Which BB?

[@K]

I've decided I want to get a Blackberry as my next phone, so tomorrow I'm going to go get the Blackberry Curve 8530. I was just wondering which Blackberry people prefer, now I would rather get the Bold 9700 (Onyx) but I don't start work until next month, and I'm not going to get a contract as when I do start work (army), I won't be based in the UK, minus the first six months as I've opted for the Gibraltar Regiment in Spain.

So all in short, which Blackberry would you suggest I get when I have the money?

BTW: I will never buy the Storm.

TBH Blackberry bold 9700 is much nicer imo, and if you like touchscreen phones you should try the blackberry storm 2, though if your not getting contract i'd stick to the Curve, but all in all its mainly up too you have a go on them and see which you prefer because they all have ups and downs

Cheers for the info, but I have had enough with touch screens, I despise the Tocco and my iPhone I gave to my dad lol. To be honest though, I don't mind about paying the price for the 9700 when I have the money, I'd just rather spend the money on something I'm happy with and will enjoy, so people's views will help a lot. Plus, it may be difficult to have a little play with each one as I don't know when I'll be having time off etc., so I will just order from a website.

Well i've used a BB Bold 9700 and tbh it was much smoother as it had better icons so it made it feel better idk why :S unlike the curve (friend has one) and it felt easier to navigate with cause of the trackpad its also much better to browse the internet with and i believe u can also get applications on the bold 9700.

Well I doubt I'll use it for apps anyway, because I use my iPod Touch consistently, but cheers for the info =)
