Thanks, Bards.

Wow. A blackberry. Yeah. Then, all I'd have to do is:
add a touchscreen.
and effective multitasking of programs.
and calendars that sync with my desktop's Outlook without a hiccup.
and, of course, update the email from like the mainframe days
and...

I'd have a Treo, circa 2008.

Pity the choices are few:
1) iphone and pay at

ok, I found a good filter for blackberry's - its called an Email only plan!  After calling several times to my provider, unsuccesfully trying to reduce my megabyte usage (which would therefore reduce my temptation to go on bad sites as it would cost $$), someone suggested an email only plan for me.  No internet browsing is available, but who cares?  I thought of all the times in the past I really needed my bb for important internet usage and it was very minimal.  True I have to sacrifice the convience of not having instantaneous updates on weather, sports, and news, but I think I know this is better.  All the other instantaneous messaging are still available such as BB mesenger, google talk, windows live, yahoo., etc.

I highly reccommend this for anyone if the bb is a nisayon for you.
