At 13 you don't need this type of phone. Even I, at almost 17, don't need this type of phone.
It's nice when you need it for business and such, but it's not really meant for someone who isn't using it for business purposes.
I think they're neat, but they are also complicated and if you don't know what you're doing you can really mess it up.
I'd say if you want something cute then go buy yourself a vibrantly colored razor phone or if you want to spend a lot of money and you have it to spend, check out an iphone. I wouldn't get one though, the battery only lasts about 4 hours (my friends step-dad has one). [ S_C's advice column | Ask S_C A Question ]
Sima answered Saturday August 25 2007, 4:42 pm: The Blackberry is a work/business phone. If you are going to buy it just because it looks cool and you want to text, then this phone is not for you. Not only are they expensive, but they are expensive for a reason. Blackberries are for people who work in offices, or own their own companies, and are really busy. A Blackberry is a PDA/Smart Phone, meaning that you can access the internet on, and save notes. If you are just looking for a new phone, that is cute and you want to text and stuff, think about getting a Razor, or another phone. [ Sima's advice column | Ask Sima A Question ]
