Default New Blackberry

I have had my BB 8330 for 2 1/2 years with Bell.
I can now get a new one and need advice. I am sticking with the bb although so many tried to convince me to got to the phone route. I am a senior and use it for my calendar and add book(I preferred the Palm years ago for this). Love to have instant email etc and to be on the internet.
I would love opinions, suggestions to guide me to a new device. This one has been giving problems for the past few months; anxious to make a change.
Thanks.

If you can wait for a couple months I'd say wait for the new bold, curve or torch that are coming out. But if you really only want a newer one for the things you listed you can probably get pretty good deal on one of the outgoing phones.

The torch has a larger screen if that matters with a slide out keyboard. I believe one of the new curves will be all touch screen as well as the storm3 or whatever they are calling it. The bold touch has a slightly larger screen then the older bolds with a querty keyboard, trackpad and touch screen.

All depends on which form factor you like.

If you look around the forum you can find some videos etc. on some of the new ones and lots of info. Check out the upcoming/rumored blackberry smartphone section of the forums.

You can edit and save word documents with docs to go. Start a word document on your computer and send it as an attachment. When you open it choose to do so with docs to go. Then you can edit it and save it to your SD card.
