My friends and family hate it when I have my BT headset on because they never know if I'm talking to them, someone on the phone or myself. Life without my BB would be more difficult then I could ever imagine, I've tried the Treo route a few times to try to break the addiction and it just won't break.
Learn it, accept the BB addiction.

Ps..yes I do get around the carriers...lol...but Telus seems to have the best coverage by far.03-01-07 11:04 PM - First thing I fire up in the morning is a RDP session to my BES server and watch the stats. Then I fire up another RDP session to my mail server and watch the logs for that. If I see a mail come through and it doesn't hit my BB before my Outlook, I start looking at signal and wondering what's going on.
I still continue to get my hourly e-mails from the script on my personal server that sends me a test e-mail to my BB to let me know that e-mail is working still.03-15-07 07:23 AM - I got my 8703e a little more than a week ago, and I went from the initial hate of it to absolute admiration. Now, I have to have it with me all the time.
I happened upon this site, and so far I like what I see. I also d/l the crackberry launcher for my BB
Yeah, I'm officially addicted.03-18-07 08:45 PM - Kind of a long story. I'll try to keep it brief
I opened a new account with Sprint and was at the end of my 30 trial. I had a regular phone and needed a PDA type as my work had really increased over those 30 days.
I originally wanted the Q, but they didn't have any. The Treos were just too expensive, so I made a quick, last minute pick of the 8703e. Now, I never had any experience with a BB, and the supplied manual was pathetic.
Within two hours of my purchase, I just hated it. Yet, once I found out everything it could do and how versatile it was, I was hooked! Within 24 hours I Couldn't let it go.
My BB experience is one of coincidence, but I don't regret a thing now.03-18-07 09:25 PM - I think if the BB was JUST for email, I wouldn't love it as much.
For example, I was on my way home today, and wanted to get some stamps (you know, I have bills to pay, and these stupid one's have to be mailed in!), so, on my BB I went to Beyond411. In there I entered Staples, and since my 'home' profile is already setup, it knew the zip code to check. Within 5 seconds, I had the address and phone number of the closest Staples to me.
I even called them from within the menu, and verified that they had stamps!!!
1-Nil to the BlackBerry!03-19-07 07:00 PM - I was at the post office the other posting a Phone to some i had one to and had mislaid the Post Code (ZIP to you) and the queue was there and i thought oh well...pass the time..
Opened Opera, Logged In to eBay and got the details....wrote them out on the parcel just in time to pay for the postage...
Sad but i did actually think to myself..not that is cool
