Galaxy S will be sold in a couple of days so i will have the kaplingy to buy my Blackberry.
Before we start, i have an iPhone and don't need an Android phone. Im after something to replace my Nokia E75 which is getting on a bit now and i want BBM.
So i had my heart set on the white Bold:

But since waiting for my Galaxy S to arrive/sell on ebay the Torch was released.

Now it has a few things that i don't actually "need" such as the web browser being better, all i would need it for is checking google and emergency cs browsing should my iPhone be out of battery (  ) so either can do that. The torch has a better camera which i would deffo use and need. The screen is bigger which is always a bonus and has the same keyboard as the Bold.
The major downsides are thus. Its bigger (already carrying another phone) and heavier. Its also a tad overkill for what i need it for. Which is basically txting and most importantly emailing. Plus to add to this its more expensive.
Now, the thing is the Bold has been out a year, its technically an "old" phone. Torch is newer,
WHICH ONE?!
I can't make up[ my mind. Halp

*have played around extensively with both and the OS on the Torch is far superior.

I prefer having two, its simple for me. Remember i am on mine like 24hrs a day so if i had one id need to carry a bag of batteries. Plus i like ot seprerate work and home a bit too. It makes sense to me, i just think if i got the torch then i would essentially be pushing the limits carrying two huge phones around '

Why are you always on the phone?
Don't you work in a phone shop, so should be serving customers?!
Not sure I get why you need 2 phones either!

If you purely wanted it for BBM I'd have said Bold.

Go for the bold, its still an excellent phone and it seems pointless carrying more weight and paying more for a phone that you are using just for emailing and texting. IMO.
