I NEED a BB just for my contacts on bbm.
The keyboard is whicked.
The battery is a catastrophy !!!
I use only 2G, disabled wifi+bluetooth, made screen timeouts fast, etc etc, I use BB only for messaging and a little surfing (no calls), and I have to charge my phone sometimes 2x per day!!!
Its a new phone, and follow the rules of filling up all the way, and only charging when almost completely empty, etc...
