They text like mo'fos 24/7 and dabble in facebook while listening to free mp3s and playing games. They don't post on forums either. They can do with probably 90 minutes a month too.
Pink Predecessor (to my understanding) was the TMble Sidekick. This was around the time that Boost Mobile started advertizing big as well as the crazy niche market carriers came out (Ampd mobile etc). After the BBerry came out it was like a virtual Pandoras Box of people buying up smartphones. Now wherever I go 8-10 times this particular group (teens) has either a BB or an Iphone. Heck i cant even go to Yahoo Answers without seeing 18 questions about either of these to phones.

and yet no one there seems to have ever heard the term Google for some reason :/
