My sister's Xmas decorations at her house

The LG Xenon a great free text messaging cell phone for at&t mobility.

The Pantech Breeze is the best basic cell phone for at&t mobility.

My sister's Xmas decorations at her house

The last two days I switch my at&t phone to a Blackberry 8900 from the Apple iPhone. I was bored and I am still waiting for Blackberry to send me my free Blackberry 9700.

What I did after downloading Blackberry app world was download Pandora first, my favorite application for any device. Next I downloaded Bolt mobile web browser and the I looked for a Blogging application. My emails came in perfectly after I changed the device in the Blackberry web client.

The first night I took the Blackberry 8900 to the gym, I wanted to listen to Pandora while I worked out, like I always did with my Blackberry Bold 9000. The Blackberry 9000 is 3G and the Blackberry 8900 is only EDGE and Pandora on a 8900 sucks. The EDGE network is way to slow for Pandora. I use in my house with wifi and that works a lot better but the Pandora application sticks while on the EDGE network to unacceptable waiting times. I have gone 5 or more minutes waiting time and 30 seconds to a minute between songs becomes the norm.

The Bolt browser had a new software update 1.6 that released recently and I wanted to try it on the 8900. The first improvement that I appreciated the most was the password saving option. The browser worked perfectly and I was working on at&ts EDGE network not the 3G that I am used too on the Bold.
I did use the 8900 without a sim card so I could test Pandora and Bolt exclusively on wifi. They both worked perfectly with no difficulty.

This draft is a mishmosh of different days of just editing this post on the fly from the Blackberry 8900 with the Bolt Browser. This last paragraph is being done with the Apple iPhone 3G and the Wordpress application.
