Would be nice to see a new pearl with a 2mp camera and 3G-but think that's a way off thing!

I can't believe I am saying this..but I have turned off my K800i and chucked it in a drawer. The Blackberry Pearl 8100 on Orange Business is the most incredible all-round "phone" I have ever used. It is seamless with office email - wireless sync on calendar, contacts and email. You can effortlessly add Gmail accounts, google talk, google maps etc etc. Ok so it is no 3.2 MP Camera but its useable and the screen is good. Even a serviceable media player. - Very impressive! |

Hi all,
Any of you on Orange with the Blackberry Email Only plan?
and have you ever gone over your 6mb bundle?
Can you add a Orange World Bundle onto plan also? such as u/l eve & w/ends? |

I'm on Orange.. Your supposed to have world access 25 at £16 per month if you have a blackberry on BIS. I, however only had WA10 at £8 and I've not gone over and I'm on msn all day, get about 50/60 emails a day and use BB messenger a bit...

I've never really understood the benefit of having a blackberry device for emails. i.e. I have never really understood the need for push email.
I have been with t-mobile web'n'walk for a long time now and any phone I have is set to retrieve emails every 10 minutes and so I am never more than 10 minites behind live emails. My office supplies blackberries on request but I set a rule in my office Lotus Notes to forward emails to my personal email automatically and so again I see these within 10 minutes.
this way I get to use the phone of my choice and can receive and reply to emails very quickly
using VPN I also have access to the office intranet
so... what am I missing out on by not having a blackberry?

well, I've always been in a crowd of 1 I guess so nothing new there! but surely there is something more about blackberry that vpn and regular email checking on a normal phone doesn't achieve?

Not really lol,
although BB messenger is a very good way of talking over IM completely free, mind you it does have to be with another BB user. lol
I just really like the simplicity of it, setting it up take about 2 minutes and consumers like that as there not as tech savvy as most people on these forums.
So its the simplicity that i love about my BB.

@super...,
"the simplicity of it"...?! Well, it took me 5 mins to set up 3 completely different accounts on my e61, and like masseur I set it up to automatically retrieve all mail - every 30 mins... If you install profimail it's even easier to set up! In addition, I can open, edit, and send back word/excel docs... On my treo 750v it was equally simple - I can even edit/scribble notes on pictures and return (proofing brochures, e.g.)... What I'm saying is: if simplicity's the reason, then it's time for bb to come up with someting new, isn't it?
