Wink Should I wait for BB 9000/BB9300/BB9320/BB9330......?

Please Login to Remove!

Hi All BlackBerry/CrackBerry Users,

Please let me know if I should wait for the BB 9000 series to be launched. With so many new BB models coming out, what should I do??!!

I know, I might as well keep on using my reliable BB 7130e which has not had problems of any kind since I got it in Dec., 2005.

Like alot of you, I want to have the latest and greatest. But don't know which one to choose.

Please help me!!

CarBob

Considering none of those will likely be out this calendar year, and likely won't be out all at one time (like how long has it taken for the 8820 to reach the market after the 8800 made it?) you probably won't have real choices in the 9000 series until a year from now. Can you out wait RIM?

I'm waiting for the BB 12020. It's said to do the dishes and work as a remote for my TV.

the 22020 series can make you coffee and bathe you too.
the 32020 series will allow for direct connection to your brain for the ultimate Matrix experience.

No, give me more lies and fantasies.

If wanted the truth, I would have done a search.

Bob, if you've just got device lust, buy the one you think is sexiest now.

Otherwise the question to ask yourself is what features do you want/need? A list of slick features
  • Broadband Internet (EV-DO)
  • Midband Internet (EDGE)
  • GPS
  • Track Ball
  • Media: music, videos
  • Memory Card Slot
  • Camera
  • Full or SureType keyboard
  • WiFi (coming soon to a carrier far from you)

The latest models have various combinations of these.

Personally the killer feature for me is Broadband though I may settle for EDGE with WiFi. I don't trust any other carriers, so I'm stuck waiting out T-Mobile.

I just like how T-Mobile has the cheapest data plan.

In the year 2525 will man still be alive?
Will my Blackberry 7290 still survive?
Or Will I have one implanted in my mind?

I look at BB's like a PC, as soon as you buy it its obsolete. I say take the plunge use the bejesus out of it when it falters upgrade. Wash, rinse and repeat.

Thanks to those who replied to my post. I have to confess that I was all 'BlackBerryed' (sic) out, so to speak, when I wrote it.

I'll probably upgrade to a CDMA 8300 , if and when, it becomes available in Canada. LOL
