Got my Bold....

I'm back! I had my Storm, but was unhappy, so I switched to the iPhone. After a few months, I got that itch again. Now I'm back with the Bold and so far am enjoying it. Seems to have everything. Hopefully, it performs well...

I'm just glad to be back on Crackberry and back with my BB!

I am the most wise consumer I know. I do lots of research and read reviews, check out forums, etc. After months maybe even a year of waiting, I switched services after 9 years and bought the Bold. That was April 30, 09 and today is June 24 and I have had to replace it not once, twice but three times already and my 4th new phone now is still not living up to its name. I managed to get four lemons. Luckily the warranty center is nearby my daily commute. First it was syncing issues between my calendar and Outlook and locking up all the time. After diagnostics, several software errors came up, so ATT gave me a new one. Second was blue-tooth errors, it simply would not play to my Motorolla S9 and the phone was locking up very frequently, even if I took the battery out and replaced it, it was just a clock ticking in the middle of my screen, so they gave me a new one. Third, while browsing on a fully charged phone, it locked up and would not power on. So I took it in, the battery was fine, but the phone just had a hardware issue and was dead. Not even my contacts could be switched, luckily I used BB Manager to do a restore on my current phone, which by the way black screens a lot and locks up. I am done with this. I love the phone when it works, but it so frequently does not work, it's just annoying. Who has time for that?:eek:

Way to kill my high, lol...

I don't mean to degrade or make your issue sound unimportant, but the more appropriate thing to do would have been to create a new thread, which would also have let you receive more responses to your issues. Hijacking mitch23s' thread does nothing to resolve, or address the issues your experiencing.

Again, I don't mean to sound like the one to come in and point to the rule book, but I'm simply making the point for future reference.

Well, back on topic. Welcome back mitch23! Good luck with the BOLD.

Thanks Iceman! I'm so excited to be back on CB. I still visited here the whole time I had the iPhone. I just got to get back into the swing of things with the Berry. It's amazing how it has all the basic features that my iphone was lacking, plus some.

Good to have you back Mitch! We all knew you would be back sooner or later!

Chris

at last I got my BB Bold and way to go to enjoy such handy gadgets
