I just got a droid 2. I guess I'll have to wait two years now. Now we can stop debating about the droid x vs. blackberry because blackberry is horrible in the first place.

Maybe this will get AT&T to being back the unlimited data plan. Doesnt matter to me either way though, I still have it.
No, all they did in learning that Verizon was getting the iPhone was double the early cancellation fee to stop people from leaving their shitty service.Quote:

I've heard too many complaints about at&t. Glad they decided to swith.
I also had them for 10 years now, same number and all. No real issues here.Quote:

This is totally location dependent... AT&T service is generally good here but I've heard it's terrible on the coasts. It used to be pretty bad in Kansas (where I have a lot of family) while Verizon had excellent service there. mehQuote:

Now that I think about it, I couldnt get service when I was at home for the first two years I had them. But they built a tower right by my house. So I get plenty good service now.
I think Verizon has been doing well with the Droid, and now their profits will go way up with the iPhone in their market. I'm happy for Verizon, because I haven't really had good service with AT&T. In fact, I kinda hate them, and am glad for this. Although I don't think people need to jump on it like crazy, I'm sure the iPhone 5 will be out in half a year.
Oh my fucking god sponge. Seriously im not even going to read your posts they are all the same. "Here is my opinion and your an idiot for having your own and my genetalia is below average and meh meh meh." Im not an idiot for not liking blackberry I've had three and disliked all of them. Yes, you fucking pompus ass the balls thing was a joke. Why so serious all the time. It was supposed to be a cheesy joke. Sign off your fucking computer and go get laid.

I mean it's not 2001 anymore.
The only thing nice about blackberries are the ability for them to be managed through a BES. With the nice phones out in the last 5 years, I don't even know why they are still on the consumer market.
Perfectly capable of using a blackberry. They just suck.
Unlimited data plans are universally going to disappear.Quote:

The most profitable and practical way of doing this is by no longer offering unlimited data plans.
This is unfortionate, however if you have a plan with unlimited data, you are "grandfathered" in. At least that's how it works with Verizon.Quote:

And the trick of the AT&T "call dropping blah blah whine whine new york, seattle, boohoo" is to just switch to EDGE when you need prolonged voice contact. There's no one on the edge network, and it's coverage is denser, so you'll never drop calls.
A friend of mine has a blackberry and I laugh at her for having one, but tbh I have no real knowledge about why they suck. (lol i know)
Give me a list of reasons so I can backup my laughing next time.
Blackberries don't suck. You should feel very ashamed for laughing at her for no reason.
I have a reason, she has a blackberry.
Blackberry is lame. Freezes, glitches, is slow.
there aren't as many stupid pointless games for the blackberry
also the browser sucks
None of those problems are true of the non-touch screen Blackberries except those which nermy just identified.
Not true. I have the storm (touch screen) and two curves (non touch).Quote:

i rather enjoy my old blackberry tbqh
What are you talking about. I had the curve 4 years ago. It sucked then when it was apparently modern technology and I have a droid two. I never actually said I currently own a blackberry, just that they used to suck, still suck, and will continue to suck despite the fact that you want to yell about it.Quote:

meatball you're really bad at everything
So bad it's terrible.
keep it up meatball and you'll get "the meatball plaesce" pretty soon
just kidding nobody is going to expend that much energy moving your threads
My blackberry glitches and shits all the time when I'm at home... but it works nicely when I'm at school (I'm sure the 3g at the different locationsi has nothing to do with freezes). But the apps on blackberry still suck shit and they're all a joke. Who the fuck pays $80+ for a theme on their blackberry.
the only people who pay 80$ for a blackberry theme are the guys posting in AI right now
My nexus s rules them all.
except that it's on tmobile
