[franchise3]

Bhz that's what I'm wondering as well. How our 2 year upgrade is factored in in the final pricing.

I'll call eventually but if anybody knows, feel free to chime in

If you are 2 year eligible, you SHOULD be able to get the phone at new customer/contract pricing which would be $199

Usually people who are 1 year eligible get $75 off...the RETAIL of the phone. In this case. 75$ off $499

So if you think you'd rather get $175 off the phone. Don't get it twisted for knocking that off retail. It would be still be 325.

What you wanna be eligible for/shoot for is the new customer/contract pricing.

 

[sheistbugz]

Blackberry Bold or Tour. I have the pearl right now but want a little more power. I'm on T-mobile. any help would be apprc

 

[remarqable23]

Best OS for battery life on the 8900?

 

[therav4]

Quick question: Is there a Blackberry on the market with at least a 3.2 megapixel camera with WIFI on a GSM network? If not, is there one coming up?

Thanks. The Curve 8900 Javelin? I'm Canadian by the way so it is Rogers/Fido for me unfortunately. I have always been a windows mobile guy, but I'mlooking around. Nothing serious.

@ Sprint. No wonder you guys are failing.

Thanks for continuing to let me slide through the loopholes though

Looks like you have the same plan as I do. I just Ordered my Tour and it should be here by Thrusday.

u guys did that "new" Sero plan, right? the one where u need an email and the 3 digit pin

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

So I'm on Verizon now since it gobbled up alltell and I want a new phone. Somebody suggested the Blackberry tour? No idea about this phone. Anyone chime inw/ pros/cons?

Let me get at your tomorrow about it. I was supposed to get my hands on my unit today but UPS done #%&& up my delivery.

Right off I can tell you it's considered the true upgrade to the Bold + Curve.

Only true knock on it right now is the lack of wifi. And it's still running the 4.7 OS. (5.0 rolling out soon enough though)

Will be back in here tomorrow for a full review.

Nah if you already have a Sero plan you don't even need that pin to get that. If you are eligible for an upgrade you ask them to switch yourplan to the simply everything plus 500. If you don't have an upgrade and don't mind activating a new line you can still do the same and pay $199


and dre here is a review for the tour. I know you said you are on Verizon, you just got on there? I heard someone say you can get this for $99 at Best buy w/ 2year contract, don't know if that is true though.

[23mcpizzle23]

tour = GOAT i love this damn thing

 

[Too_smoooth]

How much are you guys paying for your Verizon monthly bill?? I'm thinking of switching over

 

[israel5ekla]

Whoever wants a blackberry tour I got em. 3 day shipping. PM me if you need one or any other sprint phone.

No mail in rebates with me, straight discounts.

If you are 2 year eligible, you SHOULD be able to get the phone at new customer/contract pricing which would be $199
2 year eligible what? upgrade it sounds like your saying. WRONG. Thats when you get a new line of service itll be $199 2 yar contract.

1 year eligible upgrade you get $75 back from paying full retail price $500 for tour or 2 year eligible upgrade you get $150 back from full retail price.

I got the best prices and can price match in store prices.

The person that lost the phone prolly told verizon it got lost/stolen so it wont be able to be activated at all.

Quick question: Is there a Blackberry on the market with at least a 3.2 megapixel camera with WIFI on a GSM network? If not, is there one coming up?
Blackberry curve 8900 on T mobile. I have it, itll be up on the buy sell forum on here.

 

[conductzero]

I got a Blackberry 8330 for Sprint a while ago and i'm going on a trip outta the states for a month or so. I lost my ipod so I wanna use my Blackberry as amusic player.

If I turn off my data plan, I should be good right? As in I don't have to pay for roaming or anything?

 

[jp310]

So far i am loving my Tour. First BB btw.

i'm eligible for the 75 dollar upgrade, is that good enough?

what is this you speak of activating a new line? would be I be on the everything plus? I'm not following.....you can pm the info if it's a bit much.

Same here...

Assuming you were with Alltel at least 2yrs and you're eligible for an upgrade you can get the Tourfor 169.99

I'm planning on copping as soon as I decide which plan to get

 

[joeyd16]

Wouldn't mind being able to trade my storm in for the Tour, too bad that isn't possible :-/
