So I’ve done it. I’ve listed my former BlackBerry, the 8100 Pearl on eBay. Because I am still iffy on buying an iPhone, I have decided not to invest actual money into it, but to sell my old Blackberry on eBay in hopes to sell it for the amount of an iPhone so that if it doesn’t work out between the iPhone and I, then at least I haven’t lost anything.

As you should know by now, a previous entry has gone through the contemplations of jumping on the iPhone bandwagon and giving up my wonderful Blackberry. Well, why not have both? This is my way of giving the iPhone a trial while keeping my Blackberry as a backup. The only thing I need to do is change my data plan and put my SIM card into whichever phone. It’s quite simple.

Should I do it? Should I go to the Mac side and get an iPhone? Let me know!

By the way, if you’re possibly interested in buying my Blackberry Pearl, let me know and I will send you the link to my eBay auction or do some under the table business with you!

When the original iPhone came out in June of 2007 I happened to work for AT&T on iDay and was very pregnant, mind you. I thought the iPhone was great, but with being an “insider” with the company I just knew it wasn’t worth the money since it wasn’t a 3G device. From the time I heard of the iPhone I always said, “I’m not going to get it until it goes 3G.”. Well, now it’s 3G and over the last year I have gotten more than comfortable and loyal to Blackberry and now that I’ve had all that time to fall head over heels first for my Pearl and now my Curve, they now decide to release a much better iPhone… that’s 3G.

Of course! So now I have been going back and forth between wanting an iPhone and trying to be loyal to my BlackBerry. The only thing really keeping me from wanting the iPhone seems to be a huge thing. I don’t particularly like touchscreen and that is what the iPhone is. Not just partly, but completely touchscreen.

So, as of a few days ago, I think I have decided to go to the Mac side. I could always just buy it, use it, and if I don’t like it, pay the restocking fee associated with returning it.

I’ll keep you updated on my internal debate.
