cell phones ...and a lil vent..
I know we've talked about this 100 times already, but what kind of phone do you have? Do you like it? Does it work well?
I'm about to throw my blackberry out of a moving car!!! I have to pull the battery out and reboot it several times a day. It takes forever to come back on. It's always freezing.
Because of work I need my phone to work all the time. Ever since I've been using my phone so often b/c of work it has been working less and less. I've had it!
I have verizon. They just started selling the iphone, but I don't have an upgrade until May 2012, so i will not be paying $600 for a iphone. I've turned to ebay. I'm trying to be very careful and reading everything about each listed phone.
Does anyone here have a droid or a palm pixi? if not, what do you have? I need it to do e-mail for sure.
TIA.
Re: cell phones ...and a lil vent..
I have a Droid phone. It's the Samsung Intercept (I have Sprint). I was pretty annoyed with it for awhile, but there was a software upgrade a month or so ago, and I haven't had a problem with it since.
I really like it. I'll admit that I haven't played with an iPhone in a long time (probably not since the first one came out), but I don't really see how an iPhone is really any better than what I have. Most apps now are made in iPhone and Droid versions. I have internet access, FB access, email access, navigation, you name it.
DH has the HTC EVO 4G. His phone is definitely better than mine, but only because A) he's on 4G and I'm on 3G (so his phone is faster), and
his screen is bigger than mine. But I prefer a smaller phone, and I like the fact that I have a slide-out keyboard for mine (although admittedly, I almost never use the keyboard).

I have an old school freebie phone from about 4 years ago.
but my friend from work had droid through verizon until the iphone came out through them. He couldn't wait for the iphone to come out b/c he absolutely hated his Droid. He said there were all sorts of issues with it.
my cousin who had droid through verizon also upgraded to the iphone when it came out b/c she hated hers too.
I have an iphone and LOVE IT! I just got DH one for his birthday. I know AT&T sells refurbished ones. Mine was a refurb one, so maybe Verizon will do the same thing. It was only $99 bucks when I got a reburb one and I just paid $49 for DH's reburb one.
I have a friend that has a droid and she said that she has all kinds of issues with hers as well.

My sis and BIL both have Droids and love them. I've used my sister's and honestly I'm not crazy about it. It does have some good features, but I just prefer the programming/layout of Mac products.
Ditto this, mine's a samsung. I dont get internet or anything fancy. Sorry Im no help.
But, my brother and sister both have iphones and they love them.
