what service carrier are you on? or are you going to switch that with the upgrade?

 

he said hes renewing with AT&T

 

yep, at&t. i think im just going to get the BB pearl. its gonna be cheap since i am renewing.

 

just go my route.....don't carry a phone!!! LOL it's so much easier not being attached to a piece of equipment. Let the regular phone get all the messages like the old days....what the **** would people do if cell phones just fell off the planet?!?!? Ask that same question 15 years ago and nobody cared.

I can see where some people may need them for work and such, but other than that....cell phones can disappear for all i care. ff topic i know:

but if your going to get one.....go with the Pearl. hahahahaha

 

i dont have a "home phone" aka...land line. too much money for what a cell phone can to plus so much more. plus free long distance. yeah im either gonna get the pearl or the blackjack II.

 

do what i did my cell was cheep take 2 cans and a string.....

 

sry that just wasn't funny in the least. nice try though.

 

sorry i could not entertain you

 

its ok, but if it happens again ill have to hang all your pets. lol.

 

well leavin now to go get a phone. thanks for all the advice and ideas folks.

 

i have no pets but these kids are gettin on my nerves lol

 

lol...that was funny!!


so I got the BB Pearl. A red one for me, and a black one for my girlfriend.

 

I might pick up a Verizon Voyager tomorrow.

 

you do know its 10 times cheaper it get the phone online?

 

wow...its amazing how far off topic this thread got....

anyways...congrats on the new phone...im gonna get a BB from verizon when my current plan is up.

fonc...you may not like the Voyager, to me, its awkward to use the touch screen the way it is setup..and its not very responsive..

 

In my opinion anything with windows mobile will give you some problems. Just like anything windows , it has some problems. However that's not to say that they aren't good phones. I have a motoQ from sprint and its an awsome phone. Very user friendly very slim. If you really must get a pda I'd go with something like a treo, you may opt to get one with a touchscreen or not, I personally don't like those. The good thing about the pda's is that you can sync you contacts with your pc very easily and it makes texting super fast with the full qwerty key pad. You can make your own rigntones and they all offer memory card slots Mini sd slots for the most part. They also offer a lot of features which aren't available with your regular flip/bar style phone. You'll have real web browsing with your choice of browser. You can watch TV or listen to the radio and most come with real good cameras for taking pics..I can go on with the many more features they offer but that would take forever..
Let me know if you have any specific questions..

 

/\/\ thanks for the onfo 4.6...I already got 2 BB pearls.

oh and Must See...I paid $99 for each phone, so the interweb was not cheaper.

 

BB pearls don't use windows OS so you'll be fine!

 

yes, i was glad to see that. does the BB curve use windows?

 

No it does not! If my memory serves me right BB do not work on windows OS. I think they have their own OS!

 

kewl, well I just got back from the phone place, I turned in both BB pearls and got 2 BB Curves in place of them, the only reason i didnt get the Curves in the first place is because the phone store told me that they were not insurable. I found out today that BB just added the Curve to the insurable list, so now I have 2 Curves....one for me and one for the woman, and both are insured.

 

Yall sum sick sumbitches!!! Just get a new West Virginia cell phone. A Campbells soup can with a piece of string hanging out the end. When youre not talking on it you can carry your brains around.
