Anyone using BlackBerry Curve 3G 9300?
 

Well I am planning to buy that phone today as in today. Anyone using it?

I don't.

I guess you'll be using one, from today. As in today.

Yep .... my fourth BB, and my favorite one too!!

I've had BB since they were a pager that sent/received emails.

Why is it better than say an Iphone?
Apart from secure email?

And whats the check stocks facilities like?
Or browsing web?

1) Email as well as http security encryption - reason enough to use a BB!

2) Far better http compression algorithm than iPhone (does iPhone even compress data - I don't think they do???) saves data usage where iToy chews up data like it has a limited time to do so ...

3) A positive action keyboard - enough said :1orglaugh
(touch typing on glass is highly over-rated IMHO ... I can double-thumb 65 wpm with a BB ... iPhone I think my personal best was 35 (not even counting mistakes ..))

The rest is personal preference ... I love BMW, and am not really a Mercedes guy ...
I have used a BB since they were little monochrome pagers that sent/received emails, and I have factored my BB into my business model. I don't fix what is not broken... I am sure I will still use a BB in 5 years ... 10 years ....

I use BOLT web browser, and I have no issues with browsing the web.

New HTC EVO is quite mid evil.

HTC thunderbolt beats it. I have both.

Best user interface ever. Amazing phones.

I absolutely fucking hate those SMUG "If you havent got an iphone..... well, you have got an iphone." FUCK YOU Adverts. :1orglaugh

But isnt mostly HTC just a poor mans iphone?

Sure im more of a BMW guy too but what else can you do with blackberry? Is the stock price checking facilities good? What about word processing?
