Personally I love the blackberry I now have an 8900, with GPS, WIFI, video camera and all the other bells and whistles. The only things it does not do is play videos very well.

The adoption of technology is upto the user and eventually we will come full circle and people will realise why country folk are always smiling, they live life at their pace not someone elses, a valuable lesson to us all.

IGOR: If you are questioning the use of your Blackberry its too much machine for you already, maybe you should go back to your Nokia?

Others prefer a separate device for each function (e.g., mobile phone, camera, PDA, GPS, etc.). My point is that there are markets for both single function and converged devices.

For me, I prefer not carrying around several solo function devices and am willing to accept trade-offs for convenience. My 8800's been a portable godsend.

My lasy phone a Nokia did email, did browsing actually far better than the blackberry amd.the menu applications were more user friendly. So what is the reason to own a blackberry.
