How do you like it? How quick is your internet access? What kind do you have?

I dont mean the fruit.

    I have the one that was out before the most recent one. It's alright nothing to special. Not really great for internet browsing but really good for e-mailing and texting and things like that. Its only really worth it if you in a line of work that requires you to keep in contact with alot of contacts and save alot of information on them. I also really like the calander feature but i don't know if i'll buy one again. I"ll probaly look at the new I-phone coming out.

    I want one, or something like it, for internet. Not really browsing, but for personal email, pjnews, and baseball scores. Do you think it would be ok for that?

    What kind do you have?

    I have the Moto Q. I like it but I need to upgrade the software. It's Windows based :( but the upgrade should fix some of the problems. It's great for email, contacts, calendar etc. And I have browsed and even posted here from it. I know, I'm pathetic. :)

    How quick is your browsing? Was it easy to post here?

    Supposedly after the software update it will be better. But when I did post it wasn't too bad. It's a slow process but when your stuck somewhere it's a great port in the storm. :)

    It produced a big smile, and the funny thing is, I see myself repeating it.

    iphone comes out in June.

    I just got done borrowing a blackberry from work. I hated it. You're much better off with a Smart Phone/Pocket pc like the treo or the samsung Blackjack.

    Oh, and the Blackberry Pearl is fun. It does text and email better than actually calling and talking I find.

    I have the Samsung Blackjack and I love it. The web pages load pretty quick, and the e-mail system works pretty well. My only complaint is that a couple times a day an old e-mail that I have already read shows up as a new e-mail.

    I have a Verizon Blackberry issued from my work and I can barely leave the house without it now.

    When I went to the Gorge in Sept 05 and last summer for the PJ shows, my cell phone couldn't get any reception out there, but my Blackberry was goin' strong.

    I'm addicted.
