    Do they give you the option of anything other than a blackberry? I had one for a few years and hated it.

    Blackberry is a dying brand right now that is just falling further and further behind when it comes to cell phone technology

    I love my BB Tour of the choices above I would go with the Curve 9360 because of the keypad. Just a personal preference though.

    i have the curve 9360.
    Do you travel outside the counrty at all? I think the bold can be used over seas and comes with the charger for over seas
    If people can't tell your on steroids then your doing them wrong

    I just realize I already got Curve 9360. and all the BB comes with the international charger so far I have 5 of them and they all have it. I am leaning towards either torch 9860 or curve 9380. I know touch keypad will drive me crazy for a bit but you get use to it also Iphone4 has a touch screen too.

    i have the torch 9860: very happy with it. outperforms most other blackberrys. doesn't stack up against many of the new android phones, and probably is inferior to iphone aswell, but i'm in the same position as you, need it for work.

    if you are not used to a touch screen keyboard, you may not like this phone. a good alternative would be the new bold 99something. it has a proper keyboard PLUS a touchscreen to help replace some functions of the trackpad.

    Company is paying so need your guys opinion on this.
    Go with the bold 9900, its touch screen and qwerty keyed without the Torch slide option. I have the torch and 9*** and find myself using the touch screen function rarely. so my next BB will be the 9900. PM me your BBM code when you get it.


    Ok so after posting this I realized you posted the 9 7 8 0 lol, try for the 9900

    Go with the Bold like everyone else says, it's what i've got.

    Only small gripe I got, if you use it to surf the net, it will eat up a lot of battery power.
