BlackBerry questions

Post by ccb_v2 »

I'm looking into getting a Blackberry Curve but am curious about the apps... are there any cool apps you seem to use a lot? I've been browsing to see what there is... and are you limited on how many apps you can have on the phone? I would imagine so, but is it limited by internal memory only or does it also use the card too, etc. Questions questions...

Thanks!

Speaking as an outsider here, but the impression I got is that the Blackberry doesn't have anywhere near the software library enjoyed by other platforms. Its OS is also more dated in some ways.

What, specifically, are you looking to do with the phone?

Which Blackberry Curve? There are multiple variations. I had one of the original's from a few years ago and it was pretty awful. My girlfriend has the Curve 8520 (I think) and it's pretty awful. She has constant issues with the earpiece not working. Don't get one.

Everyone I know with a BlackBerry (except for one fanboy) has either ditched it, or is currently in the process of ditching it. May I suggest another phone with a good OS? Android, WebOS, I-OS etc...

Also, just a rule of thumb: If you're planning on upgrading your phone's os version, make sure first you have a way of reverting. Some people (my brother) upgrade their phone which worked perfectly fine, only to find the new version really glitchy, and then sit around and complain until you revert it back for them.
