Chil got me this as an early birthday gift especially since my BB Curve 8520′s keypad was already as useful as a pile of poop.

I am so loved.

I originally planned to get a Bold 9780 but after hearing so many horror stories about the keypad stuttering/double-tapping, I chose to stick to the older Bold which had much less hardware issues, if there are even any. I gave up 512MB RAM, 5MP camera and OS6 but I think it’s better than the frustration over the keypad.

I tried installing OS6 on the 9700 but the memory leak was just so bad that I chose to revert back to OS5.
