Millhouse... We're in EMS - why would we need blackberrys?

I've got a Samsung Blackjack, and I love it.... it is nice to not need a palm pilot, MP3 player, and phone... it's all in one.

I'll let you know when i can afford/need one. i hear they are great for drug administration drips rates etc.

There are more programs available for Palm based systems. Shoulda gone with a Treo...

I agree with Jeremy! I have a Palm Treo 700WX. I also have a BB, but I like the Palm better because it has all the same features as the new BB's except GPS and it has an expansion slot for a 2 Gig memory card, thats where I save everything at. I have Epocrates and emedic loaded on it. The Blackberry runs on a network, so you have to get the expensive mobile internet plans through the mobile carrier. The Palm does not connect to a network so your not forced to get the mobile internet plan, you can just use the WIFI feature and use the phone at WIFI hot spots but I have wireless internet at my home and at school so that is where i use mine most.

I have the world edition BB. Love mine about 90% of the time. What programs are you using or did you find. For a web browser, get www.operamini.com It kicks BBs azz.
