Why I want Blackberry Bold Onyx 9700?
I was a pioneer in using blackberry at my office. My fellows were using different type of cellphones and smartphones. There were ipaq, 02, Nokia, SonyEricsson, Palm and HTC products on my office work tables.
I decided to change to blackberry because I need to always connected with emails. Of course, there are many smartphones with email capabilities. But, I need push email. I think Blackberry gave me solution to my need.
After replacing old cellphone with Balckberry, my friends asked me what Blackberry offered that other smartphone did not. I explained push email, push browser, Blackberry Messenger, YM, feed reader and other applications that run over Blackberry APN, not GPRS APN. Applications that run over Blackberry APN were not charged additional data communication tariffs by operator. All data communication were packaged in our BIS subscription. You want to chat, browse internet, or read rss feed 24×7 did not matters. Your BIS invoice would be the same. It was not applied with GPRS or 3G that sometimes did not give flat subscription tariffs.
Do you know what happened then? There are many blackberries now in my office!
