sell those old phones if you still have them. There’s gold in your desk drawer!
Heck, I just sold a blackberry Torch for $180. iPhones fetch $200 all day.
Yeah, the kids use them and already broke a couple. Oddly enough, the 1st gen phone is the one that keeps on ticking, almost 5 years later
Invented? or copied from Palm and their treo which was on the market a few years before blackberry?
Ok so once blackberry finally had web support in 2003 it had 4 good years of being the only descent option available… until 2007 when the iphone came out. Thats where they fell behind and never caught up.
But between the palm and the blackberry… other then BBM RIM was never LIGHT YEARS ahead of anything… they had a slight advantage and BBM took them forward in the days before texting.
Lol ok. I remember having email blackberry devices long before palm was anything.
My worry is that since I hate all the other phones on the market that I’m going to end up having to use something I don’t like when RIM stops making new handsets…
Sigh…
Well you get to upgrade at least 1 more time with Blackberry 10. After that only time will tell unfortunately.
Finally got to stretch my phones new LTE legs lol
nice download speeds…

And since speed tests = dyno’s … i wanted to see how fast that translated out in the real world.
Downloaded a 400 meg file in under 5 minutes at 3540 kb/s. I will need to download a much larger file to see how high i can really go with actual download speeds!

Great analogy! Speed test.net puts my cable connection at about 42mbits/s. I never see that in real life. I suspect the rest of the internet is the bottleneck 
42 megabits = 5 megabytes per second
That is also a peak value, not an average value.
Your download shows average speed. A.K.A. area under the curve.
Your speedtest # is your peak speed, A.K.A. your peak WHP.
p.s. fastest my phone every had on LTE was up in the 50 megabits per second range. incredible LTE.
^^ yep when I said I never see those speeds, I meant I never see 42 megabits/s (I always write it out) ie I never see 5 megabytes/s. Except for multiple downloads which is rare.
ahh gotcha. You watch the little speed counter the whole time?
