Thinking about jumping on board
Hey all,
This is my first post on crack berry forums and hope it isn't my last :)
So guys I'm thinking of getting myself the new bold 9900 when it hits the Australian stores.
I've always wanted a blackberry, but when it came down to it there were just simply better options in regards to mobile contracts etc at the time of when I've gotten a new phone.
Since the new iPhone is coming out soon, I will most likely be choosing the bb or the iPhone. I currently have a previous generation of the iPhone but I'm kinda over the whole craze and am wanting to try something new. The purpose of this thread being is that I'd like you, the power users of black berry devices to put forward points to why I should get one.
One feature that I do like about iOS is that it seamlessly works with my email,calendar, contacts and music. How does the bb compare with that? Another question being how is the music player on the bb?
I've also never quite grasped the exclusive features that blackberry off (eg. BBM). If someone could please touch base in regards to what bb can offer.
Pretty much I just would like to get a better understanding of the bb platform and make a decision that I am happy with and not take a step back.
If it's any extra value I have also got a MacBook pro and an iPad. But to make things clear, I do not have any sort of bias towards any sort of brand, I'm open to all options (except android, simply because it just seams to me as a clutered iOS). The purpose of my phone is to make calls, send SMS, check emails and calendar... The rest I can do on my tablet and pc.
I hope you guys don't mind spending the time in giving me this crash course in owning a black berry, the lust is there haha :)
Cheers all
