Blackberry Bold

Re: Blackberry Bold

ditto - played with it for 1 week.

Perks - screen res is insane. Love many of the features though they really dropped the ball into organizing your phone numbers into groups. You can group, but you can't call from the group, oh well.

Not sure about others with 3G, but mine is pretty dam fast.

Camera is badass; comes with a light for flash.

Trying out the ATT GPS Nav 30 day free trial. Thus far impressed. Nothing like running errands and realizing that you need to stop at a pharmacy or post office -- type in CVS pharmacy and it lists all the CVSs around you -- click driving directions and automatically sets you up.

Drawbacks - the browser kind of sucks and coupled with no updated flash/java support, it really limits you to what you can and can't see on the net.

Very little application memory in comparison with the size of applications.

No timer for how long you can set your phone to lock, or at least i haven't found the option to adjust it.

I'm sure there's more that I have to figure out. Still not a whole lot of apps for Bold. Ameritrade is coming out with their app in about 3-4 weeks.

for the lock there is an autolock application that you can download and you can set the timer on that

Re: Blackberry Bold

so i come into work today and notice that one of my sales reps is carrying a new bold. so i ask, did you buy that? the reply floored me. at&t sent blackberry bolds to my each of my stores for the purpose of getting them in the hands of sales reps. obviously if the reps use them they will sell them, which is good business, but wtf??? how can it be that sales reps that have worked for me less than 6 months can get free bolds but rim nor at&t saw fit to provide the individual that runs these businesses and molds these individuals into being the powerhouse of sales people that they are, with one as well. what a damn cruel joke to play.

either way, i may have to actually pay for my new blackberry goodness this round, but at least my reps will make me some extra money with their new toys.
