Yeah, I've been posting Android fanboy **** for a while now. LOL
No LTE on 9900 either. It supports HSPA+ but does not have an LTE radio. Only some Androids and Windows Phones currently support LTE on AT&T's network.Yeah I noticed that, only the 9900 gets HSPA/LTE boost.

:what: uhh.....there are plenty of paid apps on BBOS. Haven't you seen the video of the $500 clock widget CrackBerry Kevin bought? But as far as what I bought on BBOS, I bought MeterBerry, BerryWeather (most accurate weather app I've ever used), QuickLaunch, Tapatalk, and I think that's it but it totals around $20-30, I forgot how much MeterBerry costs.
And the only reason iPhone wins in case cost over the BlackBerry is because of the Book Book, Otterbox Defender, BoxWave Keyboard Buddy and LifeProof cases. Otherwise I think BlackBerry would win that one too. I even changed the housing on the 9700 I had.
I think the only things keeping from outright choosing BB right now are the screen size, media capabilities/wifi hotspot (I have a Kindle Fire but it's not always the best option), and the fact that this one I have gets crape signal in my house. But I attribute that to Verizon not putting a 4G SIM in it. Verizon is the only carrier I know of that says the 9900/30 isn't 4G, maybe not full 4G, but it will still get a speed boost and signal boost from pulling off the 4G towers as well.

How is Accuweather for the iPhone? http://www.accuweather.com/iphone.aspCalm down. Don't get your knickers in a knot.
My point was there aren't many paid BB apps as there are iOS because there are very few who develop for BBOS anymore. I do miss BeWeather. I've yet to find an iOS app that I like as much as I did BeWeather.
As to why anyone would spend $500 on a widget is beyond me, but whatever blows his dress up. $500 to me is a mortgage payment.

I like the Windows Phone version of Accuweather better than BerryWeather for BlackBerry?

I like it. It works well, but the one thing I miss about BeWeather was just having the widget on the home screen and being able to change WPs. With themes, you're stuck with whatever WP the developer wants unless you SSH your phone and change it that way and I'm too lazy to do it.
So Laura, if i understand what your saying here correctly - your 4S is jb'en BUT you can't use what ever wp you want It only allows you what the dev created the theme with unless you do that SSH step?
I've very surprised by that because people jb their iPhones to have all sorts of customization, but they take changing wp's away within a theme?
i don't understand that one.
Yep. You can change the WP by SSHing, but I'm just too lazy to do it. I generally only download themes or widgets that have backgrounds I can live with. SSHing to change the weather location is bad enough.
If VZW is your carrier, the SIM means nothing. You could take it out completely and still use VZW's network (which is CDMA, not LTE). The 9930 and the iPhone are both CDMA devices on VZW. Only some of the Android devices are LTE at this time.
The SIM in any VZW "world phone" (dual CDMA/GSM) is for international roaming, not for use on VZW's network. The reason for that is most overseas carriers do not have CDMA networks, so a VZW phone without a GSM SIM would be a paperweight in Europe.
Calm down. Don't get your knickers in a knot.

I wouldn't go with an iPhone. Apple copied EVERYTHING from Android. Android was the first cell phone ever and Apple copied everything that Android has, even the phone keypad, which Android created. Also, Android was the first to have a map. Nobody ever had a map before Android, nobody. People were constantly lost until Android gave them the ability to find their way. And because Android was the first to have a weather widget, nobody knew what the weather was like outside before Android.
We are talking CrackBerryKevin here. He's not like most folks. . Right now while waiting for BB10 to be released he is on a tour of the platforms and Mobile National sites. Currently he's on Android and Android Central and he wrote a blog about a 200 Google Play app he bought

Ironically the app has a picture of an iphone on it!
So he spent $700 on two apps? That's a mortgage payment and just over half of my truck note.
Darn this being an adult thing and having a desire for a roof over my head, running water and to not eat cat food. I can't even bring myself to pay more than a couple dollars for an app.
I'd spend that much on a phone if it was one that I really wanted and I knew it would meet my needs, but definitely not a app.So he spent $700 on two apps?
