    At this very moment I am huddled in a corner of my home going through ( withdrawal ) the pro's and cons of going out right now and purchasing a brand new sparkling BB9900.

    The problem is I just purchased a new 9360 in Feb 2012, and was then given a 9810 a month ago by a friend who jumped ship and got an iphone but is back now with a 9900, but for some reason these are not enough for me. How many BB's will and does it take to feed this addiction?

    Before you answer I've seen some of your signatures and they read like a scientific formula!

    My lustful addiction started when I began to fondle the 9900 every time I was anywhere near a phone store. Then I'd go online to view photos of her, she'd take my breath away running my fingers over her buttery smooth keyboard stroking her...ehum ok sorry.

    The love affair has run its course and now its time for the next move, and thats to bring her home.

    I know 10 is just around the corner but the wait is excruciating I want something new something now something blackberry.

    Pros of getting the Bold
    on sale now for 299$
    7.1 OS
    4G
    8 hours talk time
    8 GB Rom 768 Mb ram
    mobile hot spot
    Something new and different
    cool stuff like
    My area store closes at 6pm

    Cons (now)
    7.0 OS on both 9360 & 9810
    5 1/2 hours talk time
    512 mb
    already have 2 blackberries
    gonna miss the top placed headphone jack
    My area store closes at 6pm

    So as you can see the pros out number the cons for me.

    lol I love the enthusiasm for BB. The 9930 is a beauty of a phone for sure. If you can afford it and if $299 is a "pro" for you, then I'd say go for it.

    I have a feeling this will be the fix you're looking for, atleast until BB 10 comes out.

    love your enthusiasm!

    If you really like the 9900, why not sell the other BB you have or pass it on to your friends or family?

    My list of phone I've used in the past few months or so:
    BlackBerry Curve 8900
    BlackBerry Curve 9360
    BlackBerry Bold 9700
    BlackBerry Torch 9810
    BlackBerry 7230
    BlackBerry Storm 9500

    Also, i've tried iPhone 4, Lumia 800, and Galaxy Note.

    Before those, i have:
    BlackBerry Bold 9000 (My first BB, before that i was on iPhone for a couple of years.)
    BlackBerry Bold 9900

    ---

    I have just decided to settle down, thus went back to my Bold 9900 and gotten rid of the rest. To me it is the best BlackBerry in the market right now. Something like the last, and best of the BBOS 7 devices. Which i'll keep even after BB10. It just looks so good!

    (I originally wanted to keep the 9360 instead, cause its such a great little device. Able to do all my 9900 can, but at a much cheaper price and a smaller package. It looks very nice too. But after going back to my Bold 9900, i remembered how much i love it.)

    So you see, i've had the 3 devices that you have as well. So hopefully, this will help in your decision.

    Thanks guy's, I've come to terms with my addiction and just purchased the Bold 9900!

    She's charging up right now, can't wait it's like Christmas time July!

    Yes Alex I think I will pass the 9360/9810 on to a couple of friends instead of putting them in the drawer with the 8310 ( yes the roller ball is indeed missing ).

    Besides checking the start guide and the bold 9900 forum here, any insight or suggestion of things I should look out for or do?!

    @Leopard78OL I'm hoping this'll hold me till BB10 arrives, does it get any easier?!
    Upgrading my playbook from 16 gigs to 64 gigs doesn't count right?
