My First Blackberry

August29

rim white pearl 1 My First BlackberryI have been detached from a personal mobile device for more than a year now.  Last year, I just felt no need for one since I have my Voice Over Internet Provider (VOIP).  We had our VOIP disconnected this year when I left for the Netherlands.  When I came back, I started applying for jobs and recruiters would call me through Travis’ mobile.  It was okay at first when Travis didn’t have work yet.  But it is starting to be disappointing when Travis would get calls for me about jobs and I would only be able to call them back when TS is home from work which is usually when recruiters’ are out of the office as well.

Yesterday, we were both came into a decision that I need a phone.  He asked me if I wanted a mobile phone or we’d simply get another VOIP.  I weighed things and it turned out that I’m more inclined to get a mobile phone in case I might start a job, at least I have it with me all the time.  I first considered of having a prepaid phone.  Afterall, I won’t be using the phone that much unless I get calls or I need to call my prospect employers.

Travis had a better idea instead.  So, we drove to the mall and had a talk with a T-mobile representative.  He was honest and accommodating.  Travis decided to add me on his account and gave me his Blackberry Pearl 8100 White while he got himself a new T-mobile Dash a.k.a. HTC Excalibur.  It is very nice for a first phone.  I liked its features and the blackberry internet service.  It is very convenient for me.  I already got used to the two-touch keys of the QUERTY keyboard.  I have been playing with it today and I am liking it.  I will be making a review about it later on.

For now, it is time to say hello to my first Blackberry phone!

    Grand Forks is 149 miles from our town, Jamestown Jacy. That’s north of Fargo. I have been to Grand Forks last Halloween of 2007. We visited the University of ND and I did a little shopping for my winter clothes there too.
