Robin Hood Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 I want to subscribe with CiteFido, they give the choice of 2 BlackBurries, CFurve 8520 and Curve 9300 (3G), both cost 30$. Can anyone help me because I'm lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Hood Posted July 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Iphone . Too expensive, and with expensive contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehumanmacbook Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 My dad had a Curve 9300, pretty sturdy; checked email with it, browsing was so-so. Typical BB - great endurance, sometimes you wish you had a bit more. Froze at odd times. Stay away from water... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clever Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 If those are the only choices get the latter (9300) But you should really consider investing in an iphone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithril Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 They are both entry-level BlackBerries (ie. terrible compared to other Berries and phones in general). 9300 has GPS and 3G, more RAM, but no flash. In my experience, BlackBerries are terrible smartphones for the regular consumer. If you want a smartphone, get an iPhone, Galaxy, or HTC Arrive or Sensation. If you really want a BlackBerry, get a Bold. The BlackBerry Storm and those Curve models suck. Also, I have an iPhone with the CityFido plan so I'm not sure how you see iPhones as having terrible contracts. Don't get a data plan and the cost stays $35/month.

But yeah. If you're heading to med 1, get an iphone. That's the true way to go. Newer iphone supposedly coming out december/january apparently though.

A-Stark Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Of those choices I can't think of any reason not to go for the Curve 9300 3G. My brother has one and has been pretty happy with it. I'm still using a frustrating but resilient Curve 8330. I'll probably get a new phone after Med 3 in the fall some time, but I am feeling allergic to contracts so it will be pricey. Heavily pondering an iPhone, and I'll admit that my only qualm is that I'm a heavy BBM user. But it makes the most sense since my iTouch is only 8 GB...

apache Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 RIMM is getting killed, I'm lucky I pulled out when they were trading round 60 a share, they're hovering at about 28 now, that's almost 65 percent market cap in 4 months RIMM is dyyyying...

I believe they can win back marketshare if they keep with QNX and ditch their narrowmjndedness We're totally jacking the thread but ya, i bought at 25. Made myself a few bucks as its slowly rebounding. I think RIMM is too large to fall without a fight, they have one shot to restructure and get back to doing the stuff they know how to do and stop trying to appeal to the mainstream lifestyle market. If they can manage that I think they'll be back up in a year or 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
