I think I'm done. Getting a Blackberry

[akareem27]

I had a diamond then switch to a curve hten to a t-pro.The diamond was good but without a keyboard it sucked *** typing on the screen with the 1-2 sec lag (on everything with winmo) typing became a problem,so a curve became very attractive.I got the curve and while its a good steady dependable phone,it was boring.I mean,i got all my texts,emails,phone calls and the battery can go two to three days easy while regular use,im logged on all day and consistenly on myspace,it was too boring for me.With no other phones on the market like windows(1000's of apps) I wont be going anywhere soon

I just want to add to what everybody else is saying. Being a former BlackBerry user (Pearl and Curve) converted to the Omnia to the Touch Pro back to the Curve for a week and then back to the Touch Pro

BlackBerry is SO nice for the email and the battery life and thats it. You'll be bored out of your mind within the first couple of weeks. Theres just not much to them , thats why theres not much to go wrong , cause theres not much to them in the first place

Iphones, blackberries, palms, you name it, they all have these issues, there is no escape, least not until the tegra based devices are out, but even then there's no guarantee, but certainly huge chances of escape from lag, crashing (except once in a while), etc I'm sure.

i see u've been around since oct 2007, but only have 13 post. which really still kinda makes you a noob.

with that being said....have you really given windows mobile a fair chance?? having been here for a year and a half...idda definitely expected to see more then that few of posts. i don't know the ins and outs to the reasoning, but from the outside looking in...it appears as though u're jus primarily using your ppc as a phone. pop in and out of the forum once or twice a month to see what new, EXTREME, latest breakthrough has come out for it.

most geeks here are using the ppc as a phone 2nd. it's a computer first. and i absolutely believe the priority is vice versa for you...based on your user history on this website, it's pretty obvious. Am i correct?

You want a solid PHONE...that can do email, play a few mp3s here and there, couple youtube videos every now and then etc. is that right??

Hmm, Touch Pro obviously ain't for Everyone, esp if you have Verizon's like me...

It's obvious BrokenLimit has a faulty unit/bad ROM, as I don't really recall too many people with non working keyboards. Instead of figuring it out... and making it work... You've decided to go BB... I'll respect that..

There's nothing wrong with wanting the phone to work correctly out of the box. Learning how to SDConfig, Flash, Build ROMs and this whole jargon about Kitchens and Cooks and SYS's and XIPs... You just may not want to deal with it...

But...

I got my TP, I cooked my ROM it works flawlessly, and I had the phone for a Month? It did take a lot of researching, but it was worth it!

I had the Pearl, and the World Edition BB, the most I got to do was change the visual theme... 0ooOooh.. You may have better luck now that BlackBerry AppWorld is out.

I wasn't aware the post count expressed how much you read, utilized, and followed a particular forum.

agrees with above post
their post count has absolutely nothing to do with their knowledge of their phones. It is a ludicrous assumption that many have and comments like those sicken me..

That said
I am very lucky to have gotten my TP from here, one of the first batches too with a chrome problem as well...but I am very blessed to have a good one

Take it from me. Once you have a good one you will never EVER EEEEEEEEEEEVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRR RRRRRRR go back. Its that good of a phone - at least till tp 2

...Perhaps this person has a full time job, larger priorities than forum trolling... etc. Your comment struck me as odd, is all.

I understand what you guys are saying about post count not meaning anything...and for the most part I agree. But I will also say its the first thing I looked at also when I saw the OP. Its logical to think its a possibilty that hes not as familiar with PPCs as alot of us...because the way a lot of us learned about these phones is reading everything and asking questions.

Again...it means nothing...but I can see how someone can come to that conclusion. I wouldnt go accusing the guy of anything though...

Having said that...the OP has stated that hes worked for a helpdesk (so do I) and knows what hes talking about. I am inclined to believe that...and truly believe he just got two bad Pros.
