I’m going to need a blackberry. It’s going to be on Verizon. Do you like the 7130 verizon or the 8703? I’ve asked my coworkers, and they say after a little while, you can actualy type FASTER on the 7130 vs the 8703. Which would you rather? Full qwerty of 8703? or “sleekness” of 7130? ---

[quote=“zwarbyt,post:2,topic:25007"”] I’D RATHER HAVE WM6 :BLOATED: [/quote] fixed but personally I like full qwerty more than shared keys you can have it run 15 min intervals, not sure if you need to have it check more than that, but 15 min works fine for me ---

They’re coming out with this great new thing that’s sure to replace emails. The benefits are instantaneous transmission and response, and it’s all voice activated so no time lost to typing. I think they’re going to call it “phone calling.” It just seems that if you need to deal with 200+ emails a day instantly, a handheld isn’t up to the task. How about a laptop with a cell card? But maybe I’m not a big enough tech geek. :gotme: ---
