Blackberry - Curve Cell Phone — 

Let me just say maybe it's me, but I was expecting a lot more. I recently flew an airline, joined their frequently flyer program. A few months later, I received an offer from them for a free Blackberry. They were offering it threw AT&T, since they were my carrier, it wasn't a big deal. I didn't know much about Blackberry's , except that it seemed like a lot of people had one. So given the fact that it wasn't going to cost me anything I thought what the heck. In a few days I received it in the mail opened it up transfered my SIM card. It transfers all my phone numbers, except it tagged them all as work numbers. Took me about an hour to get them all sorted out. Then the major problem arose. I was trying to connect with my computer using bluetooth. Warning to all Mac users:  It doesn't play well with anything apple related. If that wasn't bad enough when you get your e-mails, it doesn't read any of the picture files, so being a graphic designer, getting my e-mails to my phone is a waste. Just recently I've learned that you can get some free or inexpensive applications, so I downloaded a few of them. Then the problems really began. It can't handle any additional applications. It would constantly get jammed and have to be rebooted. It would also randomly delete things off my call log or emails that clients had sent to me. I then had to delete all applications that I had loaded as well as one that originally came with the phone. I wish I had better news, but being Mac user, I am trading it in for an i-phone.
