The Treo would be a really nice device if they ever get it to operate as advertised. In the past month I have probably wasted at least ten hours trying to keep my 650 operating and frankly I am no longer amused.
I am apprehensive simply because BB is all new to me and I will have to spend some time learning about the way it operates, what it can and can't do, what is available to supplement the built-in features and such.
I will probably post some really stupid questions, but that is how one learns, no?
I sure wish these boards were more active as I have been a member at EverythingTreo for awhile and have gotten used to the daily activity over there.

Wow, Steve...did not expect you to make the jump. I find the BlackBerry to be much different than the Treo. Similar to Windows Mobile, there are a lot of menus to navigate. As many have noted, email on the BlackBerry is pure joy. It really excels at push email and "it just works" which is great. I also think RIM has done a great job from a hardware perspective. The devices are sleek, well-made and good looking. I have a BlackBerry Curve and frankly was surprised at how much I enjoyed it.
As for the forums, EverythingBerry was late to the game, so unfortunately the forums do not have near the activity as ET. I'll certainly keep plugging away and hopefully that will change.
In any event, welcome aboard your second "everything" site.
