Ok…I’ve actually had this phone for close to a month now but I’m just getting around to posting about it. I was pretty satisfied with my Voyager but Verizon pulled me in…”World’s first touch screen Blackberry” blah blah blah. I honestly went into a Verizon store on 5 different occassions within the timespan of a month to play with it. The biggest hurdle for me would be going from having a physical keyboard to a virtual one. I used to be able to text while driving (BAD! BAD! BAD!) but I can’t do it with this phone. I don’t even try anymore. Overall, I am really digging this phone. Besides the fact that it’s sexy as hell, I still have all the features that I loved having with my Voyager (VZ Navigator, etc.) but now I have Visual Voicemail which I muthafuggin love. I love getting my personal email instantly and love even more that my job didn’t make me set up my corporate email. Ha!
Right now, I don’t make the monthly payments for this phone. Around June, I’ll have to start. I’m going to loathe that shit. *sad face*
So far, no major gripes. My screen sometimes freezes up and I have to take the battery out but that’s only happened twice. This could be unacceptable to some people but this phone has a lotta shit going on so I can deal with it…for now.
So yeah…2 thumbs up! LOL!
The storm is a nice one…but I just couldn’t get with the push screen. I’m glad you love it though!!! Lol @ having to pay for the bill! Welcome to the real world lady!!
I’ll be sure to forward my bills to England LOL!
Well, I too got have had this phone for about a month now. My husband was the driving factor on this deal. Can I just say, I love it more than he does…Visual Voicemail is the ish!
Now, how you getting around not paying the bill???How can I be down?
You need to join the BlackBerry Owner’s Lounge. They give lots of tips and tricks as well as some free perks, so check it out.
And yeah, they are sexy as hell
LOL! Where is this BlackBerry Owner’s Lounge?
It took some getting use to. I loved to text while driving and now I definitely can’t do that anymore.
I found that when you add words to your custom dictionary it’s easier to type a text without having them suggest crazy crap. Also, claring all of the programs that are running in the background can help on those screen freezes.
