^^^^^ exactly what he said. Still looking for a good priced 9900

Hello my names Evie, I'm 21..from california usa & my blackberry habit began at the tender age of 16 with the 8310, then went from the 9000, 9700, 9780, 9790, 9900 then the 9930 when I switched to CDMA. I'm forever BlackBerry loyal, an apple iphone sits in my drawer collecting dust, a regret i will forget.. it serves as a lesson for me. I can do other useful things with like it use it as paperweight so my hw doesnt fly away when i need to do alot of homework at starbucks...or sometimes it just sits there, and does nothing for me at all:cool:

my bbberry phone is like the ex girlfriend who i tried to stray away from but she always takes me back, with arms wide open..

blackberry by choice,

peace

Hi my name is Rob, I got hooked on my blackberry 7 years ago and since then I've carried a lot of blackberries. My fianc� was formally in the Apple crowd, but I got her converted over with a 9900 with a 16GB Playbook.

My journey started from a supervisor who recommended it over my old Sanyo dumb phone. I started with a Pearl 8110, then graduated to the Curve 8310. Had a bit of a time travel phase after I switched to my current provider and switched temporarily to a used Electron 8700r (to which I still have as a backup phone). I flirted with the Pearl Flip and the Bold 9000, and briefly used Curve 3G until settling into the Torch series starting with the 9800 and settling on the 9810 which use along with my 16GB Playbook.

I will be keeping my 9810 until BB10 rolls out with a slider. I will be forever hooked on BlackBerry. I may change the model, but I will NEVER change the brand

Now when she has problems... she is demanding telling me to go on CB and fix her phone.

So she is somewhat supportive now... except for my late night/early morning romances on CB.

I'm glad to hear that it's all working out!

Hi, I am mrskycar and I am addicted to BlackBerry. It was all because of the holster combined with the red light and trackpad. I could always get a quick check on the phone. I can't part with BlackBerry now otherwise I start to get lost in the world.

I wake up thinking of Blackberry 10. I go to sleep thinking of Blackberry 10. I have things to do, but I literally just spent the last 5 hours sitting at my computer refreshing Crackberry forums every 3 minutes.

I need help.

Hello, I am technology-buzz and I am addicted to BlackBerry.

I started with a Blackberry 7290, bought of a sketch vendor in New York, new in the box. It was amazing, I was addicted, and I loved wearing the holster, then about 2 years later it feel through my couch and it hit a spike and the screen was cracked, and I was devastated, but I still have the phone and I plan to do a full restore eventually, later I got a 8900 without a data plan, as I was a student and it was expensive, but alas T-Mobile caught on and I had to pay for data so the phone went back, but I was hooked on the New BB OS. Months went by, and I searched for a deal, and I saved every cent even skipping on lunch to save my lunch money on the last week , and then I bought it, the Bold 9700, and I could pay for the data. That was the best time ever, and I loved the phone, but then I got lured away, I gave the Bold to my Dad, and got a Vibrant... It was good initially but I missed my BB, and later I was able to get a Galaxy Nexus, and it was nice, but then BB10 rumours came out, and I knew that would be my next phone, I then spent more of my money on RIM's stock and prepared for the launch, but then BAM, it hit me literally, I was riding my bike and I got hit by a car and my Nexus was destroyed, and then it was confirmed that BB10 would be delayed to March, I called T-Mobile, and expected nothing, but I explained my situation, and a AWESOME T-Mobile Rep gave me a NEW Bold 9900, for 36 dollar, no contract, no extra charges. I was floored, and I was so happy, I was back, and I am so excited. I cant wait to fire it up and then relive the the glory days. To conclude, I am addicted, and when I graduate in 2016 as a Software Engineer the first place that I will apply will be BlackBerry Limited.

Hi I'm mike, I'm 24 years old and I'm a crackberry-aholic!!!

Hi i'm hafeez. 26 years old coming to 27. Have been a CrackBerry Addict since Nov 2011. Still new, yeah i know :D

Hi everyone. I'm Darlene and I'm 32. I may have confessed my CB addiction before, but I want to confess again. I became a CrackBerry addict in 2009. My first smartphone ever was a red BB 8320 with the trackball. Then I got a blue-gray Curve 8520 with the trackpad. I was hooked on the physical keyboard from day one. I would spend hours on it. I like how smooth it looked, how it felt in my hand. I took my BB everywhere - it never left my side. The only reason I left BB was I couldn't afford to keep it anymore.

In the back of my mind I wanted to return to my crack habit. ;-) No other phone I owned gave me the same feeling. It was by accident I went back to BB. I became disillusioned with Cricket and went back to T-Mobile. I reactivated my old 8520 last September and now I am back on the crack! LOL. Even after not using a qwerty for years, I was able to easily get back in the BB saddle. :-)

I always check for that LED notification light and get anxious if it doesn't blink for a while. If I get up in the middle of the night and see that red light, I have to check my universal inbox. I still spend hours on it and it never leaves me. My boss is always telling me to stay off my phone, but I sneak peeks when he's not looking. I go on CB daily to read the blogs and forums. I defend BB to anyone who puts it down. I promote BB10 to everyone and ask other BB owners about what they love (or hate) about their BBs.

I feel different, like I stand out from the crowd with BB. BB is the underdog and I love to root for the underdog. I am counting the days till I can go to T-Mobile and buy my Z10! Proud to be a CrackBerry addict for life! :-)

I think I've gotten to the point of being a crackberry-head... Anyone seen bob saget?
