BlackBerry, but, I feel like I'm the only one :(

Anyone else out there voluntarily using a BB?

What went into your decision when choosing whatever device you're on?

    Bless you!


    Oh, not a sneeze. Why on earth would you chose a blackberry?? My last phone was a blackberry. I upgraded to an iPhone. I'm in lurve. Makes my bb look like a piece of junk

    I used to have a BlackBerry which I chose for my upgrade. I do really like them! I was just very disappointed when the charging port broke so easily on mine so have decided to try another one for a bit. Depending how this handset goes (Sony Xperia), I'll see whether I go back or not! I very nearly got the Torch though.

    Prefer the tactile feel of the mechanical keyboard, BBM is handy for personal reasons like hubby has a BB for work so its easier to communicate. Have thought of getting an Android device, but also like supporting a Canadian company.

    Also bought a Playbook on sale so tethering for data and accessing all my files, messages, etc is something I wouldn't have the benefit of with another device type.

    IPhone is cool, but, I'm not an Angry Birds kinda person, so, the appeal of the app store is minimal.

    BB are great messaging phones. They went in the wrong direction should of never went consumer should of stuck with business users.

    @hannah, to say they've had some issues with their handsets, both design and quality is definitely not an understatement

    @artic, totally agree on both points!

    I guess I'm too loyal of a consumer. :)

    i-phone i-phone i-phone!!.... Waiting on the 5 to come out to get my upgrade. I won't be one of the crazies that wait outside the Apple store to get it but it won't be long after.

    Did listen to a guy once try to convince me that his BB was better becuase of the e-mail capability, said it was more like that of a PC...whatever...

    i love my bb for email. i can't comment on whether it's better than on iphone because i've never used, but, it's pretty rockin on a bb :laugh:

    definitely a business/enterprise product that has lost it's hold of the marketplace. sad to see.

    I think it's more because my old one would just randomly not work. No reason. It was never abused, I never threw it or dropped it. I didn't have too much stuff on it. It would just randomly not work. It was always right when I would need it most too.

    I have an android now and I am in love with it! I thought about an iPhone, but I'm just not sure.

    I have a Blackberry that I got for my last upgrade. I don't really use any of the apps though so it's kinda wasted on me. :ohwell:
