Probably until QNX phones drop...or a better Bold comes out.

I'm a self confessed phone "hore" - I tend to switch when a new device arrives.

Someone said this earlier but I think a fair time to keep a phone is until the next big OS change. So until QNX is on phones....which means until 2015 lol.

Until that thing doesnt work anymore!

Until the next Blackberry line-up is released (as long as that line-up is running QNX...)

Stop by Starbucks again for that Machiato with a double shot???

Thanks, I needed that Qb! But really, are we that desperate here? It's like children who have imaginary friends. Hahaha!

Bold 9700 2 months > Bold 9780 6 months (still have it) > Bold 9900 (I think)

Everytime I buy a new BlackBerry, I always tell myself I'm holding on to it for the next 2+ years, but end up getting a new one every 12-18 months. I know people who have used their Bold 9000 going on 3 years and still dedicated to their phone! I'm buying the Bold 9900 at full retail price and want to make the most out of it. I will definitely keep this one for 2+ years (or until the QNX based devices come out).

I bought my 9700 on release and I am still using it today. I'll probably hold onto the 9900 until QNX comes out on bb's.

this phones not even out yet, nor has a release date been set..and we're already talking about lifetime expectancies?
