Blackberry wants vs. needs

Been a couple of days since I blogged about my problem with the call dropping issue on my Blackberry Storm2 unit. It’s a good thing the supplier from whom I got the units has agreed to let me replace the unit from any of the products they have on their online store, or a refund, whichever I preferred. He also did tell me that they have already found the solution to the call dropping issue, which they got from emailing Verizon directly. It seems that they need to install some sort of a patch to take care of the call dropping.

Personally, it took me a long time to decide after I got wind of all these info as I may have already been hooked on my BB even though I still didn’t have it hooked up through the Blackberry Internet Service (how much more if I already did!!!). Over the Iphone, I prefer the touchscreen mechanism of the BB Storm 2 as I feel as though it allows me more control over the input keys.

Now I could really say that I am on a bind. My mobile plan lock up would be expiring on August this year and after that comes, I would like to do away with my other cellular phone and just retain one unit. I would prefer that the unit I would retain to have mobile data capability (unlimited surfing if possible like the BIS). Problem is, they don’t tie up postpaid mobile network plans with prepaid BIS. It is also hard to let go of the Globe mobile network plan since Globe has started offering Superduo services, wherein for just PhP 499 on top of your regular plan, you can already avail of unlimited calls to Globe and TM units as well as to landline phones in the NCR area. I do hope they also offer prepaid BIS to go with a postpaid call and text account.
