- OMG! no wonder blackberry is lost in time. You should give up. Can you say 4G kicks 3G. Try to focus on the whole paragraph instead of the sentence that has ram in it.
Your opinion is why Rim is faltering.
My daddy can kick your daddys but.
I had your opinion once until I tried the dark side and realized in many ways it was better.04-13-12 09:45 PMLike 0 - avt123O.G.Yeah, and what will you do once it has 4G? Move to the train station where the only 4G towers are. Oh it has 4G but I want 5G now. "Better" is in the eye of the beholder. I'm glad your happy with your device. It has to do with what "you" are capable of doing with it. Buying the fastest car does not mean you know how to drive! Haha!
However, when I am in 4G coverage, it is excellent. It is nice to have the option, even if you aren't covered by it 100% of the time.
Also, I would hope someone knows how to drive if they are buying a car.04-13-12 09:53 PMLike 0 - Hey avt, I'm not downplaying 4G whatsoever. I would be more than happy if I could have it also, but it really doesn't make or break my choice to use a BB. I get weary of people complaining about BB not having this or that, when I know for a fact a large pecentage of them cannot master what they are using now. My 9930 rocks on wifi, my car will do 175 mph and I have gone 160 in it across the Idaho/Utah border.
My business associates wife owns a 4s. She doesn't use it for anything but phone calls and she is completely technically illiterate. The only reason she bought it was simply because she could and it was something her peers would be envious of. There is a huge difference from wanting to use something that works best for you and using something that others claim is the best. Shoot me if I ever wake up in a world where strangers opinions define the way I live04-13-12 10:24 PMLike 0 - avt123O.G.Hey avt, I'm not downplaying 4G whatsoever.

My car doesn't let me go past 135 because of the governor.
I have however went 180 in my uncles STI. So much fun.
Also, I didn't think you were downplaying 4G. It just seems like it is a must have for the OP since he lives in a 4G area. I can totally see why some people would not want to buy a 3G only device right now and then be locked into contract for 2 years and all of a sudden 4G is everywhere and you can't use it.Last edited by avt123; 04-13-12 at 10:37 PM.
04-13-12 10:32 PMLike 0 - But.. but.. the other phones come with 1GB of RAM!!!!
This is one of RIM's problems. The public perception is that 1GB is required. If an iDroid thing has a gig of RAM, then customers look at that and see that the phone might be better than one with 768MB.
While the 768MB works just fine, RIM needs to step up the specs of their phones simply to appear on par with the competition. Joe Average doesn't care that android is a resource hog and NEEDS a high power phone to work properly, he just sees one as "better than the other".04-13-12 11:20 PMLike 0 - And by then there will be 5G or something else. Technology is progressing so fast, as soon as we own it it becomes obsolete. And by the looks of it the carriers need to play catch up with the devices capabilities. Its almost false advertising when they sell you a 4G phone. If it weren't for the small print that states "check availability in your area". It is really exciting to watch all of it exponentially progress. I owned one of the first cellular phones from At&t. It was a 3 megawatt handset that came in what looked like a grey lunchbox, and at the time it only worked in "select locations". From there to here (Bold in hand) is pretty amazing. Good talking with you avt, see you in the Forums!04-13-12 11:33 PMLike 0
- OMG because every other phone manufacturer isn't stupid enough to have apps stored on RAM instead of the hard drive. By your comment I assume you enjoy getting "this page is too big to load, we are closing you browser"?04-13-12 11:57 PMLike 0

- It would be highly irritating if the browser shut down with that message. However my 9900 browser has never once given me that message, so I don't know what you are on about. How about providing me a link which would make my browser give that message?

Edit- that particular browser problem does not happen anymore with OS7 devices, only happened on devices that came with OS5 and then upgraded to OS6Last edited by belfastdispatcher; 04-14-12 at 03:22 AM.

Apparently phoreoneone has thrown in the towel and has failed to come up with a link to crash the 9900 browser.
Seems funny since the OP made this all about the 9930, people come out of the woodwork and bring in a four year old BB to prove their argument. Just one word comes to mind...starts with a T and ends with a double L.04-14-12 07:12 PMLike 0 - @belfast,

- hmm..
this thread is a load of twaddle...I call three strikes..
1. yes you do need a gmail a/c for an android phone.but there does not need to be any information in that gmail a/c. there is no requirement to have your contacts in that gmail a/c. Nor is there a requirement to sync your phone's contact list with your gmail a/c. .. ergo: google having your contacts = BS
2. anyone who remotely thinks apple takes care of your personal information any better than google ?.................apple = ethical = BS
3. this one it too funny to type... Bing search = good = BS04-15-12 09:19 AMLike 0 -
Apple claims they send aggregate data to their ad deliverers so that individuals can't actually be picked out and I have no reason yet to disbelieve it. Do you have evidence to the contrary?04-15-12 09:34 AMLike 0 - Just a quick neophyte question: will not the browsing experience on any BlackBerry be slightly delayed compared to Android and IOS because all data comes through BB servers compressed??? A little lag for improved data usage seems better for those that have restrictive data plans.
I have Sprint, of course unlimited (but slow).04-15-12 05:00 PMLike 0
