Living in Blackberry

Finally I got the (so called) "it" communication device after trying to resist its invasion for quite sometimes. I just simply do not want to jump into this craze by having one and another thing is I have fell in love with my phone already.

I miss my HTC Touch Diamond, it was my dream device and I spent my own money getting it. My Money!!!

Why did I finally surrender?

First of all my BB (that's what people call Blackberry for short...I was so nerd that I had to ask my sister in law (who has had her finger on this device long before I do) twice what it stands for "BB? What is it? What? oohh...) was a gift for our anniversary / Bday from my husband (I still insist that it is for our anniversary in attempt to get another present heheheh) the second was I had to sell my HTC Diamond because well I do not need two powerful devices right? And the resale value is good I can pay my credit card bill hahahaha.

Okay mine is Curve 8900 a.k.a Javelin, compact and cute. I felt like I had no self opinion at first...felt like I am a follower, I hate to be a follower I always considered my self as an early adopters although not a trendsetter. I felt sooooooo ashamed converting to Blackberry hehehehehe

First day of usage, mmm okay how to use it...quick tutorial from Yufi, but did most of the settings on my own (emails and other stuffs) I did not see any thrills of exploring the device.

Second day of usage, got a grip on using BB messenger and got lots of PIN from friends and family hehehehehe

Third day of usage, I got a grip although not yet mastered the device.

So the device is quite easy to get a grip on and quite useful in terms of what u can do with it especially emails and instant messaging. basically you are constantly in touch with others.

One thing that I am not really thrilled is that it does not have any office application, you can only view and edit but not create and no video call, how I am gonna see Cica if I am out of town??? Too bad aye?

My verdict so far I like this device 85% like I said I am not yet mastered the device. I would like it more if it has a video call and office app.

Do I still feel like a follower, you bet I do!!
But does this device help? So far yes minus the office app other things are super. Compare to my phone..no difference apart from BB is faster in terms of connection to the internet

So are you going to convert? You decide
