Yeah yeah yeah schorchy...BTW....I figured out how to get Outlook on the BB for LU users



Download the Outlook Sync Google made and then download the Google Blackberry Sync and it will use the Google Calendar as the 3rd party and yet you can still add events on either 3 devices and all 3 will work together making sure they are all 3 up to date




Also, Sprint users look out for the BB Bold coming out Feb 11....I just got my BB but I'm going to test my luck with Sprint and see what I can do.

I have some friends with the Bold and I am seriously jealous. It is lightning quick and the wifi connectivity works much better than I anticipated.

That screen is serious too...


I just got 2 more coaches on the Blackberry and they are freaking out with everything it can do compared to their last phone...I mean they are literally giggling about it

Sly if I stay sync'd up can all of my programs and settings and everything switch over to the Bold? That was the good thing about the Treo, get a new one and everything switch's over for you

I do. And I love it. Although it is my first smartphone. So if you already have a blackberry you might not like the touch screen aspect of it as some people just aren't down with that. It still will lag occasionally but there's supposed to be another OS update coming out soon, and the previous update was a huge improvement in every aspect. The first time you use it, you will most likely not like it. It takes some getting used to.

The Curve 8900 is supposed to be just as good, if not better, than the Bold (depending on preferences).

Oh, and you can get them for free at Walmart.com. Not that HMO ever pays for his phones, though.

I have the Curve...we have a micro sd card too but rather then taking off the battery finding an adapter it's just much easier to connect using bluetooth or usb

Call me old fashioned (who knew Id be using that term to describe a Blackberry) but I got an unlocked 7250 from a friend of mine. Any of the more experienced Blackberry users have insight on this model?

For those of you, as I do, who have providers that force you to pay per month for a tethering option: A one time fee for an app that allows you to tether all you want http://www.tetherberry.com/

I am interested in hearing feedback on the connection speeds of the TetherBerry app. Verizon now essentially charges $30/month to tether in order to have same fees as their aircard. A one-time $39 fee is certainly appealing.
