Not looking good for BB at VZW

**gregs87** · 08-04-2011, 12:58 PM

I was just at the VZW store getting an iphone4 (and no, I am not trolling - my storm died and they had NOTHING.) and the reps were actually talking people out of BB's. One girl was actually having to argue with the guy that she WANTED a Bold. She was getting ticked. Pretty sad.

There is already a thread on this sort of thing.

A thread???? Too many threads.

OP, new devices are coming, they don't have them today. Guess you're SOL.

I think when it comes to sales, you want to sell the latest and greatest. Blackberry doesn't fall in that category at this time. So it makes sense that they are not pushed.

They try to sell the feature phones so their paychecks are bigger I think.

I have heard from quite a few people that their iPhone battery suck when they first get it. Usually if you let it drain completely a couple times it gets better. I know that I usually go 36 hours between charges. Androids battery's are no better. If you are looking for really good battery life you may want to look at the new bold, and torch that will be coming out soon. Bb's always have GREAT battery's.
