No Boost section?

312 · Thread Author #1 01-14-2010, 12:52 PM

Now that Boost officially has the BEST BlackBerry plan ever to hit the US- how come they don't have a section here on the board??

$60/month unlimited EVERYTHING!

I second that! Just ordered my 8330 today, should have it by the middle of next week! I can't wait!

I almost signed up today, but they're only allowing their $250 8330. I just can't justify that much for an old phone. How long until you get it?

a boost section is definitely needed - people have been running 8330s, 9630s, etc for a while. and now the cdma boostberry is finally official!

I agree! I am here as a new BB owner and new to Boost. Now with Boost having its own BB that operate on 5.0 unlike prior 8330's, there may be a lot of carrier specific issues and questions that arise.

I think there should be a boost section as well. Since they now go through RIMS servers they should have one.

I think there should be a seperate prepaid section with all the pre paid carriers getting there own pre paid sub sections. Im getting my BBCurve soon. And they are starting out with the Curve. Who knows what other BB's they will be adding to thier line up soon??

Love my new 8330's. Sold the 8350i's for 200 each, so i am only out a 100 bucks for new phones w/ 3g! Love the speed! Tether works great as well!

Having never owned a smartphone the 8330 is AMAZING. And we definitely need a boost section, someplace to call our own. =)

To those who are using the Boost 8330:How do you like it? How much room to you have for apps? I've read OS 5.0 takes up a lot of memory. How well does RIM's servers work on Boost's network? I agree, there should be a Boost Forum now that they officially offer Blackberry.

If boost gets a forum so should metro. Hasn't metro been around longer than boost?

Not sure. However I heard of Boost years before I found out about Metro. Boost does need a sub forum off of Sprint. For realzzz.

I also think that Boost needs at least a sub-forum of their own. I just purchased a Boost 8330. I'm waiting untill my current Boost plan is up(the 25th) and then hopefully porting my number over to the BB. I have heard that some people have had problems with this. Does anyone have any advice?

UPDATE:The porting process took about 40 minutes. I was about 5 minutes in to the call when the CSR asked what phone I would be activating. I said a Boost-branded BB. He said "Are you sure it is a Boost phone?" When I said yes, he transfered me to a "BB specialist" She had me go through an activation procedure, put me on hold for 20 minutes and then informed me that the computers were down and she would'nt be able to activate the phone and to call back in 24 hours. Just as she was about to end the call, she said her computer showed it going through and she was able to complete the activation. A bit of a bumpy ride.
