Don't matter.. same shit.. I would say ATT, only because you can send and receive messages while talking on the phone. I believe web surfing is also available while a call is in progress.

I'm using my old BB for a little bit to try and figure how much of my disdain was for the Iphone and how much was for ATT. But the data plans are different, so I currently don't get data for the BB...gotta make a move soon

I would like to try out Verizon but not sure if it's worth it...company is on ATT so I would be the only phone on Verizon. But yes, I don't care about surfing on a call as much as sending/receiving messages/emails. Does Verizon put emails through or just texts?

VZW doesnt allow BB to not have a data package, and I didnt think ATT did either.

Yes, technically I do have data, but it's for an Iphone. The data plan for Iphone is different than the one for BB...so just putting my sim into the BB means it's trying to use Iphone data...which it can't do

Meh...I'm on a 3yr old curve with no data and much prefer it to my Iphone. Granted I primarily use the phone for communication, not web browsing, use like 2 or 3 apps regularly (banking, WSJ, and MLB)...gave it a year and half but Iphone just not for me. And it was as unreliable as can be. Currently my alarm doesn't work. The alarm screen pops up, but no ringer. And I checked, it's not user error

I would be hesitant to go to the Iphone at VZW too, its going to take time to get their service to use all of the Iphone capabilities. VZW spent all of their money putting towers up and buying other companies, in a few years VZW will be untouchable. BB's run flawless on them, and look into Droid too. BB will not be touched as far as business emailing and being user friendly. Sounds like BB is the phone for you

Any phone will eventually piss you off.

The BB software is much better suited to how I use my phone. And TBH I'm over the whole touch screen thing. Messed around on some androids too but feel much more at home with the BB
