but in android, your other email accounts like yahoo,hotmail,etc. don't get pushed abruptly like that of gmail.. but in BB, all your email accounts' mails get pushed into your BB right away, without delays..
BB is still the best at it..

Lets clarify some points.

1) I actually own several Rim BB devices including the Bold 9700, I've posted GPS shots from my bold in this forum before.

2) I was using that Palm IIIc in that photo because it was the first palm with a color screen. I said that above.

3) When comparing smartphone market share, it is usually done using operating system... for example android, versus Apple's OS on iphone, their touch mp3 player, and ipad, finally blackberry os. This is why many people get angry when Apple claims to have such high smartphone market share, it is false, they are including 3 devices which run a similar OS.

4) One last clarification, since you seem to be able to only skim and not read in detail, go back up to post number 14, where you replied to me, look in the body of my original text, concerning Palm I said "Sure they are still in business but really, they are practically dead"
So no need for you to give me palms web addy, I've already acknowledged Palm is still in dismal existence prior to your weblink.
Next time you want to prove your point, re-read everything.

Final food for thought, when you first started posting on this forum I had never had interactions with you, until you basically said in one of the threads that I don't know what I'm talking about when it comes to batteries. I might have made a mistake using the verbage battery "surge" but your reply was rude to say the least. That was my first interaction with you.

So yes, you do rub me the wrong way at times, and I really don't have respect for people who put a price tag on life and healthcare. Heck, if it was up to me, I'd implement healthcare for pets, It breaks my heart to see an animal sick and or in pain. I don't mind paying my fair share of taxes, and the more I make in life, the more I should pay, so that essential programs like healthcare can be funded for those who are less fortunate.

I get it, you're taking difference of opinion on national healthcare into consideration here then. And if I seemed more blunt in the batteries post as well as here, the one thing that -I- can't stand is false information being given to other's to follow. If you visit crackberry, or sevenforums, or a plethora of others that I'm part of/own, you'd see that I'm one of the most helpful people around. But when somebody posts false information, even if it worked for them personally, that's when I step in to let others know both sides (mine is usually the technical side).

If you want to base your interractions with me on the basis that I don't feel our country can currently afford free national healthcare, then there's nothing that I can say to you. Your mind is made up.

NO forget healthcare, this is about RIM going out of business. I say yes, you say NO. I show how similar the two companies are, you say "visit palm.com"..........as if I had not already stated myself the company is in business.

Also, it wasn't like I was telling people something sooooo horribly false about the battery, I used the wrong word, I used surge, big freaking deal. You could have approached it in a different manner, instead of basically saying I don't know what the heck I'm talking about.
People make mistakes, I made a mistake in my verbage, calling it a surge, and you made a mistake when you read my post and totally didn't realize I had already stated palm is currently in business, so you direct me to their website, as some sort of "gotcha."

Okay lets just agree to disagree. You think RIM will be around for all of eternity, I think they will be gone within 10 years.

Let's let bygone's be bygone's. We're both active in online communities, and are both passionate about our electronics. No reason we can't get along while doing that :cool: If I offended you in any way in my posts, please accept my apology, as that is not my intention. I'm a homebrewer, and if I could give you one of my 22oz'ers to bury the hatchet, I would...but I think that would be too far of a drive :D. So here's an e-beer!

yup that works.. but then you have to go all this trouble to set your emails up , but with BB, you dont need to do all this hoorah! LOL ,you dont need to set up an exchange or anything like that.. just simply set up your email acoounts be it yahoo, hotmail, etc.. even gmail now works just fine..

.. in android, the native email app is just not as convenient compared to BB's email.. and it's a fact! and not everyone is too familiar with the settings to get quick push syncs to their android phones.. see BB is more convenient and easier to use.. IMO,

but hey i love android.. LOL

No trouble, gmail checking yahoo through pop3 takes about 5 mins to set up. :p
