He promptly took his brand new pager out, and ran it over, just to see if he was bullshitting or not. It still worked!

And that is why I have a blackberry. It's usually tucked in my back pocket. I have had it ripped out a few times due to snagging on something, mostly the seat belts when I climb out of my car. Yesterday I had to reach hard under the car next to mine at a parking garage to retrieve my pager AND holster, which were 6 inches apart. Fuck....

Rstanley0312 1 #30 March 17, 2009 Consider the Blackberry Curve..... I love mine and all the bugs are now seemingly worked out with the recent updates.... I tried the Storm and went back to the Curve. BluesLife is all about ass....either you're kicking it, kissing it, working it off, or trying to get a piece of it.

The only thing I dont like about my curve is that when I have had a few drinks i seem to drop it a lot. But it still works so that is a plus... Funny--in the beginning I was very careful with mine (and still try to be), since the sales rep told me that blackberrys are very delicate. Although I've dropped mine quite a few times now, and it still works perfectly. There are a few chips & scratches if you look closely, but as long as the phone works like it was designed to I don't care. This is one tough cookie! My sistter told me to get an Iphone, but I don't see what's so special about them, & they are just not for me. When I buy something it's because it functions well & suits me in that respect--not because it's flashy & looks cool.

Happy to help I find it easier to use for a conversations than texting too, b/c of little features it has, such as clicking enter to send instead of going to the menu and clicking send. I'm a big fan of less clicks to do something. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Caitlin89 0 #43 March 17, 2009 I was considering the Dare, but wanted a Blackberry. Global capability and a fast browser were essential. I waited a while to get the Storm, until they had a chance to work out the bugs. Knock on wood, it's been GREAT. I have but one single complaint: I text A LOT, and it had a steep learning curve in that department. It's probably taken me a month or two to get fast, but it's no longer an issue. Still, texting while driving is almost out of the question (must be looking at the phone to text, because you obviously can't go on feel with no buttons), though that's probably a good thing.
