Continued poking at the whole Crackberry thing. Learned the “standard” model we get (the 8700 — most likely I’d be getting the 8700c to minimize disruption in service).<\/p>\n
Pretty much most of the stuff I have on my Treo is available on this guy, and the stuff that isn’t isn’t all that important. Except …<\/p>\n
… no camera.<\/p>\n
It seems odd that, having once pooh-poohed having a cell phone camera and not having had one until I got the Treo, I find that prospect so daunting. But it is so freaking convenient to be able to snap some sort of picture nearly anywhere I go that the thought of losing that capability is … really, deeply irksome.<\/p>\n
I need to find out how rock-solid the “standard” is — either the Blackberry 8100 Pearl or 8300 Curve have cameras, and I’m willing to live with a bit of other inconvenience if they’ll support my Exchange stuff (which it appears they do).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
