smart computer use?

I would think so.

I think about the stuff that I actually use my Blackberry for. I have a Blackberry Curve. I’ve only been using it for a couple of months but I find it to be very useful. I feel that it keeps me connected to my communications easily enough that I need to spend less time in front of a computer. That is a good thing, I think.

So, can I consider my Blackberry Curve to be the same type of device as my computer?

I think I can justify that.

Similarities

I can check my email on my computers… and on the Blackberry. Gmail is easy to access with my computers and I can also use the Gmail app on my Blackberry to check/send email that way too.

I can hop on the internet and read news or my RSS feeds… with both my computer and my Blackberry.

I can use Yahoo instant messenger on both a computer an on the Blackberry.

I can upload photos to Flickr from both devices. This is clumsy on the Blackberry though, but it does work.

Differences

I can’t play Unreal Tournament GOTY edition on my phone, but I can play Tetris clones on the Blackberry. Gaming is on both, but on different levels entirely.

I can’t take picture with my computer, I have to take pictures with another device plugged into my computer and it’s awkward at best. I can take pictures with the Blackberry directly.

I can’t put my computer in my front shirt pocket, I can do that with blackberry.

It’s hard to blog on the Blackberry. Typing with the QWERTY keyboard is decent, but I can’t rattle out the text characters nearly as fast as I can on a computer keyboard.

Anyways… that’s all I got for now.

I just got a Blackberry Curve a couple of months ago. This thing was sold to me as the hottest Blackerry smartphone on the market. I guess they were wrong.

Unleash the Blackberry Bold smartphone.

Booooooo. (from a collective crowd)

I guess it doesn’t look much different than my Blackberry Curve phone, except for the fact that it is more Bold. I’d like to try it out and see if it is much different. I guess if a person could take advantage of the new networking capabilities it could be useful.
