Here's a review of the Backflip.

Are you with cingular/AT&T? Have you ever thought about getting a Nexus One(it has 3g now)? I'm seriously contemplating getting one.

Ya I am with att. It looks pretty coll pricey but cool. Any idea what data plan you would neet for it? Cause it says just insert your sim card but to have the intenet and stuff you would need a data plan. With the backflip its the android data plan and the black berry is the black berry data plan both $30 a month extra.

I'm with AT&T too and am ready for an upgrade. I'm thinking of switching to a windows phone. Any thoughts on this one?

I got the backflip two days ago and so far I am not ahuge fan of it. It has cool stuff but is confusing on how to use it. I dont really like the keyboad I prefer bb keyboards. Does anyone on here have the bold 9700? I have 30 days to take it back and get a different one

I have had the bold 9700 for about five months now. So far it seems to be a really good phone one of the best blackberrys in my opinion, the little optical thing you use to navigate works 100x better than the crappy scroll ball they used to have. Its pretty rugged to I am extremely rough on phones and this one has made it this far with only a little scratch on the chrome trim (and that was from my lab puppy getting ahold of it).

I am pretty loyal to Blackberry. I've tried a ton of different phones and it's been the best for me so far. I have a Curve.. haven't really heard much about the Bold. I'm interested to hear how others like it though, as I'm due for an upgrade shortly as well.

Do you have any music downloaded on to your bold?

thiney 04-27-2010 2:44 PM

I dont have any music on mine I just use it for internet, email, texting, and a few other random apps.

Do you use pandora?

thiney 04-28-2010 7:07 AM

I have it but I dont use it often not a fan of pandora it seems to work ok tho when I do use it.
