I'm thinking about getting the Blackberry Bold when it comes to T-Mobile. AT&T has it already.
All I know is that the Blackberry TV commercials are fantastic...I mean, whoever that guy is who they got to do the v.o. for those is really something!

A day late ... but I'll throw in my 2 cents. It all comes down to Google A s.
I use Google Calendar to schedule my time, so I stayed with the Blackberry because of the Google A s integration. When I'm in the city and I get a call for a booking or audition, I can update my calendar on the Blackberry and it's going to get sync'd with my Google A s account. If your agents have access to your Calendar, they can add the session themselves - avoiding the phone call and saving time for both. Earlier this year contact syncing became an option so I can stick with my master resource and sync up all of the others.
And it's never failed. _________________ Genus |

I too have the BB Curve. Have had it for a few weeks, only uploaded browser software today so have been in survival mode. Also don't have it synched to all my email addresses so I'm only kinda half using it. Just need to bone up on it.
But with a family plan and 1400 shared minutes between 2 of us, I'm paying $150 a month. Ouch! _________________ sitting at #8, though not as present as I'd like to be. Hello!

I love my crackberry. It did take a little getting used too since the keys are small and I accidentally hid the web icon yesterday and can't find how to bring it back but the thing is brilliant. I used it to get and read scripts from when I was in Hawaii. I also was able to take pics from it and post them to facebook with two clicks (not so proud of that since facebook is a time suck but I had to show hubby that i was sitting on the beach, you know?), and, if I recall, I emailed you from the beach too!
I got a great little case for it: http://www.blackberrysource.com/store/catalog.asp?item=1434
It's big but I've never carried the phone on my pocket or even worn it.
In all, I love it and it was worth it. Our plan is pretty good but we don't use the phones all that much so we only have 400 whenever minutes and only a couple of times in the past few years have we gone over (always coincided with a new baby). $80 includes $20 for the b'berry add on, $10 for the unlimited hot spot calling and $6 for equipment protection. It costs too much for me not to protect it.
Good luck with your decision! _________________ 006 member of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Mic. Bonded by sound.
