That's what I call my latest addiction to my new BlackBerry 8700. (my addictions seem to be multiplying........yikes!) The 8700 is the newest model. (I'm such a gadget snob.) It is SO addictive you won't believe me until you get one for yourself. It has everything. All your email accounts (up to 10), your calendar of appointments, address book, bluetooth, incredibly fast web surfing, of course your phone, and tons of other things I have yet (and most likely never will) learn how to use. Probably the best thing about it is it's ergonomic design. The click wheel is the BOMB! It's super easy to use and very intuitive for you tech dummies (or technology challenged if you prefer PC lingo). It costs around $500 for the new 8700. Sometimes you can get a significant discount if you extend your existing plan with your phone service provider. But it's worth every penny of $500, trust me! So chalk up one more addiction to add to my list. ~:)>

Which service provider do you have? I see T-mobile is giving the 8700g away with a new contract, but I'm not sure about the quality of their service.

I have a Crackberry 8700 with Cingular. It's been good to me the last few months.
