I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

I just got the Blackberry Curve yesterday and I cannot stop screwing with it. No wonder they are nicknamed crackberry. I am trying to figure out why I did not switch to Blackberry years ago, this thing is awesome!

I have the same one... I've been hooked since my first one 4 years ago! :ss

I got my wife the 8320 for christmas, she hasn't put it down since it arrived

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

It's ridiculous, it really is....:r

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

I was a person who DESPISED texting and everything that came wit 8h it. Once I got my 8830 World Edition I never put the thing down. Now I can't wait until I get home so I can get my Storm.

Got a curve as well some where in the forums there is a list of members pin numbers for BB messaging

Seems kind of complicated for a Jarhead. :D

Have you tried sending a "voice note" using Blackberry messenger....That is cool!

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

I love my Curve. It is very addicting.

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

I got 8830 for Work. I love it. Text, E-mail Whole address Book Linked right to Outlook It's great.

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

Yup the curve is awesome. Best Keyboard I have ever had on a mobile.

I see D is quite the comedian......

no worries no offense taken. By the way when I get back I'll text you or message you on your Crackberry so we can herf sometime. Hopefully you don't shy away from cigars now that you have that.

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

Sounds like a plan to me, bro. :)

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

I don't even think I can get anything but a Black Berry.

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

Trid my sister's blackberry, i didn't like the navigation with the little rolly ball thingy.

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

i've had mine for 6 months, love it

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

went from a Curve to a Pearl to now a BOLD. I LOVE MY BOLD!

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

I have had the pearl since it came out, love the roller. Other than that I hate it with a passion.

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

My next phone will be the Bold or the iPhone. I have the Pearl now...

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

I am an absolute crackberry addict as well. I have 7 different email addresses going to it. I use it for everything, alarm to get me up, reminder to picks things up on the way home from work, calendars, voice notes, maps, you name it. If it just had a lighter on it....

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

I have gotten to the point where I now need a Blackberry and my only dilemma now is whether to go with the Curve or the Storm. I really like the Bold but it is not out yet for Verizon and if I know Verizon they will just dummy it down so you have to pay for everything anyway, like eliminating Wi-Fi on the Storm. I really like everything about the Storm and have played with it a little bit but I do know a few people that have had some issues with it that seem pretty common with Storm users so I am wondering if I should just go with the Curve as it seems to be tried and true or just take the chance with the Storm and hope that software updates come out rapidly to eliminate the current issues plaguing it. I am also contemplating parting ways with Verizon simply because I am tired of them dummying down their phones so you need to pay for everything right down to ringtones like my current phone. I can send ringtones to the phone through the free websites but it does not allow you to use them for ringtones. Verizon has found every way possible to nickle and dime their customers and I am honestly getting tired of it.

I use one for work, really handy but I do not know how to use about 70% of the functions. :hm

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

Just a heads up for any of the techies out there... I use RDM+ (www.rdmplus.com) on my BB to remote in to my work PC. It has come in handy many times! :ss

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

You mean a BB is more than just a phone!?

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

get any blackberry and you can make your own MP3 ring tones. you will never have to pay for them again. also VZW didn't lock down wifi, it was a choice to have it removed completely. the newest software updates for the curve/storm all have everything unlocked so the phones are at full capability. if you want wifi then get an overseas storm and unlock it. there are instructions out there if you want them.

BTW, the storm sucks. get the curve or wait a few months and get the bold.

Re: I know why they call them Crackberrys!
 

They have got to be one of the best and worst inventions of all time!

I have used one for work for about five years now and it is certainly an enabler for most of us.

As an aside, I use mine more than I use my laptop in the office. Buyer beware with the Storm, might be cute for text messaging but if you use it for work e-mail it is a bad option IMHO.

I am on my third Blackberry. I got my Curve last summer. The excitement does fad a little bit!!;)
