Thinking about jumping off the bb ship into some more exciting waters.

Unlocked to work for both Digi and tstt, anywhere in the world for that matter, Very good condition, no scratches on screen etc.

Interested?

What waters you diving into?

Android, still nailing down model, looks like the Nexus one @400us is the winner.

tempted to go Android myself but doubt I can convince the entire office to make the switch

Went for the Nexus One.

This will be available as early as next Thursday or Friday so place your dibs now.

GG @ price of that Nexus One

I wanna go Android too, but not at that price, maybe something around US$250

$385 to be exact.

Was looking at that all the time, physical keyboard is really really tempting for me but I opted to pay an extra 15us for that 1ghz snapdragon cpu and double ram and make do with the soft keyboard.

So a drastic price drop may be in order.

How does $1600 sound?

This is the absolute lowest im willing to go, already making a loss.

Husk4197 · « **Reply #9 on:** November 01, 2010, 02:23:41 PM »

it tempting..............should i? I already have a 8520......think it's an upgrade or just lateral movement?

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #10 on:** November 01, 2010, 02:41:24 PM »

Lateral movement to be quite honest. It does everything the 8520 does but with more style.

Its good to know that you dont have a 'me too' phone. I wanted to be a bit above the cut and this achieved that with flying colours.

^^ Style you say, understatement of the century! Lets compare here:

Curve (Bold)

2.0 MP Camera (3.15 MP Camera)
320 x 240 res (480 x 360 res)
512 mhz proc (624 mhz proc)
OS 4.6 - upgradeable to 5.0 (Os 5.0 Upgradeable to 6.0!!!!) <-Most important feature here

So you get a more compact phone, with a crisper screen, better camera, faster processor and one of the only phones available now that supports OS 6.0 (which is a big deal by the way), and at $1600, the man practically giving u the phone (whoever's interested that is).

Best deal cap on a best phone!

Very much interested calls dibbssssss

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #13 on:** November 01, 2010, 06:07:13 PM »

Well ultimate lay it down there better than I could.

Reason I bought this was primarily for os upgrade capacity.

Barely a month has passed and I am tired waiting. Incidentally, I just got finished playing with a Torch. Interface is nice but still, unmistakably, Blackberry.

After 9 months in bb land I realise that I am itching for a change, hence the sale.

Huge loss im making but such is life sometimes.

Mailman, dibs go to you. You'll have to find yourself in POS for pickup though.

The true power of OS 6 lies in the potential for apps. The OS 6 API's leveraging some serious power. Too bad I have to stick in OS 4.6.1 for now

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #15 on:** November 02, 2010, 01:45:39 PM »

Speaking of which, the first leak of os6 is out for the 9700!!

Consider this sale officially on hold.

*runs and downloads new os!!!*

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #16 on:** November 06, 2010, 11:57:05 AM »

Ok, now that ive gotten a replacement and experienced its awesomeness, the bb is just sitting here doing nothing.

back on sale ppl, as is, same price.

Who say it??

TriniXaeno · « **Reply #17 on:** November 06, 2010, 02:06:33 PM »

The OS 6 ain't save it? way boy...things so bess with Android?

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #18 on:** November 06, 2010, 03:12:54 PM »

OS6 real real bess, a lot of improvement over os5 but in the end, the sheer flexibility of Android won out.

If money was no object, i'd take out another data sim asap but the Android win.

Preston786 · « **Reply #19 on:** November 07, 2010, 08:44:36 AM »
