Why would any sane person (I thought I was) volentarily subject themselves to such a piece of S H I T? This thing has done something to piss me off everyday since I got it a week ago! The salesperson (lieing B) said it was awsome and so easy to figure out, "We never have any problems." . Apperently they haven't sold any! Problems have ranged from no browser to not even working as a phone! Every time I take it back (4 times in a week) the same person says "Thats wierd!". Ya it's wierd, you have my money and this piece of ........ doesn't work, AGAIN! End of rant and moral of my story, if you don't work for NASA and want one of the things, please contact me, I will take your money and give you a kick in the junk. Trust me, the pain will go away faster (I'm in a 3 year contract)!
Blackberry?

I will feel much better after the gas powered blender gets ahold of this thing. Then it will be back to the good old pay and talk pre paid junk (that actually worked!).
My wife hasn't had a problem with hers. She has only had it a couple of months though. What model Blackberry and which carrier?
my sister fell for the same deal.. they hit her with an additional $35 a month for the special "blackberry" service... She bought a diff. phone to try to get out of it.... Its for verizon if someone wants to buy it pretty cheap, im sure.
I have a BB thru Verizon.
The only problem I have is when someone sends me a text with audio. Somehow it shuts down the speaker so when someone calls me I have to reboot my phone (take the battery out).
Other than that, I like it. Internet is WAY faster than TREO.

I've used various blackberries for 8+ years and have always found them quite easy to use. My current one is a Pearl and it is the best one yet, but the "sure type" can be annoying at first to those without much patience. It "learns" over time and get more efficient. I don't need to type on it much though, just read email, calendar, etc.
My wifes is the Pearl. I hate the sure type but she likes it. I got her the Curve but she said it was to big so I went back and got her the Pearl. I got it from Car Toys over the MLK holidays. I got it for free, no mail in rebates. Walked in, signed the contract and walked out with the phone.
We all have crackberry's here at work. Provided by them. I wouldn't ever get one on my own. I like it though. I have never had a problem with it and I think everyone else in our group is problem free as well.
We have a mix of Sprint and Verizon. Everything from Pearls, to curves, to the 8830 world edition.

Had one a few years ago with Verizon and hated the thing..had tons of problems with it and wouldn't get emails for days sometimes.
Just got the Curve BB through T-Mobile and love it. Fast, reliable, and I have multiple email accounts and it has yet to screw one up. And the trackball is super fast/easy to nav and respond. love it.
I did have it lock up on me for about 10 minutes once with an eggtimer thing on the screen, but it worked itself out.
I live in the Mpls/St Paul metro and traffic here sucks most mornings and afternoons, but I last week I downloaded Mapquests Blackberry free live-traffic-map/Nav app...sweet timesaver!
This new one is night and day from the one I had a couple years ago (looked almost exactly like the ones they call Pearls now). That one one would have definitely seen the gas powered blender! I have felt your pain dude.
