New Phone Review


Alright here's the deal.
While out getting a pedi, and shopping the Saturday before Easter. Number 9 and I ran into a HOT tender thang running the Verizon Kiosk at the Mall. Cutting to the chase, this ho left with two new Blackberry Storms.
My old Blackberry works fine, but I am such a sucker for new technology, and a killer smile. Do I know how to use half of it? NO.
This phone tries really hard to be the IPhone.
The good?
The camera is one of the best I've ever used on a phone. 3.2 mega pix makes for excellent pix taking. The browser is similar to the IPhone, with the ability to finger through websites with ease. So far I am extremely pleased with it, plus the broadband access seems to run smoother than the previous unit I used. The screen is great for browsing my favorite sites for Hotties.
The bad?
The touch keyboard is hard for me to get use to. It does operate alittle different than a touch screen, you actually have to press down till the screen clicks, which is easier than the touch pads I've used on other phones.
Not alot of apps to chose from.
Other than the app part, I'm very pleased.
The hotness that sold us the phone was a real player. He smiled, winked and flirted through the whole process. To bad he was dumb as a bag of rocks. That's just the way I like them. Dumb and Hot.
The price? I was eligible for a two year upgrade on two of the four lines under contract. With the new 2 yr contract, the price was $180 out the door for both phones, which I felt was a steal. Now if you buy a blackberry, Verizon requires you to purchase a data plan which begins at $30 for each phone activated.
There you have it.
I'll keep you posted of any problems, and plenty of crisp clear photo's.

the photo does look really clear, and walking out-the-door with ONE for $180 is a fraking steal... i have heard that the blackberry brand is slow to get on the apps bandwagon, but on the bright side, according to gizmodo, blackberry will have a skype app come june! free calls @ home and internationally would be heaven for a trucker. i am still rocking ~ and standing firmly behind ~ my rusty-dusty sidekick 3. she may not be much now, but she has treated me right. ^_^

It's time for my 2-year upgrade. I have Verizon, so we can talk without using minutes! Does texting count in that, too?

I haven't decided what phone to get next, so I'm glad to read your review.

I've learned a lot in the last few years. One thing is my ability to keep moving forward regardless of what's happening around me.  My sister is terminal, a lifer.   She's now 46 and her youngest just turned 10.  6 years ago it was breast cancer and  lymph nodes. We had hoped it was all behind us but this was a hope we only wished for.  MD Anderson said two years.  I remain calm and steady, on the outside.  Inside I'm a flying superman with a wicked cape that doesn't keep me at a level altitude. I die with every bit of turbulence.  I will never breath a word of this to anyone, my mad ride in my head.  My Facebook post are generic.  This will now be my place to let it go. All of it.  Bill will never understand my thoughts on any of this. He's never even lost a parent. He still lives in the innocent world that everybody lives forever.  Sure people have survived this. Bob lost his sister and I read every post of his. It broke my h...

HOWDY!!

Is anybody out there???? Everyone has left the blogs for facebook, including me. Well I'm back for at least this post. I'm no longer driving a truck. Bill and I live in Monte Vista, a historic district within the city limits of San Antonio, Texas. Number 9 has moved to the Houston Area along with all her kids in tow. Texas was where we grew up and it appears we left for all the right reasons. Getting back to the neanderthal ways of life are a huge adjustment but trust me, I'm having a much easier time than #9. She has been bombarded by southern Baptist at every turn and it has been a trying time for her to readjust. Back in June I was hurt on the job in Ohio and required a 10 day hospital stay followed by several months of therapy. I'm just now almost back at where I began and hopefully by the middle of the new year, I'll be good as new again. Why the move??several. But the most important one?  well #9 went for her three month check up in Las Vegas back in ...

Oh gawd, What a week already. I did some things around the house but sleeping has become the norm, when I'm not eating. So. On the 26th, it will be one year since #9 shot across the sky in rocking light of fire. It was Friday, just about noon on that day when I whispered in her ear and ask if this was it. She said three words. I love you. Gone like that. On Friday that week she was in Phoenix at the Cancer Center of America. Walking, Talking and doing her thing. Although the news was shitty as hell and they said she would be needing to check in to hospice centers back in Texas, she walked to the airplane, flew back to Texas and walked to her car at the airport. She was a tough old broad as Mom would say. She called me on her journey home to tell me the news and what they had advised her to do. It was a tough talk but we had it. I drove over to see her for the weekend and knew when I left Sunday I would be back on Wednesday, which i did. When I got there Tuesday she was in...
