit at all times.

k thanks.

I've got the BB Pearl 8130, and like it so far. Not awesome battery life (week or so with light calling/e-mail/web surfing. Would be nice to have a full sized keyboard, but I haven't found one of the newer BB that USCC carries that has a camera. I don't like the Suretype, so I shut that off (typing e-mail addresses with Suretype on is a PITA). Umm, what else. Sound is audible and loud (with volume all the way up. Edit: If you get a cool provider, you can tether your BB and use it as a modem with your laptop. Unfortunately USCC has that disabled it would seem, which kinda blows.

Get an iPhone for $350 and have it unlocked.
