gkast1, in Los Angeles, 7105t. I picked it up for a song from a closing-down Comp USA store... opting for T-Mobile because my laptop PCMCIA GC79 card from them had performed fine. The latter I had chosen because I was happy with my T-Mobile cellphone... which hadn't been my decision, I simply fell into their lap when they acquired Voicestream [HI JILL!]. That had been my first cellphone, in Seattle. [TMo still honors my Voicestream voice plan... which raises eyebrows every time a TMo rep looks at my account!] Pros: TMo prices are reasonable The device is sturdy...it has taken bumps, drops and spills and still works fine. CAVEAT, one of my keys just stopped working today...but that's another thread I am able to use the 7105t as a tethered modem for my laptop (figured out how), so I no longer need the GC79 card. Cons: TMo Support's voice-recognition front end is terrible, as far as I am concerned. But the live Support is OK, and when some matter is beyond them they do forward me to RIM Support, which is exemplary! I resent not being able to access the T-Mobile website from the Berry. Coverage leaves something to be desired, especially in non-metropolitan areas. While in a National Park I was miffed to see both my Berry and my cellphone without signal, while people next to me were chatting away on theirs. Originally I had second thoughts about the trackwheel. Now, however, I know it, no more slips... and I do NOT want to upgrade to a trackball Berry!
