    ok i gotta question. Is the least expensive blackberry (the 7100 i think) good for surfing the net? The speed doesn't matter to me, but can i surf the internet about as good as on a computer? Can I see the whole web page like on a tmobile sidekick?

    Re: blackberry question

    No blackberry, or cell phone for that matter, is anywhere near as good at cruising the web as a computer hooked to dsl or broadband. First of all, the 7100 only has 32mb of memory. And the connection will be, at best, what you get from a 56K modem. A pc with decent memory can cruiise the web with no problems, due to its' ability to cache pages, and handle a lot of large pictures
    The slow connection and small memory means that you need to go to wap pages, or text and small pictures, web pages, rather than the full pages of many websites.
