David Ayers Posted June 13, 2011 Report Posted June 13, 2011 So. I am using a Blackberry Storm 9500. When I reply to an email, a fresh copy of the email I replied to appears in my inbox - on the handlheld but not on the server. I see one or two people asked about this on Blackberry forums and got ignored (go figure). Anyone else have this problem? I'm gonna get an iphone. Quote

Dave James Posted June 14, 2011 Report Posted June 14, 2011 I have a Blackberry smartphone, but I'm going back to a "dumb" phone when my 2-year contract is up next month. There are some things about the BB I don't care for but, basically, I think it's something I can live without. Lord knows I'm sufficiently tethered to the internet by virtue of my laptop. Quote
GregK Posted June 14, 2011 Report Posted June 14, 2011 android. never going back. it just gets better and better. Quote
Tim McG Posted June 14, 2011 Report Posted June 14, 2011 LG Shine. I keep it just to piss off all the cell phone addicts who have to have the latest gizmo App-thing the minute it comes out on the market. The looks I get are priceless Quote
kinuta Posted June 14, 2011 Report Posted June 14, 2011 I'm the proud non owner of a mobile phone. The ever dwindling number of public phones will eventually compel me to get one but as a matter of principle I'm going to hold out as long as possible. Quote
alocispepraluger102 Posted June 14, 2011 Report Posted June 14, 2011 (edited) my 5+ year old $10 w376g tracfone, which costs me $7 per month, and my everpresent durable 17" screen souped up dell professional laptop(from 2001), combined with my $15 pearl mp3 player, loaded with music the public isn't capable of ever appreciating or understanding and that the apple store has never heard of, and my durable 1991 state of the art minolta freedom zoom 70c film camera, are my defiant relics of everything and anything modern or up to date, and show my contempt for pretty much everything current. my newest car is only 24 years old, of course.

kinuta Posted June 14, 2011 Report Posted June 14, 2011 Wow, and here's me thinking I was the last surviving mobile phone Luddite. I'm gratified fellow cell phone haters. Quote
7/4 Posted June 14, 2011 Report Posted June 14, 2011 Work gave me a Blackberry, but I never bothered to set up email. I'm certainly not going to use my personal email on it, I can look at that when I get home. It would be nice if the camera was better. Quote
Neal Pomea Posted June 14, 2011 Report Posted June 14, 2011 Before I got a cell phone just a few years ago, a co-worker used to try to shame me into getting one. Said even the homeless had cell phones. Well, of course. Where would they put a landline, Sherlock? I hate it when people try to shame you about your rate of technology adoption. Bad taste. Quote
Uncle Skid Posted June 14, 2011 Report Posted June 14, 2011 Former blackberry owner, also switched to android over a year ago. Other than privacy concerns and my general distrust of all things google, it is a nice phone. Battery life is not great, but other than that, it is way better than the blackberry. Quote

Well, of course. Where would they put a landline, Sherlock? I hate it when people try to shame you about your rate of technology adoption. Bad taste. I have a cellphone(wife's insistence) and I avoid charging it or carrying it. I always hear people say that they need it for emergencies, but people had emergencies before cellphones and lived. In NYC,in the two biggest emergencies in the last 20 years(9/11 & the blackout) cellphones did not work! Quote
David Ayers Posted June 15, 2011 Author Report Posted June 15, 2011 Ok so, uh, ditch the Blackberry... Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted June 15, 2011 Report Posted June 15, 2011 A have a blackberry bush that won't bear fruit? Should I get an Apple? Quote
crisp Posted June 15, 2011 Report Posted June 15, 2011 Blackberry? Apple? Either one can crumble. Quote
