I definitely wouldn't let strangers use my phone. Gosh, I only let my family make calls if I can dial the number. There's been too many times I've let friends "make a call" and they ended up just going through texts and photos instead - absolutely hate that.
Since I'm a new user to BB, I think i'd let people look and touch it for a while, maybe for like 10 seconds maximum since they'll be amused that I changed my phone recently and I wouldnt be thaaat protective. This might continue on for like maybe 1 more week, but after that, can predict that I'll be alil but more possessive. I won't want anybody going through my stuff! So NO TOUCHING in 1 weeks time
I let a friend make a call with my BB Pearl 9100 once...
NEVER let someone with greasy hands touch your BlackBerry.. He recently got an iPhone 4 It's payback time
Before I got my BB and was still using one of the generic " dumb" phones ... I would've said yes to this question .
But yesterday on the jobsite , some guy came up to me and asked me that . After I convinced myself he was only asking to borrow my phone and not my wife , I told him no cuz my battery was almost dead . If you can call an 80% charge almost dead
But since I've got my BB , it's completely hands off to anyone that doesn't share my Bday and exact name .
Anyone else like this ? Do you let others handle your blackberry...or is that a matter that would end up with the " touchee " sporting a hand cast for a few months ?
No. Simple as that. Bad things can happen if you did that. Never ever have I done that and never will. Friends and family excluded.

It depends on the situation for me, if it is an emergency then yes of course. But if it is someone who just wants to make a call then no, unless it is a friend I have some firends who do not have long distance where I have unlimited then yeah, but only for friends. Strange people not a friggen chance, same with people who just want to look at my phone you can go to the store and see the phone.
No, unless your family or friends.
If It was an emergency, I would make the neccessary call to the rite people and if a stranger needed to talk to somebody, I would be holding the phone whilst it being on Loudspeaker.
