If it ever was lost or stolen i would have a new blackberry overnighted from ebay.

I just got my first BB on the 6th of Dec. I'm a BB noobie, lucky me I never experienced the BB outage.

[syke]

I really, honestly don't know what I would do if my blackberry crapped out or got lost or went blackout on me. Anyone know how to setup an auto backup? :-/

I would replace it that day. During the outage I was confined to my desk. It was terrible.

[l1fe]

backup? wah?

[jtalbot]

Dear lord I haven't had my BB long but if it were to get lost or broken I know I'd have to get a new one ASAP...As far as outages go, if it happens I might as well take the day off of work and stay in bed...I don't think I could get anything done with out it now.

[musicjunky]

Well I keep most of my stuff on my blackberry, I would cry if it got lost or stolen, and be pissed because I would then have to buy one at full price. I'm just being really protective of it so hopefully that doesn't happen. It would be horrible

[malligood50]

rendered me helpless

Have replaced a few and was always glad to still have updated data.

Like most, I'm terrible about backing up anything. Thanks for the reminder!
I was with Nextel during the big outage, so I was fine, but now with T-Mobile. I would be ok i suppose though considering I use a laptop at Starbucks a lot. Let's just not talk about such issues......

[brianbloom]

I'm not even sure how to back it up.

Right now my curve is mostly a generic phone, plus lots of games, and occasional quick internet access while shopping. So not sure outtages are much impace to me, but not having a ready game to distract me would be very challenging!

[lea]

ill back it up today since you asked, thanks for the reminder!

[wasson]

I am about to back up mine, as AT&T is sending me a new Curve to replace mine (dust under screen)

[Comet]

fallback to the laptop...not a good option though, you get spoiled with the little critter by your side.

[sharonwagner]

Back up the BB takes only a short time and certainly provides great peace of mind. I would hate to have to reenter all those calendar dates, addresses, etc.

[Pete Sake]

I Had To Use My Palm Treo And Gmail When My Mail Went Out, Still Employeed Though So I Did Something Right..lol But If I Lost My Bb Id Go Ape Sh@t,that Why I Need Warden Security For My Bb, To Erase Everything Thing Instantly From My Home To Where Ever My Phone Is, Is Reassuring....

[bluesource]

nothing really...I would just go and check my email account that it is connected to. Ever since I have had a blackberry, I have only experience two such incidents that I did not get any email....
but one thing for the lost blackberry...they should have a feature that when you are away from your device (sensor on your holster) that the device automatically locks up........I can't tell you how many times I have lost my device from leaving it accidentally in the taxi cab

[r1ckynutz]

I dont know what I'd do w/o out my BB and ive only had it for a day!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kathryn]

I back it up every morning before I go to work. That way if something (shudder) happens, I'm only one day behind.

[adrisen]

Back up what is that? I do it about once a week that is if I remember

[dmevis]

In spite of the high cost of a BB without a "plan", I would immediately buy a new BB.

[moodyj]

I would be so thankful that at least I back it up once a month if not more. I know that its just a material thing and can be replaced...

altough I would miss those photos I took, that video I found, my music tracks, and then those in between emails I would miss, and the lack of phone book synch, no more looking up directions and locations of stores or restaurants...

aww crap that would suck, I dont know what I would do! hehe

[Fripp]

I curled up into a little ball and cried.

[DBC]

Call the insurance in, that's what it's there for. In case sh#t happens! )

[mj2007]

I'd just have to get another one, if mine got lost or stolen. Would be a huge bummer though. I wasn't affected by the outage, but if I was, I'd have had to rely on my virtual desktop at home for email, which is a pain.
