I am just looking for a very basic, stripped down blackberry to use only for emailing. Can anyone recommend a model or plan? How cheap can I do this for?

Thanks!

  1. Blackberry wouldn't be cheap regardless if you got the phone for cheap. With blackberry you have to use there server to use email...which strats at 39.99...Just depends on what cell service you have. Most have other great PDA phones that you do not have to pay for blackberry service. I have worked in the cell industry for a long time and HATE blackberry...I prefer Palm Treo or something with Window's mobile. My husband has a Palm Treo 680 which has Palm OS email and he connects to his outlook. I have a windows device which I can do the same thing. Blackberrys are costly...but it just depends on what you prefer....EBAY has them for pretty cheap or craigslist.com


  2. Good luck hunting. The BB is designed for business types. It is neither cheat nor stripped down.

    Hope that helps

  3. I would recommend getting a BlackBerry 8700g device from T-Mobile. If you go with T-Mobile you can get a data plan for $30 a month that will allow for unlimited data and e-mail. You may even be able to find a refurbished 8700g device for cheaper than what T-Mobile is selling theirs for ($99 after rebate and 2 year agreement).
