Re: Will you move away from BlackBerry?
I owned a Bold and waited almost 3 years for BB to come out with a cool new phone. I finally moved on and bought the HTC Thunderbolt. My only regret is how long I waited. I'm more productive on my Thunderbolt in ever respect by an order of magnitude and on top of it it's now not only a work device but an extraordinarily fun personal device.

Re: Will you move away from BlackBerry?
Best decision I ever made... spent 5 yrs on BlackBerry... switch to iPhone. Couldn't be happier. and I work in the corporate environment. LOVE IT.

I just came to BB from iOS, WP7 and Android over the last 3 years.

Re: Will you move away from BlackBerry?
I agree with TomImler's post. I had a 8520 and when I upgraded to the newer OS that I was prompted to do, it deemed the phone absolutely useless. After a week and a half of dealing with Bell CSR and Tech dept they transferred me to RIM. They verified that it was indeed a device issue - in other words it was not supposed to be upgraded and there was no roll-back option. So dumb and wasted a ton of my time. Bell gave me a 9300 free but I have to say that I'll be going to a different phone and carrier. I don't have time to figure out other peoples mistakes. Blackberry is wayyy too over-rated. And I tell every friend I know my opinion when it's a topic of subject.

Deemed? Not supposed to be upgraded? No roll-back option?
I sincerely doubt you have any experience with a BlackBerry. Or if you do, you don't know what you are doing. But drop in again when you're driving by. |
Re: Will you move away from BlackBerry?
I am using all of the Big 3. There is a place for all three types depending on your need. The hope is that the OS 7 BB models impress and of course sell.

Re: Will you move away from BlackBerry?
I have jumped ship and back so many times. Right now I am back to my 9700 because the keyboard and battery life cannot be replaced. I recently purchased a Playbook and love it. I wish they would make Words With Friends and/or Wordfeud compatible.
I dont see my self leaving again and I am eagerly awaiting the 9900! |
Re: Will you move away from BlackBerry?
I went from iPhone to Nokia E55 to a Curve 3G and now a Torch.
Having bought an iPad I didn's need an Apple phone as well and I wanted something usable with good battery life. The Nokia lasted for about six months before Symbian drove me mad. The curve about the same before the limitations of the small screen almost did the same. Then a colleague using a Torch, that his wife had swapped for his iPhone 4 because she hated the BlackBerry, was bemoaning how much he disliked Blackberry so we did a swap - I got him a 3GS and I got his Torch. With my usage patterns I can go three days between charges which is fine for me because it means even with a heavy days usage, I won't run out of charge. The only fly in the ointment is the need to go through BIS to access IMAP email. Not having all of the facilities of IMAP available and not being able to delete or move email on my iPad and have the change reflected on my BlackBerry is a serious downer and a stupid omission. Come on RIM, get this sorted, you've had long enough! |
Re: Will you move away from BlackBerry?
Try using Logicmail. It's a decent IMAP client. I use it when I need to access folders other than the ones pushed to my BB inbox.

Re: Will you move away from BlackBerry?
I have been using Blackberry for several years now. When I first started using them, I loved the device. At that time there was really nothing comparable. I have always been on BIS and had all e-mail accounts come to my Blackberry. For e-mail, Blackberry still has an edge because of BES, but for me the quirkyness of the internet has been to painful to endure. Android and Apple are growing in capabilities by leaps and bounds while RIM holds on to their quaint little platform. I am coming up on my upgrade in November and there is no doubt I will be changing to one of the new trendsetting devices and putting my Storm2 on e-bay.
My kids also have Blackberry devices that are under contract for another year. I am pretty sure they will be changing as well. I will let them pick whatever they like and maybe RIM will have something that is more practical for the "everyday user market" then. RIM's biggest concern should be, not IF, but WHEN Google and Apple will put them out of business. I will say that this site has been my best resource for problem solving for Blackberry and I appreciate all of the folks on here committed to the service of the Blackberry user. By the way, I started typing this message on my device and it got so screwed up, I moved to the computer. Best of luck to the RIM faithful. |
Re: Will you move away from BlackBerry?
I came back to BlackBerry after using several Android phone, and my 9930 is a breath of fresh air! I don't even care about QNX now. I'm thrilled with my 9930.

Re: Will you move away from BlackBerry?
I'm back.... Left BB for a year and a half and have tried just about every Android on the planet and an iPhone 4....
I could not resist the 9900.... |
Re: Will you move away from BlackBerry?
I'm way behind the times and poss this century.
Whilst everyone else was on their second or third smartphone I was still on my loyal push button basic. My leap into the future came with my last upgrade and I was given an Android. Ok for anyone who wants apps, apps and more apps. But a 57yr old techno dumbo like me doesn't do a lot with apps. I still listen to the radio using an actual radio and I play games on the DS. But the Android is ok for the right market. Then on a whim I treated myself to the Blackberry a few weeks ago....so a newish user. I'm sure I haven't yet discovered all that the phone will do, but what I have found I love. There's a proper keyboard.....there's nothing that I can stab my arthritic finger on only to find myself on a 'pay to veiw' porn site....there is a contacts list that doesn't at one touch wizz away before my eyes defying any attempt to catch the one I need......loads more but you get the picture. I'm so glad I got mine and I love it to bits...:) Ang x |
