Hmm, I may have to take a drive down and take a look.

Aside: your new avatar pic is priceless.

Yes it's going to be a good one. Don't get me wrong, I definitely like this device. But I'm not retiring my Bold for it.

She turned 18months yesterday so those were Easter and 18 mo pics. Thanks for the kind words bro.

I can see where Verizon thinks it's a sucess, just because of the sales. I don't know an exact number of how many were sold, but I bet they really thought it was a good idea to push it out before the holiday. I just hope that they don't rush it and release a phone with so many bugs a lot of customers have to return it because of that.

So, it does not win out over the Bold? Interesting.

No problem man. You know I am a fan of your little cutie.

That is interesting. I don't know why they wouldn't want it to be like the Bold. Or even better. The Bold is a great device and a great seller.

Well, most likely, it is a bit better than the Bold. However, that does not mean it is the right device for Mr. CX. Something is actually going to have to knock my socks off for me to leave my Bold. So, I get what he is saying.

This is true. But if they have never had a BlackBerry before, especially the Bold then this device might be a good one for them. But hopefully it's at least a little faster than the Bold. I would still like one.

maybe i'm reading to much into the comment of you saying Verizon is totally interested in making the device the best it can be but i would think if Verizon felt that way they would include wifi

Okay, so this makes it sound like the Bold is the better device but why??? I know it could just be preference but what do you like about the Bold more???

Personally I like the styling and screen size of the bold. Could use a bit more memory though.

If by launch the niagra is still slower than the bold then I consider this another major fail.
