When my current 2008-vintage Blackberry Bold 9000 showed signs of impending failure -- and knowing that a newer model would work better and solve some annoying shortcomings in the 9000 -- I looked around at the current choices, including iPhone and several Android models. But, for the same price, I decided to stick with Blackberry. The new Bold 9900 is quite a nice unit and much faster than the 9000. <br /><br />What I can't fathom is that RIM/Blackberry seem to be giving up without a fight. Back in 2008, AT&T ran an extensive television advertising campaign for the Bold 9000. Today, there isn't a peep about the Bold 9900, even though it is a much better smartphone.<br /><br />About my only real gripe is that Amazon hasn't bothered to update its Kindle software to be compatible with the current Blackberry OS. That kind of thing is a disadvantage with Blackberry.Voiceguynoreply@blogger.com
