i870 is good. its got alot of functions but its simple to use at the same time. the treo you can only get with sprint. i wanted one 2 but nextel doesnt have a service for those. i got the new black berry from nextel when it first came out but i gave it up the first week i had it cuz its more like a bizz phone but its got alot of koo functions to it.

I have the i870. Works good looks nice. It does have a lot of functions. Cool little MP3 Player. The screen is nice big and clear.

im thinking of getting a black berry, only thing i dont like is that it doesnt have a camera but i rarely use the one on my current phone, only use it to make caller id pics.
i have to switch the account over to my name tomorrow morning so i can add my fedex discount, i was 17 when the account was made so i couldnt get it under my name.
im getting the unlimited data usage package, so i can have Cafords on the go

I have had 3 different Blackberrys and I have come to the conclusion that they all suck.

If you don't get emails through them you have no reason to have one.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY JUST BECAUSE THE PHONE IS BIG AND HAS A BIG SCREEN AND LOTS OF BUTTONS.

i sell nextel and sprint, no you cannot use sprint phones for nextel. completely different service/formats. do not get the blackberry they are very hit and miss, some work great and last forever some are POS's and very unreliable. the i870 and an awsome phone i dont know anyone that has it that is un-happy.

LOL, why ask for advice then not take it? your choice though, like i said there is a chance you get a good one and a good chance you get a bad 1.

well my mom just got off the phone with nextel, were switching the account to my name(i was 17 when i got it, so moving it from her name to me) so i can get my fedex discount, sad news that it will take 5 days to do the switch becuase they have to run a credit check on me.so ill have to wait on the BB. i want a treo but i want nextel service.
