Have to agree. I had one when they first came out had 2 replacements and gave back in the end as they all tended to freeze on the Internet.

See I haven't got time for all these updates

I give my phones to my orther half to sort

Just want to keep blackberry but don't want no hassle.

I've had a look round and don't really like orther phones that I've seen

I really want one

Most of my clients have Bbm so it easiest all round.

Plus there a good design which I like

Don't have any problems with my curve 9300

I use my BB for work, emails mainly, but internet is crap (just web pages, nevermind streaming)

Have got my old 8900 as personal phone, entirely up to you but comes to something when the sales rep puts you off em

If you go to Orange ask for Jai or Alicia they'll sort you out

Have you looked into the 9990 the one abover the torch, more reliable but start at £549 on contract

Deffo mate

It's a bold 9990 looks like a normal handset, not flashy looking like the torch with the slide etc but it's the shiznit
