whats your spec for the perfect BB

i'd go for:

loads more software, especially multimedia
full bluetooth operation
time adjustable profiles
removable memory, faster net browsing.
Blackberry messenger with video.(no camera at the back though)

I would ask for durability, maybe even up to military standards and that includes keeping dust out. Get rid of the painted case and go back to a hard screen like the 75xx series. Give me a 8700 in a 75XX case and I would be very happy!

durability

I second that, oh give me some WiFi too!

[roofus]

For NJBlackberry. . . . I'll start the decay!
a bottle opener, corkscrew, and cigarette lighter (I don't smoke, but just in case) . . . oh and don't forget the Swiss Army sreen saver!

and a compass! no GPS for me!

[BilltheCat]

durability. milspec, stronger BT, oh, and tech support that knows more than I do.

This is the biggest drawback. While I'm in the whiteout zone, I would love to be able to connect via WiFi to my wireless router at home with my blackberry.

My Palm T/X does this fine, I just wish the 7250 had WiFi. Expandable memory would be great too. Is there anyone out there doing any hardware hacking on the 7250? It was cheap from AllTel so I'm stuck with a 2 yr. contract on this outdated blackberry...

Another no-feature is the roaming indicator on the 7250. When I'm in the extended network (not roaming) the triagle should flash like other cells. It doesn't, it stays a solid triangle even though I'm not actually roaming. The only way I can tell if I'm really roaming is ask my wife to check her status on the slider phone.

take that chill pill.

if shes not talking to you- dont worry she will get over it
death in the family? time will heal that eventually.
debt got you down? sell the bb and pc.

im sure we all can go round to most new post with comments about it already being posted in the past. if you didnt have anything to contribute you couldve just kept it to yourself.

[BilltheCat]

you didn't really disturb the thread brother. You just didn't contribute anything worth your effort in posting. Humor is a difficult concept; knowing when to interject levity and when not to. No harm no foul.

Press on!

[NJBlackBerry]

Wow... Getting slammed on this thread.
I am deleting all my threads in here since it appears I am offending people.
Lord knows I try and help people out. But if they don't like my postings, I certainly won't be on the look out to help them (or comment in their threads) again.

Good luck with the perfect BlackBerry.

[g1no]

helping me out wouldve meant you replying with a link to that "post in the past" you mention.

thanks for a very entertaining day.

Please, have a great day.

well done.

I don't know NJB, I don't mind your post. I prefer them over a guy who joined the family in May dictating what a forum mod should put in his post. We were ok before May???

How serious can a dream thread be? It's not like RIM will read the wish list then put the engineers right on it. So in that light, the entire thread is fiction... Too bad Dawg's not around anymore, I'm sure he would have words for this guy...

[k9Berry1]

I foward some of your information from the threads to a buddy of mine at RIM. He passes them on to the powers.....

As for the perfect BB... Hum i like what i have.. Hate the painted bodies, the stupid nylon pouch... What my clients want is different... Faster browser, Camera, MP3 player, include the ability to modify office docs. (yes i know there are third party apps)

Love my 7100i

[Soapm]

In that case put me down for MP3 player and GPS of sort.

[mymitsu3kgt]

Greater bluetooth functionality, expandable memory slot, wifi.

[Heavy I/O]

Strong Wifi with a hard on/off switch

Sync app like Palm

Office like Pocket PC

Able to handle Certs better (DoD) CAC is a pain.

Stronger case

MP3 Player

Louder earpiece

Reception that rivals a satilite in orbit

Memory slot (at least 512)

Camera (2megapixel)

tethering the right way with 1mb bandwidth up/down

large capacitor so you could switch batteries without turning it off or having it go down. ( I have two batteries and sometimes I have to change in the middle of the day).


That's about it... LOL
