Blackberry

[Faye Parfait]

I have the Blackberry Bold and I love it. No touchscreen phones for me. I don't trust them and I hate getting fingerprints all over the screen!

A few weeks ago, I lost the black leather case it came with. SO upset. Tried ordering a new one from an Amazon vendor (it was advertised as the 'original Blackberry Bold case') but I think it is a fake?! The leather feels totally different (less soft) and it doesn't fit as flawlessly around the phone. I'm going to try the official Blackberry accessories retailer my service provider recommended instead. I didn't realise there was one in my country before. There aren't that many Blackberry users here!

mordant: what fun applications did you download? i have a BB curve and i LOVE ITTT, but i need some fun apps for when im bored in class!

 

[mordant]

^Well, my favorite so far is iheartradio. This might not help you when you're in class since you'll need headphones for it and you'll definitely get caught in class. The others are just chat and social networking applications (I'm a social networking-wh*re ). I'm trying to find more applications that will get me through my commute that doesn't require internet since I'm underground for most of it anyway.

I have Curve 8310. My classmates say I've turned into a geek.
I love it, I'm never bored during my class. I have only FB and MSN messenger so far, but it works for me.

Thanks for the link. The app loads slowly for me, but I love that site.

Still i cant use the fmylife app on my 8300

^My bf commented on how disturbing it is that I play with my BB so much. I can't help it, it's revolutionized my life! But then he said that if I get brain cancer from it, he's not coming to my funeral. Oh well, back to TwitterBerry!

[Mods_MS17]

I'm thinking of getting a blackberry bold..what is it like? Or is the Curve a better alternative?

 

[seahorseinstripe]

Mods_MS17, if u can get the bold, get the bold!
i used to have the curve 8320 because i thought it's more affordable back then, the bold was just first came out and it's hard to get and if it's available, it's very expensive then.

the curve is a great berry, i loved it but deep inside i still want the bold, and the feature are so much better. the memory on bold allows me to read all of my emails that couldn't be done on my curve before, also the screen are so much better, and the camera.
i need a better camera on my phone because in my work, sometimes i need to go hunting for stuffs and took pic to send to my supervisor on email, so having a berry with a good camera and memory is a must to me.

the bold is slightly bigger and heavier than the curve whether it's 8320 or 8900 (javeline).
the camera on 8900 is nicer too, but i just don't really like the shape of the phone. it's too casual. i like the corporate look on my bold
