lol.
Here is my reasons.....PERSONAL OPINION.
- Im "over" my X...its just too big.
- I REALLY miss a keyboard. There is so much lag with the on screen keyboard.
- Its huge and I can never put my X in my pocket. lol
- BB's hardware seems to be great. Most bbs last a very long time...from what ive seen.
- I DO NOT want a 4G device....I wont have 4G in my area for like 2 more years. lol

Still though, why?!
Sucks about 4G. I would have went for a Droid 3 personally but that's just me.

I was overreacting really, still sad to see an Android user go. Just of curiousity, if you wanted a keyboard, what didn't you like about the Droid 3? I hate "blackberry" keyboards, and my X is fine in my hands. I also have very big hands so I can easily understand your qualms. I believe every user has a right to a choice.

haha. yea. Im a small (kid). Im 5'11 135lbs....19 in college. lol
Not a huge guy.
The X has been a AMAZING phone.
But with customization (roms, etc)....I find bugs. Which is understandable. I would never run android stock, but when I run it rooted I have issues. IDK.
I was VERY interested in the D3, but I did not like the sliding keyboard....it was difficult to get out and it is *currently" un-exploiatable
lolIt was a VERY hard choice to make....
At the end of the day...I need something that just works for me...
I also LOVE BB speakerphone...lol
I dont think ill be gone for long
Prob come back to android when I get "bored" with BB. lol
Yall are a great group and I really apprecaite everything

Might be too late now, but did you look at the Droid Pro? Very BB like in size and appearance. My wife wanted a keyboard, but not a slider, and I was NOT going to do with a BB. Seems pretty reliable, but it does have a few bugs. Haven't rooted it, since she mainly uses it for email and facebook. Love my X, but way too much phone for her.

I did look at it. A friend of mine has one and I played with there's and did some online research and it appear to have a good bit of bugs/not a lot updates. The bb just so sexy looking. Lol I'm not gonna use the bb til I get a case

My new bold is having some keypad problems. The buttons to the left of thr teackpad are very hard to push. Other than that I love it. Def a happy customer. A replacement is being sent and should be here by wednesday. It that one has no hardware issues I will be very happy with my decision
