I have the pearl (8130 i think?), SureType works well once it learns some of your words and you get used to it very quickly.

I like to carry my phone in my pocket so the smaller size of the pearl over the curve is a deal maker.

pm me your BB number for messenger so I can harass you more often.

I've got it sort of worked out.... My buddy can text and send pix to my blackberry email. I can respond with the vtext addy but I can't send to the vzwpix addy. Same with my gf but we just use bb messenger. I just need to know if/how I can get multimedia messages to fly...

iPhone on AT&T - I travel a lot and generally don't have receiption problems.

I have like 2k minutes a month.

i'm really surprised how many people have only a certain amount of minutes each month

my cell phone is my only phone, i gotta have the unlimited minutes, and i text a lot at work, so i gotta have that unlimited too, plus me and my friends are always sending each other random stupid pics, so i gotta have that unlimited too...

i guess $49.00 a month isnt too bad?

Is it a limitation on the size of the pics you're trying to send? Have you tried knocking down the resolution on the pictures you're trying to send to the vzwpix address to see if it's being filtered out for being over a certain size?

Verizon family plan-4 phones-unlimited everything-roughly $200.00
With teenagers it was the way to go. My daughter can send over 1,000 text in a month without even blinking

The kids have cheaper phones (they want BB they can pay for 'em), I have the indestructible phone (so far rings true, dropped it 150' down a mnt and still works, worked all day in pouring rain, still works) Jeeps has the new BB storm and he seems to love it although he sometimes boob dials me if he hit his chest on something while at work. His has all the bells and whistles and seems to work great.

Sorry that was really poorly written... I can't send anything... Plain text or pic to the vzwpix addy.
