My wife's simple little flip phone died a slow death so we stopped at the Sprint store and she, very hurriedly, without much thought, picked a Blackberry Curve phone for her new phone.
Now I've been using various PALM smart phones for at least a half dozen years and find them simple and reasonably powerful. This Blackberry is so damn complicated in comparison to the PALM phone that if it were mine I'd take it back and trade it in.
What the heck am I missing because I do not see the appeal of the Blackberry? To do the same thing that I do with my PALM it takes more scrolling and clicking and hunting and pecking than I think it should.
Now I'm not saying the Blackberry is not a powerful little bit of electronics, it has FACEBOOK and even SPRINT TV on the phone. WTF for I dunno. But it has it.
Can someone enlighten me?
Better yet, come and explain it to my wife, she couldn't even figure out how to dial the damn phone to call the neighbor!
