Well let me see. I was 49 at the time. I was in need of a new phone since my old dumb phone didn't even have bluetooth for hands free driving. I stopped in the store and got shown a bb.
I was also looking for a usb modem to use with my laptop. The guy told me I could tether the bb at a cheaper cost then a usb modem would cost me. So I bought it and used it and tethered with it and it made my life simpler and less expensive.
Other then that nothing earth shattering happened.
