Anyone have a blackberry!?!??!!?!??! HELPPPPPP!!?

Question

Please, if anyone actually HAS this phone, can you please answer some questions. I'm really thinking about getting one, but i need to know some info from an actual 8130 OWNER. Okay so first, is the internet browser, my most important question. Does it display the pages all....chopped up and crappy? Or is it full layout and nice. Please rate the internet browser from 1-10. Also, to be more specific, how about MYSPACE? And more importantly, can you watch YOUTUBE videos from either the mobile site or the normal site? Okay, now texting..is it easy to get used to after a while? And how do you like the phone overall? Oh, and games and ringtones...how do you get those on there, since this phone does not have GET IT NOW? I heard something about a ...desktop wizard icon or something like that..is all that process hard? And the software itself. Is it confusing? Like to get around your phone? And also, pictures. Hows camera picture quality? Video? And lastly, is it durable? Like for example, some phones are so delicate, if you drop them once, they crack or scratch super easily. How bout the 8130...Sturdy? As you can tell, I am asking for specific information and im sorry, but i just have to know before i decide to get the phone. Also, you can add personal things about what you like/dont like about the phone yourself..

Whoever takes their time to answer this, I thank you! Thanx for your time, and for helping me!! =)

Answer 1

The web browser is ok, there are a few different applications that make it easier to view the web, such as a program called "Opera Mini".  I would give the web browser a 6.  You can view, check messages, respond to messages, etc on myspace.  Myspace also has a mobile version now which makes viewing it on a blackberry much easier.  Texting, took me about 4 days to get use to the suretype keypad, but now I can fly through texts and emails quicker than I could with a full keyboard.  The phone overall, I give it a 10 (by far my favorite that I have used). There is no "get it now", but the software that comes with the blackberry allows you to create your own ringtones at no cost.  There are websites that you can purchase games from and there are also websites that will allow you to download games for free.

Camera is a 2 megapixel camera, so it's decent.  The phone is pretty durable, I use a silicone skin and a screen protector and I drop it all the time.

The only advice I would give, is to purchase a memory card.  The 8130 doesn't have a ton of memory and if you are looking to take pictures with it, get them stored on the memory card instead of the phones memory.  If it is stored on the phone, it will eventually start to erase your car log and text messaged due to lack of space.
