Anybody else got a blackberry and starting to despise RIM? I have a blackberry bold 9700 and I am really starting to give up with the repeated software installations, repairs, fixes, internet stoppages, unreliability. Messenger is great on it, as is the keyboard (for email usage) - the only 2 reasons I still have one and not an iPhone.

I could never get mine to sync with my laptop. Having said that, I still can't with my HTC Desire. Probably something to do with Vista. -
