sweet phone
had one for over 6 months, eventually broke (my mistake)
had to switch to an unlocked iPhone 4 (hand me down)
Love to get the 9900 back with the Wi-Fi calling and BB features which i do miss a lot (like Social Hub & BBM)

I deserve to win because I’m one of RIM’s biggest fans. I have also been a huge advocate since I’m the only one on my job who uses a blackberry device!

I would love to win one of these. My Bold 9700 is on its last legs, and I really need a replacement that will have the best email delivery system AND Wi-Fi calling for when I travel for business. Of course, I can’t buy one for myself, since I am spending all of my money on Christmas presents for my wife! Please pick me! Thanks!

I just dropped my BB this afternoon and chipped part of it, the letters are also worn off from all the texting and bbm’s. A replacement would really be nice.
@ inc188 how could you?

Ah Damn, I posted the entry in the wrong section, I thought I was posting for a BB9900 turns out I entered in Playbook! Well, count this as my official entry:
Well, I have been using BB 9700 for about 3,5 yrs. I have been out of contract for over 1,5 yrs and even though I was tempted to jump ship over to Android, I resisted, and I resisted real hard.. One day I gave in to the temptation and bought Galaxy Nexus, that phone was nice and fancy, after few days I realized how empty the phone was, surely you could fill it with stuff but e-mails were not working well, doing business using exchange service was nearly impossible and the keyboard could not keep up with my typing for god’s sake.. I open, reply and send e-mails faster than the time it took nexus to spit out my typing.
Anyway, finally I returned it and went back to my 9700.
I wanted to 9900 but it was never on sale, either I had to pay $600 out of contract or pay $200 and sign a 2 year contract which meant that I could not be eligible to upgrade when BB10 is released.
So here I am, hoping that I can win a 9900 (I already have a playbook, but 2nd one wouldn’t hurt) so I can use it and get used to the awesomeness that is BB7 + TouchScreen.

Hi! I think I should win this because I entered the “insideblackberry”contest for my aunt and didn’t win!
! We live on the east coast and she was hit by hurricane Sandy. Sadly for her, water got into her house and got into her playbook as well. Also, her phone has been acting up. So, all is wrong right now. To keep her spirits high this holiday season, I want to be able to give her the 9900! It would be the perfect gift for her! She’s also on the T-mobile network, which is even more perfect! Hopefully, my entry wins!

I deserve to win this so I can give it to my wife. She is a bit of a Luddite and won’t let me buy her a smartphone (i.e Blackberry) but if I won one she would have to take it. Then I could get some friends off my back who think that the reason she doesn’t have a smartphone is my Scottish nature.

It’s about time to retire my poor, beat-up, bluetooth-sometimes-working, camera-no-longer-working, Bold 9700. I’m amazed it has lasted as long as it has, almost expecting it to tell me it quits and won’t accept BBMs anymore. @apodidae

I would like to win both to see less of my little friend (the spinning clock) and to update to a VGA screen (I won`t even lament that it`s not phosphor green monochrome or that weird orange some CRT`s used back in the day). Also, as the sort of person who says things like “back in the day”, having the current Bold on my hip will add credibility…at least until I say something like, “totally rad, dude.”

I need a new Bold 9900 because I hate it when people try to use my 9700 and try touching the screen. I have to tell them time and time again there is no touchscreen! A new Bold 9900 would save me from the stress this causes! My Girlfriend is the worst offender. I’m BB4Life and I convinced her to upgrade her 8520 to a 9900 this past summer. Now, when she has to use my phone, she always tries touching the screen and yells at me like its my fault! Save a man in trouble here BerryReview and Blackberry! No one deserves a pissed off GF!
