3G is NOT needed for an email device. Look at the 81xx series, 83xx series, and 88xx Blackberries. All brilliant email phones and none are 3G.
My iPhone is 3G and still falls behind my 8310 in its email handling capabilities.”
I knew the Bold was quite a problematic handset, and quite a few of them get returned to store.
I knew this was not the case with the 8900, hence my opinion.
However, I was not aware that the 8900 did not have 3G, which is, in my opinion a must have nowadays, especially as more handsets are being used to browse the internet, including the Blackberry, even though it is primarily an email device.
don't shoot me down in flames because I made an opinion without swallowing the spec sheet on each handset.
I may not be as well informed as some other people on here, but I do know on what basis I form my opinions.
I know people who have bolds, with problems, and 8900s without any problems, all of these helped my form an opinion.
