Why pay all that much money for a Black Sheep?
Quote:
The BlackBerry was once proudly carried by the high-powered and the elite, but those who still hold one today say the device has become a magnet for mockery and derision from those with iPhones and the latest Android phones. Research in Motion may still be successful selling BlackBerrys in countries like India and Indonesia, but in the United States the company is clinging to less than 5 percent of the smartphone market — down from a dominating 50 percent just three years ago. The company’s future all depends on a much-delayed new phone coming next year; meanwhile RIM recorded a net loss of $753 million in the first half of the year compared with a profit of more than $1 billion a year earlier.

Quote:
As the list shrinks of friends who once regularly communicated using BlackBerry’s private messaging service, called BBM, many a BlackBerry owner will not mince words about how they feel about their phone.

“I want to take a bat to it,” Ms. Crosby said, after waiting for her phone’s browser to load for the third minute, only to watch the battery die. “You can’t do anything with it. You’re supposed to, but it’s all a big lie.”

Quote:
Out in the world, the insults continue. Victoria Gossage, a 28-year-old hedge fund marketer, said she recently attended a work retreat at Piping Rock Club, an upscale country club in Locust Valley, N.Y., and asked the concierge for a phone charger. “First he said, ‘Sure.’ Then he saw my phone and — in this disgusted tone — said, ‘Oh no, no, not for that.’

“You get used to that kind of rejection,” she said.

“BlackBerry users are like Myspace users,” sneers Craig Robert Smith, a Los Angeles musician. “They probably still chat on AOL Instant Messenger.”

Quote:
After eight years with a BlackBerry, Mr. Mindel said he just joined the wait list for the iPhone 5. When it arrives, he said, "I’m considering removing my BlackBerry battery, pouring in cement, and using the BlackBerry as an actual paperweight.”

Anything positive about this blackberry? Is it that bad?. Surprisingly a colleague has just picked it for the advertised amount, paying 25k and 20 on our payday-this month. The old saying 'Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder' still makes sense i believe.

How about?

I have the blackberry bold 9900 , as much as iphones are great, I like typing on the blackberry keyboards. The blackberry bold 9900 is by far the best blackberry I've ever used. Its fast, the keyboards great and the design is sleek and sexy! I've had the curve 8520 and blackberry bold 9790. The Bold 9900 is great.

Blackberry sure has its plus and top of it is security. But if you really want a Blackberry then you better wait for the Blackberry devices based on the Blackberry 10 OS to be released somewhere next year, if ever.

Whoever is buying the current Blackberry phones would be stuck on the Blackberry 7 OS (at best) as the Blackberry 10 shall be a new one altogether with no possible upgrades from the current Blackberry OS. So in my opinion 45k for a Blackberry currently is not a good idea.

Maybe that is why you are selling yours soon after buying it.
