Total Cost is still $400… Not worth it for me. 1.)TMO, and Cingular do 1 year contracts, without “higher priced products” unlike Sprint and Verizon 2.) Verizon’s termination fee is $175, which can be paid over a course of 9 months, with minimum payments of $10/months 3.) remember this quote I made directed to you > [@Blue](#): > > So I’d assume the Verizon variant, can’t be to much more I was not trying to sell you on a carrier, my company carries, I was making a friendly suggestion to you, on a superior product, that is known throughout various carriers to have a lower price, for a much HIGHER value. 7100 \> all previously made blackberry’s [http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/compare.php?id[]=673&id[]=609&id[]=521&id[]=&id[]=](http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/compare.php?id%5B%5D=673&id%5B%5D=609&id%5B%5D=521&id%5B%5D=&id%5B%5D=) ---

those do look neat, but I cant really justify getting one as of yet. Maybe if I actually need one for work my boss will hook me up with one. That or something that can hook into a wireless network because we are thinking of making the entire hotel a wireless hotspot, which would be pimp because I could just chill back in my office with a laptop. 🆒 ---

Yeah, I didn’t really see a need for one while I was in school, but with my change in work responsibilities and the such, I think it’s justified to have it and that it will really help make my work easier. Plus its too big to have just for the hell of it and not to use it to its potential, lol [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/anyone-have-a-blackberry/172994.md?page=2)
