[Cynamonne]

Who needs an iPod?

[rayman21186]

I use mine as an entertainment/lifeline device. I'd be lost without it.

I love the coolness of the phone, but even more importantly looking up information when I'm away from home or out of town. Music when I'm out for a walk, but Facebook and ICanHasCheezburger sites for entertainment during a boring work meeting!

[Nozzles Brewin]

I use it for both as well, keep up to date on firehouse, fire engineering etc..

[creepers]

My 8530 is for work, pandora, and keeping up with crackberry,

My 9530 for a mobile tv when I feel like lugging it around.

mmmmmm love it for pandora!! who needs an ipod?? not me! mines collecting dust!!
love that i can tether!! instant e-mail notifications!! saves my arse when i don't have to hurry to a pc! love my 8530! (just got a new one today!, cracked the screen on the other one yesterday ) and for crackberry love!

[JRF_1986]

I mainly use mine for (bought it for) chatting and Facebook, etc. But, recently my dad asked me to help him out, as I'm jobless right now, and so I use it to email in important things for his small business. So I kinda use it for work, but it's main purpose is to keep me connected and in touch with my closest friends and family.
Oh, and yeah, crackberry app used just as much as my FB and Twitter4BB app, maybe even more

No female business uses rocking a 8530? o.0

[Jude526]

It is my lifeline. My only phone. Sometimes I have to take a call from work if it is my day off and they need to reach me. But mainly personal use.
I love it. Can't ever go back to a dumbphone. BB has me very spoiled.

[diegonei]

C'mon now... I know ther are more than 29 of us here :P

[SapphireStar]

Actually, I do use it for my small business; I can see the emails from my client right away when he sends work files. Then I can schedule that into the rest of my day.

Forgot about that part

I was starting to feel lonely

Keep them coming guys!

Oh, and btw, we seem to have a rate of 1 female owner for each 3 male owners. Will this hold?

[jrorion5]

Love it. Primarily for personal use - got rid of cable/internet at home and needed to keep up on email and the kids!

[Violet17]

My curve is mostly personal, I'm a student and an intern for one of my professors. My curve has saved my b*tt more than once because of its email capabilities. It's not "business" use exactly, but more than simply personal.

At this point, I don't think I can live without it. I schedule my kids' sports stuff, my finals, study groups, intern stuff...everything!

[kyrillos13]

My 8530 is my first BB/smartphone and after just a couple of months with it I know I've made the right choice when I bought it instead of an iPhone or an Android phone. It does a great job of keeping me in touch with friends and family as well as helping me keep organised. My favourite things about my bb are multitasking, easy access to news, data tethering, great keypad and its compact size.

Exactly....Another great thing about my BB all my music goes with me everywhere...

That's even truer for me today as I just finished sorting out all the quirks on the mp3 files I had. Now all songs belong to the right band/album!

I bought it for business. Does not mean I don't have fun with it.

[RWWackostu]

As a parent, husband, employee and a local part time elected official, my Berry has become a lifeline to all the different side of me. I tell people that "It's not a phone, it's an electronic life manager".

[kwkid]

I use mine primarily for business, but it also gives me a lifeline to the wife and kids. I actually tracked my usage on it for a month and I was amazed to find that over 50% of my usage was on one program, eReader. Seems as if I read more books with my BB than anything else.

[cinamini]

It's multi purpose of course. I use my calendar, email, password keeper (I work in healthcare and everything requires multilple logins and passwords to access) and documents for work related things. Of course texting, calls, games and apps for personal stuff. It's a fab phone and I don't know how I managed without a smart phone for so long!

Finally! I thought there were none!

[moochelle]

Mine is used mainly for personal use.


I am one of the folks that said blackberries were stupid and I would never have one because nobody needs to be that connected all the time...

I now keep a spare charged battery with me at all times... It is with me every waking moment.
