Managed to kill my phone last night, so I've had to order a new one. Blackberry Bold 9700, should be here by Tuesday.

I can't survive without a keyboard so I don't have a lot of options.

Droid 2, LG Ally, Droid Pro. All 3 have decent keyboards.



Bought these for 100 bucks.

That's just because Scottish people can't afford iPhones. I thought about getting an iPhone 4, but I just don't get along with touchscreens.

there's an equivalent app (well, loads actually) for iphone called whatsapp... but yeah, i agree, a native-IM client is pretty good to have

it works cross-platform.  i have it for bb and use it to talk to friends on the iphone and android.  its nowhere near the quality that bbm is though.

I bought Supreme Commander 2 and the DLC pack on the Steam sale yesterday.

Also, I soon need a new phone too, because my two-year old LG KS20 WinMo phone is crashing or locking up every few days now.
It also killed my SD card with a few photos on it.

I want something Android.

that and the hardware keyboard are the only things I miss about my BlackBerry. I also miss the robust email system but ah well. Worth it for an EVO.

I do wonder to myself why people would ever choose a Blackberry over an Android or iPhone but I suppose if you know people with them and want to use that messenger thing it has then you'd have a reason to.

BB's are most popular among 14-year-old girls that want to "communicate" with each other at a party (standing 3m apart from each other) whilst trying to look interesting with their new phones.
Good news though: I'm starting to see more and more people that aren't young teenage girls with bb's.

ontopic: Bought Half life 2: Episode one, planning on getting ep2 once I'm done with this one


e: I don't hate bb's, just saying that because other other phones have apps like Whatsapp now so BB is starting to lose some ground, but it doesn't make em useless.

There is something special about the BB's keyboard that make it so easy and fast to use.
I don't know why, but i can type faster than my old e72 and e71.

Yeah I used my friends Nokia with a keyboard, and it fucking sucked. There's practically no options for phones with keyboards.

BB has the largest marketshare here in under 25s, possibly higher too (and not just 12 year old girls Kamp).  Since everyone has them, BBM is an incredibly powerful tool for networking and keeping in touch.  Whatsapp and all those competitors are simply nowhere near the same level BBM is.

Also, with OS6 BBs have become much, much better.  The browser is touchscreen enabled and very quick, just as powerful as the iphone browser imo.  I've played with the iphone (all gens) and a few android phones and its honestly all preference, the difference between all of them is minuscule.  My dad, for one, has had 3 android phones and the iphone 3GS and 4 and has now gone to the BB Torch and likes it the most out of all.

Its like comparing web browsers at this point to me.  Some like Firefox, some like Opera, Chrome, etc.  Theyre all basically the same with some having different stronger points than others

Oh really? Where are you? I never see anybody with them except one of my flatmates.

I do miss having a keyboard on my android phone (but other Android phones to have qwerty keyboards), but aside from that I'd never want to go back to anything else. I mean BBs have that tiny tiny screen, no thriving app marketplace, only very recently added touch screens etc. They seem really undesirable to me personally.
