What the hell is a “Blueberry?”

And I agree with Nikolaus–TMo UMA is the best deal in the country, and free calls means my 8320′s Wifi antenna is always on, even in my 5-bars Manhattan apt.!

I really wanted to try 3G out, but if what these posts are indicating are at all true, I’m once again more than willing to spend what little I have on an 8900..

How is it not being a t-mobile exclusive a bad thing? It means it’ll be easier to negotiate discounts with customer retention.

You really think anyone but TMO will pick up the 8900 in USA? ATT has been pushing off all non-3G devices and allocating more and more of their spectrum to 3G in place of EDGE. There would have to be some pretty significant demand for the 8900 (versus the 9000) from large corporate customers before I can see ATT adopting a non-3G device like 8900.

I wonder if this phone has been named as the “iPhone Killer.”

Here’s what I could say
- Blueberry are tough phones while iPhone could be fragile.
- iPhone has a lot of great applications, though Blueberry has its own, it is not as good as the iPhone’s.

Both have its own advantages and disadvantages. It was the right thing to do that he switched.
