Answers:

1. the email is free to setup but does use data to operate soo you may want to get a data plan if you plan on using this feature.

2. probably 10 cents per each text if you dont have a texting plan... plus depending on what your carrier charges per kilobite it could end up costing you more then you would think.... i would def check with ur carrier!

3. The pin is a unique number each blackberry has... kinda like your social security number...except its used for BBM and Pin messaging and 3rd party app registrations....

4.yes you can message anyone who has a BB... you can add them via email or PIN but BBM operates using data so without a data plan its useless...

5. when you say the list... if you reffering to your application shortcuts then yes you can move then in the order you would like them to appear on your screen... (however somes if "Hard programed" will not allow you to move shortcuts) you can move your shortcuts by going to the main menu (while highligting the shortcut u want to move) and then select "Move" once you move it to where you want it simply press and realease the trackball.

1. How long have you had ur BB? This one ? A few weeks, Had a 8100 for awhile before that. GSM did not work here so I had to get the 8130 on CDMA

2. What made you want the BB you have? Small, stylish, and I had an 8100 I fell in love with.

3. Would you ever give you ur BB? I think that is would you ever give up your BB. If that is the question - no. I have had motorla, Samsumg, all the big players, but my 8100 went through a lot of use and abuse and I have to say RIM builds a very solid product. They have me for life.

4. Does your BB cause fights between you and your signf. other? It has in the past but I think it is more due to a chick whom was hooked up with his friend who kept txting him. He is a married man, back off. This ended when I told him it was me or that you know what.

5. What do you mostly use your BB fore? Txt and email, occasionally BB messenger.

6. What is your fav thing about your BB? It does everything I need it to do and more. Being able to add your own pictures, themes, ringtones, etc. without having to pay for them or having to buy a USB cord and CD for crazy amounts (I am looking @ you Motorola)

7. What is so great about the BOLD? It's the biggest, baddest thing we have going right now. Were all technology you know whats here. Personally, I am waiting another pearl. I dont think I can do such bulky phones but to each their own! (Not to say if I won the thread I would not have a Curve! haha)

8. Where do you live, how old are you and what do you do for a living? I live in NL, Canada, I am 23 and a social worker. (They give us cell phones, but not BBs, that I had to acquire on my own)

9. What was your last phn before your BB? BB 8100! LOL, other than that? Motorola Rokr. Was not a bad little phone, but came with 1.0 USB when 2.0 Had been out for years !

10. What do you and your BB plan to do this summer? As we always do Pinky, try to take over the world !
