Well I found something the 8130 cant do. It can not survive a fall off the hood of a jeep at 60 miles and hour and 10 cars running over it.

Please lets have a moment of silence for the fallen.

Yeesh. That's going to be expensive to replace. Unless you just *happen* to have someone deposit money in your account

Seriously, Dawg has had a challenging run here lately! I am down to kick in if anyone has a gently used device there are willing to throw down (I would but I don't have one) But I will throw in a donation.

So sorry Dawg! When it rains it pours!

I'd make a donation.

Paypal is out of the question, I guess...
Let me know how/where...

Be cool.

It's hard to believe that the Blackberry God didn't make any backups of his device....

Wow...what a bummer. Sorry, Dawg!

Did you try hooking it up to see if you could get a backup out of it?

yeah i know it was set up to back up every 5 days and last night was the night. I would have tried the back up but I watched it get hit by the power truck and there wasnt anything to hook up. I was able to retrieve the sd card thats about it.

I got a 7250 collecting dust right now that I could give up. If I could score a cheap 8830 or 8330 I'd gladly give away my 8130 to you.
