My primary phone is a Torch 9800. I wanted an e-mail processing device with a real keyboard and decent browser. This is my third blackberry and I wonder why I persist with the bugs.

In Canada the phone cost about the same as an iPhone. The build quality is dreadful.. silver plastic bezel is peeling. The software is buggy and glitchy (I get a dialog with a java.lang.NullPointerException sometimes when I receive an SMS.. wtf!?).

My last blackberry also had a ton of bugs and glitchy UI behaviour.

I think the problem with RIM is when it comes to software implementation, they just aren't as good as their competitors.
