- So since I am waiting impatiently to switch or at least give an android device a good run! I thought I would ask if any android users are thinking about giving the upcoming BB devices a run? I know spec wise they are getting closer but still a little behind.....not trying to start a torch on platform or the other, just curious!02-02-11 09:06 PMLike 0

- It all depends on you. I couldnt stand the Evo and came running back to blackberry. Some people feel the opposite. It really depends on what you use your device for.02-02-11 09:24 PMLike 0
- with what they have currently and even with the rumored devices i wont be back anytime soon. RIM still has alot evolving to do02-02-11 09:26 PMLike 0
- I actually went back. I picked up the 9650. I had a Droid Incredible. It was a really cool phone but I felt really comfy with the BB gadget. I guess I'm one of those addicts. Also the emails I need for work always got pushed to my BB in an instant and with my Droid it didn't. The Androids have a lot more then the BB but the BB has exactly what I need.02-02-11 09:27 PMLike 0

- Nope, it hasn't even crossed my mind to go back to BB or even give the upcoming devices a shot. Switched to Android last August and couldn't be happier with that decision. I do think Blackberry is progressing,but believe that Android will always be one step ahead.

Basically if he says he won't be back anytime soon that means Android is providing him with the better overall experience. And that's saying a lot.
Now with Android in his pocket Howarmat can be found walking the dog, going to buy milk at the supermarket, and eating Frosted Flakes for breakfast.Last edited by Mr. Marco; 02-02-11 at 10:13 PM.

It is great, I get my emails quickly. Everything is great on my Droid Incredible. I love this device. And thanks to Matt........I took his advice on the 1800 mAh battery. I get a full day on it and still have juice on it. I have two and the wall charger too. All in all, I don't see me returning to BB. I have two friends who are making the switch and this will be a first time smartphone for a friend, the other is a BB user. He is like a kid waiting for his birthday to come...........he wants it now should have it by the weekend.02-03-11 12:08 AMLike 0 - This is the most profound and important response you need to look at in this entire thread. Howarmat was at one time an ancient BlackBerry guru who lived alone in a small cave at the top of a mystical mountain (whereabouts unknown) and spent most of his time floating above the ground with his legs crossed in deep deep meditation.

The only thing I miss is the battery life of my Bold(which was decent), but thats why they make extended batteries which I will be picking up soon. I had the OG droid which was awesome but I was scared to change and returned it. The Droid 2 was awesome(for the 3 days I had it) for all the support behind it, but I hate the horizontal sliders which is why I now have the Droid Pro. It kind of sucks that there's not a lot of developer support behind the Pro yet so hopefully that changes soon.02-03-11 12:24 AMLike 0

You've convinced me to switch.

So, I'll be stuck for 2 years at least! Looking forward to it!

The car dock is absolutely amazing.
I'm still learning but it just gets better and better.
Oh yeah, did I mention it's fast? It's fast.

I have an HTC Incredible now, but there are things about BB that I miss. The biggest thing is simplicity. All these widgets, scrollable screens, and thousands of useless apps are cool, but I do miss the simplicity BB offers. Many people call the Storm 2 "junk" and I had my share of hardware issues, but those were mostly my fault. I cried and moaned to Verizon until they agreed to swap my 9550 for the Incredible. The first couple months with the Inc were great, but sometimes I regret doing all that crying. The new Storm coming looks promising to me. I'm not into all the specs and details that alot of you are into, so to answer your question OP, yes I have thought about going back to BB.02-03-11 12:11 PMLike 0
