my BB 9500 LCD was broke… is there anu repair center here in philippines? how much is it if you think? thank you….

Be aware, if you get your BB through a plan with Smart, I got mine with a Infinity Plan, supposed to be the best they can offer???, mine require work even while in warranty, then smart will not help, they say, buy a new phone, or, it will take 6 months for warranty repair and no replacement while its away!!!!
Smart are full of shit when it comes to warranty, I also had a Sony Ericson, with a faulty screen, they had it for 5 weeks, came back exactly the same, not repaired.
Smart connections are also bad with BB, always losing the signal, and very difficult to report faults.
Cannot comment on Globe or Sun, but Smart??? full of shit service. Never again.

I have never been too techy with phones unlike sa pagkahilig ko sa laptop, kasi for one hindi naman ako nagkakapera sa phone, ako lang gumagastos. Pero ngayon I need to buy a phone na may web browser, pwede kong i hack ang internet connection (you, ang illegal connection, haha) tapos gusto ko din na makapagYM, GTalk with my clients, so ano bang pinakamura na phone na simple lang ang features at hindi ganun ka mahal? I would stick with my jurassic phone kaso I think I need to upgrade because I would be using Google Voice. Ak

anybody know where to buy storm2 9550 here in manila?

Better buy from the official distributor. They can provide you with official BlackBerry warranty and the AirTime Loader pre-installed. Just look for the ATL sticker on the box.

Hi! i planned to buy blackberry storm in the states.is there a chance I could use that in philippines?

Hi! well ive got blackberry storm that I bought in the states and I have globe prepaid. is there a chance I could use globe’s wireless eventhough I’m not postpaid?

a friend of mine has one of those. personally, iphone pa rin ako.

But what do you guys reckon about the Nokia N97? Iphone/Blackberry killer daw eh.

@ sandz, here’s the sitch… blackberry storm has no wifi and has really bad reviews because of the SurePress touchscreen that makes texting slow. it’s the best-looking in my opinion (coz almost everyone has the iphone), but has usability issues. too bad coz its so hot-looking. The Blackberry Bold HAS wifi, so people tend to opt for this smartphone, although it is more expensive than the Storm (it is more functional but has a 2.0 megapixel camera only), and has a QWERTY keyboard lang (and may lalabas na Blackberry Tour that looks almost exactly like it but w/ a better camera at 3.2 MP so why bother…though i dunno when that will come out sa Pinas). The newly released iphone 3GS has the wifi feature, kaso apparently may limitations with multitasking between apps (you get signed off sa isang app before you can use another one), but still is the best-rated thing sa market. idk if that can be improved by apple anytime soon. wala pa rin perfect. Even the follow-up to the Storm (which will be called Thunder and will be released in October in the US), industry insiders are still unsure if it’ll have the wifi feature.

hey guyz?? where can i buy that cool phone?? i want to have one tomorrow.. please???

Is there any black berry service center here in manila? pls reply to my e mail address and phone number of the service center thank you…..

i just got my brandnew blackberry storm here in SG. Iphone killer for me!!!

WTH is Globe’s data plan??? 5-10MB of data?? For a smartphone without wifi, the data plan is horrendous. Here in SG my subscription is 1GB/mo for SGD20.00

what shops are the licensed dealers of blackberry phone? im planning to buy a blackberry

the reviews on it are really bad, I was going to get it but went for the bold. I will wait for the next blackberry storm to come out next year.

TechLord, the iPhone is definitely the “it” phone for casual phone users. If you need a more serious and flexible phone. Possibly consider Windows Mobile. Symbian is good but they need to work more on their touchscreen-based devices.

Andre Marcelo-Tanner, this is probably the 1st generation BlackBerry Storm. RIM is set to come out with a 2nd generation which will have WiFi.

Weird that they decided to manufacture a phone with a screen size this big, but with no WiFi capabilities.

jojo,

You can get non-warrantied BlackBerry units if you’re planning to use prepaid.

However, that completely defeats the purpose of BlackBerry’s push e-mail feature since you won’t be able to use it.

I would highly suggest looking into other QWERTY phones if you’re not going to use BlackBerry-exclusive features.

so Verizon in the US had this with NO WIFI, does the one released here have Wifi?

cause if not you’re better off with any other phone with Wifi, or a BlackBerry Bold 9000.

boss , where can one get for prepaid ?

Could this give the iPhone serious competition here in the Philippines?

Will only get a BlackBerry again if they have a service that has an flat-rate UNLIMITED data plan. 5MB plan? 8MB plan? What is this, 1999?

it sounds so business-y hehe
