It's a shame really. When I got my (then new) Blackberry Curve back in September it was sleek, black and had the standard business class look. Back then it was something that only i possessed in my school, and even more proud, i was part of the 'Blackberry 5' (only 5 people had Blackberries then). Not like you would care much, but I valued it.
Then a few months later a Blackberry craze swept across London and soon people were busy putting their PINS up as statuses on facebook and such. It was great, at first, since my collection of contacts on bbm steadily increased, but this also made bbm.....well, shitty. I have like 50 contacts but in reality I only ever do speak to only 3 people. Its just made it feel unnecessary to own a BB anymore.
Then a month ago an iPhone 4 came into my possession, and i must say, despite all the media hoo hah about the signal problem it is a great phone. Why? Well, its just kept me connected to my iPod, phone and ability to play apps all into ONE device. Awesome indeed. And its just made me realise, Blackberry PIN seems so unnecessary, because there is something called 'texting'. And don't give me argument that 'oh its free texting' cos its not. Frankly i've paid an extra £5 a month for internet to use BBM. The iPhone gives you a better deal, Facetime. Let us forget about just texting or BBM-ing people and lets talk face-to-face like human beings for once? And its even more awesome cos its 100% free. Nice.
So my tip if you're buying a phone? Get the iPhone 4 cos it really is the better deal, don't get caught further into this Blackberry craze.
