hey all i was wondering if i could get all of your opinions...
iam torn between which bb to get and i need your input to help me chose
i know this might be a stupid thread but any help would be appreciated...
i have both nextel and cingular accounts and need a blackberry for the following: internet, email, and text messaging.
with that said here the pros and cons for each carrier and phone.
cingular 8700c:
pros: full keyboard, better coverage - but call clarity isnt as good, bigger screen, great battery life, freedom to go to any state and have service.
cons: dust issue under screen, no gps in phone for telenav, and no program for voicecontrol.
NEXTEL 7100i:
pros: phone gets great service for nextel better than any other nextel phone in my opinion, size of it for phone functions, gps and telenav, program available for voice activated dialing (VoiceControl), direct connect feature for easy communication
cons: small keyboard, not as good service - but call calrity is better, worried about getting service when i visit california(san diego area) and florida(orlando area), direct connect feature is also a con because if iam on a dc call i will loose an incoming phone call and caller will get my voicemail.
p.s. the nextel blackberry 7520 is not an option the screen hurts my eyes.
thank you very much for reading this mess, but any help is apprecaited...thanks again.
