I've currently got a basic cell phone, it rings and I answer.

Lately I've been getting smoked with my schedule and am considering upgrading. Here's what I am looking for: something that syncs with my outlook calendar dynamically, small so i can put it in my pocket while riding or running, easy qwerty so I can text and update calendar and contacts, excellent reception qualities and a battery life that actually allows it to be used. Something that prevents the ever inconvenient 'butt dialling' is also a bonus as is a built in Palio.

I don't care if it has a camera, mp3 player, ginsu knives, cheese shredder, or internet browsing.

I know Zach hates his crackberry pearl, what's someone elses opinion on them?

Check out the Blackjack II (http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-phone-service/cell-phone-details/?device=BlackJack(TM)+II+by+Samsung&q_sku=sku1140027). I just got one a few months ago and love it.

Well I have a crackberry pearl, and I love the dang thing...smaller and more convenient than the full size crackberry, and still has all the functionality...but I chose not to get the pink one like Zack...I just don't roll that way :mrgreen:

The pink color is the only good thing about a pearl... Seriously the design of this phone blows... maybe I am too critical of phones but they failed on this one...

If an iphone wasn't $80+ a month to get a plan for I would have moved over to att already... but I hate att and I don't want to spend $100 a month on a damn phone plan... screw apple and att for being gay. I can't wait till they pass a law making it illegal to have exclusive phones.

Well like it or hate it, I'll find out. I'm now the owner of the CC. (Crackberry Curve in this case) I can PW on the go!!! Initial playing went well, did everything I wanted, including keeping seperate inboxes for my accounts, Wednesday I'll go hook it into the BES server at work. Now about the little a$$ raping I took with the 'oh, you want to use your company's server? $14 on top of the internet fee. Combine that with moving my plan to a family share plan to get my daughter up and running, I think Verizon needs to buy me dinner. Does my brother who works for them offer to help? Nope. He's so getting coal for Christmas.

Net cost of the CC and Chocolate? $50 for both. So I got that going for me.
