AUGH!! what is it with people???

on this other board that i used to go to (i lurk sometimes), someone started a thread asking about iphone vs blackberry, wanting to know pros and cons for them. working for verizon wireless (i never mentioned in the post that i do), i know that stuff, so i posted my thoughts and facts about both. i gave some cons about the iphone and even went as far as to tell the person that the blackberry pearl is crap

and then i get reamed for "drinking the verizon koolaid" and being an iphone hater! i am so angry right now. i dont know why it got to me so much but its like, the person ASKED for what people know, i TOLD him, and i get chewed out for having an opinion! what the F***!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i really freaking HATE PEOPLE!! *screams* i wish i could just block that site from my computer but i dont know how.

alright sorry for ranting. i had to let it out...  :-\

The Blackberry Pearl IS crap. Sorry to anyone who has it and likes it; I need a full keyboard.
Verizon isn't the only one with Blackberry Pearls.. wtf.

Ok, now that I fed your anger, lets both let this go. I really want the Blackberry touch-screen one (but it's not available for T-Mo yet and it's new, which is not good to me) OR Blackberry Curve Titanium.  Yeeeeah

the pearl right now is pretty much priced to get rid of it. sooo many people end up getting it replaced like 5 times before just going to a diff phone..

and i kinda hate to say this, but RIM has a deal with verizon (and its sister companies in other countries like telus) that if we sell a certain number, we'll have the rights to the phone forever. i'm pretty sure we met that goal, though i can't say for certain, since the phone's been out almost a month and is still backordered. the best bet would be to find a Bberry Storm that's unlocked since it does come with a GSM sim card, so i'm sure people will figure out how to make it work on t-mobile.

Besides the stupid pearl, BB sells (thru t-mo):
8820
Curve- sunset, titanium
8700g

Then like, pearl flip and other pearl versions. I'm sure Verison has more and is used for most business ones.

Don't let virtual people get under your skin Sariea!  It's their loss for not taking your advice.  Shrug it off and smile!

Hey sariea, what do you think about t-mo's G1?

unfortunately i don't know anything about it and haven't heard really anything about it since it was launched, which kinda makes me think it's not too great a phone. i've heard there are problems with it, but not specific information, so i can't really say. Verizon doesn't really have more blackberries, we have very low stock of the older ones, like u can only get them thru replacing the one u already have, then we just have the pearl, curve, and the storm. i think i saw on phonearena.com that we're gonna be getting another one soon but i don't know the name of it.

if i was on tmobile i would totally get the sunset curve. i have a regular white/black curve and i love it. i've dropped it many times w/o having a cover on it and it's still working fine, probably because the edge is kinda rubberized. i wanted the pink curve but it was brand new when i got mine and i wasn't gonna pay an extra $100 for it (i got mine off ebay b/c ordering thru the vzw employee accounts took FOREVER. my friend bought hers at the same time and didn't get it for a month. plus i wasn't eligible to upgrade hah).

thanks for all the replies, u guys. i'm trying to just forget about it and only go to the website to see if the admin got my PM to delete my account. i wish i could block that site though.

i went to that link but didn't see him. pretty sure he's not a "flamer", just a jackass ;)

Thanks Sariea, that's what I thought! You are very helpful. That guy is a total douchebag. You should write him a letter in the open letters thread. it's cathartic.  :)

Have a better day today!

Hey, Sariea: FTR, I notice that cabin fever is rampant on the Web. Several comment-boards are full of angst, anger and FIERCE "you got this wrong" emotionalism. The other day on foundmagazine.com I was told "once again, you don't know what you're talking about" by a person who was obviously hiding their identity under an assumed screen-name. (Hey, you gonna insult me, dude, do it out loud. Otherwise you just prove what a coward and asswhole you are.) I didn't respond of course, since a) I do know what I'm talking about and b) anyone who takes ANYthing seriously on Found has no life. Even less than me. I think it's just winter. A lot of these peeps need to get some fresh air and get offline for a day or two.

yeah i agree, it's just that this board has kind of always been this way. in the last year i've posted maybe 3 times because the way they are, you post and there's 10 people waiting to jump on you to prove you wrong and make you feel stupid. i've been tempted to go back and read what he said to me after but i know i'll just get angry again, and i already have enough anger problems i don't need that sh!t.

and then they wonder why people delete their accounts and never come back. in the last few months i've seen them run out so many people that have been there over 5 years that just can't take it anymore.

oooh so pretty!  Thanks, Sariea! That always made me giggle... crackberry... hehehe.
I wonder if it's any good, though, since it's the first generation and all...  :-\
