  1. Theyre just very efficient. And unlike most phones, they don't really go out of style. Like if you see someone with the old iphone, you'd think, oh eww. But if youd see someone with an old blackberry, youd probably think they use their phone to it's max potential and their fine with their old phone, its sort of like an aging authority figure.

  2. Well, I've had the torch for about 36 hours and I gotta say it's a very good phone. It doesn't have a 1ghz processor and and an amazing screen BUT it all adds up to better battery life for the torch the physical keyboard is as good as any other blackberry and the on screen keyboard as good as any other other touch screen keyboard it has spell correction and suggestion is a great addition. the internet is fairly quick on GPRS/EGDE as 3G.

    It is an amazing upgrade from any phone and good for first time BB users as well as seasoned users. It's no iPhone or galaxy but it is as good as and the battery lasts more than 6 hours which makes a change.
