pros

everything on the phone


cons

no picture messages and the touch screen keyboard (for texting and internet use) takes awhile to get used to, but once you have a feeling for it, you should be fine.

It's cool, but the cost to have unlimited data (texting, email, etc) sucks.

I don't have experience with it, but I think it's rather useless..

I have a phone to call and text message with, and a PC for picture editing, text processing, etc. And an MP3 player for music. I have no need to have everything together in one freakishly expensive thing.

and if I did, I'd go with the Nokia Nseries

I may look into one later on the road, but it just does not appeal to me very much, and the price draws others away as well.

Good Point. There's no point in buying something like that when you already have a MP3 player, Laptop and/or Cellular phone. It's just a rich kids toy. (No offense to anyone who's rich. Razz )

My mom got a free Blackberry and gave it to the kids as a child's play thing because "She didn't like it." I swear she can be a real waste sometimes...

In my opinion, they're cool and stuff, but a waste of money. Get an iPod.
