That's the thing about the blackberry, I've had all the other brands, droid, apple etc and would go back to droid, if only the gz one was gsm as it's the gshock of the android phones as I like the droid ui
My first bb was the 7100 t ... 6/7 years ago
But the bb as a communication device, communicator and mobile office on the go works well for me

NO need to ever pull your battery out again.

The 9800 was what I used for a whole year without problems and a good few in the office upgraded to the 9810 & 9860 a few months now without problems
IMO the downsize is a smaller keyboard but you have a much larger screen

what made u switch from iphone back to BB?
im thinking about switching back to BB. Even though android is gr8, Blackberry is just better as a communication device with the physical keyboard,BBM,etc. The iphone and android touchscreen phones seem more geared towards multimedia and gaming.

To clear up some RAM on ur device to decrease chances of freezing hold "alt" and type L,G,L,G and a setta stuff comes up...it's the log, press menu button and select clear log and clear it....
A next thing to do that's harder is this...OPTIONS>>>SECURITY>>>ADVANCED SECURITY SETTINGS>>>MEMORY CLEANING.....make sure "enabled" is ticked..."clean on idle" at 5 mins and tick "place memory cleaner shortcut on home screen"...after u do this the phone will ask u to reboot...reboot and the loading screen comes up...after it loads up go on ur "applications" folder and u'd see memory cleaner in there...anytime ur phone running sluggish do the "alt" L,G,L,G and run the memory cleaner and ur phone will run as fast as if you've done a battery pull GUARANTEED
What is the best gaming peripheral we have seen at GDC? Would you believe it if we said a Blackberry phone?
Yes, SemiAccurate spent yesterday crawling both massive show floors at GDC, and we found one, yes one, innovative peripheral. (Note: The little rubber ducky was cute but not ‘innovative’) It was a Blackberry smartphone running a little app that seems blindingly obvious in hindsight. The app was written by a RIM engineer, coincidentally the same one who owns the hands on the device in the picture below.
D-Pad app, simple but brilliant
The innovation here is made possible by the Blackberry’s tight synchronization with their Playbook tablet. This allows you to open apps and media on the phone, and have it display on the Playbook. You can then use the Blackberry as a remote control for presentations and whatnot. So far, so corporate.
With this little app, instead of a remote mouse pointer, the author turned it in to a D-Pad. Yup, a fully functional touch screen D-Pad as a remote controller for the game running on the Playbook. In the picture above, the big screen is being driven by the Playbook’s HDMI port, but the same concept works for say kids in a car on a road trip.
It is simple, brilliant, and thinking outside the box. Once someone does it, it seems so obvious, but we can’t find anyone that actually did it before now, so hats off to Blackberry engineers for pushing the gaming frontiers. All they need to do now is allow you to customize your controller, and it could make the phone + Playbook combo a nifty gaming platform. Who would have thought anyone would say that about RIM?

go with the 9900, you wouldn't regret it
if you want the os7, if not the os6 works well on the 9800 9810

The new OS7 doesn't work on the 9800 (os6 devices). You need a QuadCore (DUAL CORE)processor for OS7. I read OS7 works great on the 9810.
That's why my choice is limited to the 9860 or 9900.
