Can't we just all get along. Seriously, both of your comments make this forum a better place. Come on back KonTiki!!!!!

i do not like to be rough with people. But this is like the third time he has replied to one of my questions with completely the wrong answer. I wonder why he was the only one who replied the way he did. No one else suggested how to send wallpapers to the phone... because i did not ask that question.

if this was the first time, fine, but this is like the 4th time.

btw... the rogers theme you see on the web is a default theme on the phone. It is not a "rogers" theme.

Maybe a photo comparison (on top of, side by side, etc) with the 7100?

My biggest complaint with all Blackberry's handsdown has been complaints I constantly receive from people I'm speaking with on the phone. They hear background noise, my voice is not clear, etc...Unless Blackberry has made significant improvements here, I'm likely to switch away from Blackberry.

On another note, I attended the 8700 launch party and have not heard from anyone yet. This is disappointing and if Blackberry/Cingular does not hold their promise and deliver a new 8700 - Throwing this launch party and getting people there with the promise of free device will do them more harm than good for sure.

How does the screen perform in outdoor lighting? I have a 7100 and cannot read the screen when any degree of naturual light is on it.

yeah i can't read the screen on my 7100 as well outside.

The 8700c is fully readiable outside. however the auto contrast of the backlight is highly annoying and takes some getting used to.

I am going to take some pics now...

Voice quality is still pretty bad if you use blackberry as phone...Used it for about a day, could not tell you how many times I have full signal and people couldn't hear me. What software version do you have on your 8700 exactly krad, i'd like to compare it to mine even tho I am guessing they are the same, how do you like it overall?

[mortys11]

can u over ride this?

have u tried loading BB Light or 411 to see if it works?

That's to bad I really want the device to work well as a phone. My Treo 650 works great as a phone(latest fw) and is rock solid but hate wearing it on my hip. Guess we will see when and if we get our free one.

i could give a shit about thread counts or post counts. Those posts are different posts at different times. if you think my post count is so high, i won't post anything anymore.
