All the doom and gloom nay sayers seems to be running out of steam. The new Z10 is getting
a lot of rave reviews and sales in Canada, UK, and the UAE are looking very good.
A good friend is probably sleeping better now. He uses his Blackberry for everything, and was worried about support, etc. .........I mean STRESSED OUT !!
There's so many people walking around looking at their "hand held communication device", the town council is considering putting padding on parking meters and lamposts.....................;-)
Nuggler the mobile phone I use is an older dumb phone that my daughter gave me because she was getting a "smart" phone. I use the phone for talking to people. The new phones will, apparently, let you surf the web, send or receive e-mails, or watch movies on a
two or three inch screen, which, in my mind, is just short of dopey.
Nobody needs a smartphone and anyone who has never used one will not see the upside at all. I know I didn't before I got one. However it's much handier than you can possibly imagine. If you had one, you'd find it useful for at least one of it's many, many features. I can almost guarantee it.
SLM I just bought a new 30 inch monitor for my computer. A week or so earlier my desktop crashed and I had to buy a new motherboard, CPU, a new tower case and power supply plus a few more items that kicked the hell out of an eight hundred dollar bill
not counting the new monitor.
I don't know how much a new blackberry might cost per year(since they all seem to require at least a two year contract. I'm glad to see Blackberry climbing out of their troubles but I don't think I'm in the market for a smart phone just yet.
Blackberry all the way!!!
I no longer have a landline or a PC. I do have a Magic Jack to back me up just in case. It plugs into my laptop. It's cheap now between the two phones and I can take the Magic Jack with me when I travel, plug it into my computer and have phone access anyway for nothing.
lol... I gave up my land line when I started doing contract work. I missed a really good contract because I was sitting at the hair salon and missed it by minutes. After that I gave up the landline and have my phone with me pretty much always. I have found it incredibly handy.Sounds good.
A couple of family members use cells exclusively.
Depending on what you get, Bell land line rates are through the roof. We still use it, plus an old cell which just calls and answers. Really 20th century, eh:sad8:
Going to google Magic Jack - sounds kinky. ;-)
ew, I like that...yes I do...thanks ♦I think you pug it in directly on your router, so you don't have to have your computer on all the time.
From what I have seen, it is just an iPhone knock off.I,m itchin' to get my new BB.
I have actually contemplated buying a new phone and BB might be my answer

I wonder what effect watching a entire movie on such a small screen might have on the viewer's eye sight.
