Almost got a 9930 from Sprint but...

my wife stopped me. :p

Couple of issues.

1. I already have Sprint 9330 from work and a new phone at work is not happening.
2. Have a dumbphone from my dad's family plan.
3. My wife has T-mobile Bold 9700 and her T-mobile contract doesn't end till end of this year.
4. If I am getting a phone she also wants one, but then it would cost us double and double activation fees. Plus T-mobile termination fees.
5. The phone is expensive. 200$ + 36$ activation + 60$ for phone plan + tax.
6. It costs 20$ to get BES on the Sprint 9930. if I don't get it, then I have to forward my emails to my personal phone, but would't be able to respond. Unless I carry 2 blackberries.
7. The OS is the same. The only difference it finally runs fast. (Not that much excitement)
8. QNX Phones are coming....

You really want the first batch of QNX handheld devices after all the issues with the Playbook? Good luck..lol

I have the same sentiments... I'm getting the 9930 to hold me over until the QNX phones have all of the bugs out of them...

brilliant post.

First QNX will be touch screen. Unless you want that keyboard taken away. Then get the 9930 now and wait as others said.

Hopefully with QNX being out on the playbook alot of the issues will be worked out!
