Im stuck on what one to get, i think the 8900 has better spec like the camera and flash but im not keen on the trackball. I mainly use my phone for texting and using the internet, what one is best for me??
Thanks

8900 old, screen/cam better than 8520 but i would probably pick the latter due to its age.
Get a 9700 tho if you can!

Not interested in the gps tbh, i've only heard bad things about the scroll button's on the 8900 though. Which one is best for internet use?
Thanks

I like the touchpad "thing" on my 8520, it's gash for internet browsing though in my opinion

not the best idea tbh. I'm running OS6 and i have to do a battery pull at least once a day due to memory leak. OS6 is very good, but that might put some people off.
Get a 9780 if you want a Bold as it already comes with OS6 and has the extra memory to handle it.

Imho the only BB's I'd own would be the Bold 9000 / 9700 with old O/S or the new Bold 9780 or Torch 9800.

Is it hard to put os6 on a 9700? and is it hard to revert back to original if I dont like it?

I can't get on with OS6 on the 9780. I don't think it's an ideal platform on tue small screen. It's cluttered.
Works perfectly on the torch tho!!
My trackpad has broken and my phone is 9weeks old
