Re: Pre vs Blackberry

I haven't read all the posts because I don't really care, but my boss recently returned his FOURTH Pre because of the chintzy hardware problems (the Pre is no better than the TP in that regard) & went back to a BB for now.

Re: Pre vs Blackberry

I havent had any problems with my Pre (knock on wood), and i use the crap out of it, i let my customers use it all day long and dont have any of the issues reported in the many threads out there. Palms Synergy rocks, that will keep your calendar and appointments available with as little trouble to get to them as possible. I get email faster on my pre than my fellow coworkers with Blackberrys. If you arent on the BES then i would go with the pre, especially if you are in a TP right now.

Re: Pre vs Blackberry

The Pre kept me organized, love how it kept my iCal, Google, and mobile calendar synched.

Let me clear this up for those who might be considering the Palm Pre. The numererous claims of "chintzy" hardware/ slide keyboard are bs and coming from individuals with a "unique" talent for finding a reason to not be satisfied. It's ridiculous to have to return a phone 4 times because they where all miraculously having the same hardware issue. Sometimes exchanges are completely necessary but in this case I seriously doubt it.

Re: Pre vs Blackberry

Great info in this thread, however, no one commented on the OPs question about the SERO plan. From what I know, you can't put the Pre on a Sero line...right?

Pre cant be used on a sero plan, needs to be on an everything data plan.
