Sprint rocks man, I haven’t paid for a single phone since 04 and have had their best phones, the palm wx and the bb 8830 and the new curve witch is awesome! I can watch cnn and discovery channels and text like a chicken pecker. Internet is fast, andif I have a problem, they fix it or give me a new phone, or once again…another upgrade. Sprint is awesome. I never feel left out with having the phone I have, it does mostly all. I wish it had flash tho.

uhhhhhh if the iPhone key pad is to small, and you hit 2 buttons when you try to press one, whats the difference if the q and w keys are actually one? Your still hitting 2 letters and letting the software figure it out. The plus with apples is that if your not impaired when your typing you can be very accurate. you can press one button for one letter. But if you do end up pressing 2 letter, it can figure it out for you. So, in a way, its like the suretype feature, with something like a value added.

I hear the THUNDER will have a SURETYPE softward KEYBOARD (ala pearl) vs the full QWERTY. The primary problem with the IPHONE keyboard is the keys are TOO small….with a SURETYPE SOFTWARE KEYBOARD, the KEYS WILL BE TWICE AS BIG, and twice as easy to use………surprised APPLE doesn’t offer this, it seems like a no-brainer

“BKW13 has it all wrong Sprint and TMob reduce their cost to be more competitive and have longer term clients and can afford to do it. Networks are always going to compete but the bottom line Sprint and Verizon have a great foothold in this country and will continue to build. ATT has alot of growing ang money to fork out to ket up with the big boys. Oh, and if you don’t know TMob works on the ATT GSM networks”

Dude you gotta be kidding me. lol Anybody with common sense thinks that a business would make their prices much lower than their competition even if there product was really up to par with the competition? Lol. And they are doing it to be more competitive? Are you really on this planet called Earth? Look at Sprint? They actually lose more customers than they bring in. Compete? They have to lower their prices to compete because their customer service and their product is simply not up to par. Why do you think Tmobile and Sprint has so few customers in comparison to Verizon and AT&T? Say something that makes sense please. And why do neither of these 2 companies ever bring anywhere as close as many customers in each quarter as Verizon and AT&T?

I find this very disappointing. I love BB and think it is great they are going to release a product that will be far superior to the toy called the iPhone. However, locking it to Verizon counts me out forever. Verizon may have a good network, but their prices are ridiculous. There is a reason AT&T continues to stay far in the lead. AT&T has great customer service (and this did not used to be true) and a great network.

“is ATT and TMO’s ability to offer less expensive plans a function of less costly technology”

First of all, ATT doesn’t offer less expensive plans. Tmobile and Sprint offers less expensive plans because they don’t have the network quality and consumer base to be able to demand a higer price point. If either were as large and had the network quality of Verizon or ATT, they wouldn’t be offering cheapo plans, it makes no business sense.

I am trying to do a Jedi Mind Trick on myself hoping that I won’t have the same issues with the BlackBerry Thunder that I do with the iPhone. At the end of the the day I will get one if for no other reason than the BlackBerry Thunder will be so evolutionary to BlackBerry design compared to what’s out today that I simply cannot pass it up if for nothing more than to just talk about it.
