Robbed, need new phone

[Avanarius]

I know they were black because they held a gun in my face? Who the fuck are you? Moron.

Not many people know what this is like until it actually happens to you, so fuck anyone else who comments on this.

How does Google maps serve as free GPS on the Curve? Do tell!

P.S. Tyche, my Mirage G4 is coming in a week!

Also, how much does an unlimited blackberry data plan tend to run?

I think the Verizon curve has a built in GPS device (even if it doesn't, google maps can work off of triangulation i think). You can download google maps for the blackberry and it'll pinpoint your exact location within like 10 feet. You can input directions and get them on-the-fly as you travel. Only downside is that it doesn't talk to you, so you have to look at it. It's gotten me around St. Louis and Nashville pretty reliably. My BB unlimited plan is $30 a month through AT&T. I'm guessing Verizon will be comparable. Grats on your container, I've been training for some half marathons and a marathon so I've had next to no time this summer.

Edit: I got held up walking out of a gas station once. A friend of mine seen it and drove into him at about 15 mph in a ford focus. I jumped in and called the police. 15 minutes later the dumbass was still at the gas station when the cops rolled up...and yes, he was black.

If you're with Verizon and can handle touch screen phones, I suggest looking into the Blackberry Storm. It's due to be released sometime next month and it looks promising. If you require a physical button Qwerty keyboard get the Blackberry Curve.

[genjizero]

So how do you know he was black?

Did you sit there and watch him take your stuff and not do anything? Grow a pair.

If not, then you're just jumping to conclusions. Racist.

Get off Verizon and switch to T-Mobile, they both suck equally but T-Mobile has the G1.

i guess not everyone knows the difference between robbery and burglary

[Charla]

Maybe it would be easier to call it a mugging.

Blackberry curve

Blackberry Storm (not yet released)

LG Voyager

HTC Touch Pro (not yet released?)


If I were to buy a new phone from verizon, these would be the 4 i'd look at.

With all the slight differences in connotation between burglary, armed burglary, robbery, armed robbery, mugging, armed muggery, theft, armed theft, larceny, armed larceny, stealing and armed stealing, we should just call it "some (insert race or religion here) took my shit."

[Koyangi]

Blackjack is at&t, I've heard good things on the new LG touch phone, and Samsung glide, I currently use a Voyager and like it a lot.

I'll just go off what police dictate things as....

Robbery
Armed Robbery
Larceny
Larceny Over $250

Thats about it... pretty much every type of incident in which a victim loses items to another person can be classified under one of these 4 things. In this case, because a firearm was directly shown...its Armed Robbery, Felony offense.

[Furtwangler]

I have a voyager, and I like it. Screen is responsive and has one of the larger qwerty keyboards. It has the Verizon navigator and web browser etc.

[ZhanAsura]

It was just $40 and a phone that didn't cost me more than 50 bucks...wasn't worth chancing that Mr. Ghetto Fabulous had bullets in the chamber and a trigger finger.

Smart man.

[burrito]

Just avoid the HTC/Tilt or whatever. I'm about to return mine from a shitty 9 hour battery life--- from leaving it idle, talking for 2? minutes, and playing about 15 min worth of Solitaire on it.

Maybe I just got worked and got a crap phone, but 9 hours is pitiful.

[Cheerios]

I know they were black because they held a gun in my face? Who the fuck are you? Moron.

That guy ain't comin back to this thread.

[Denchi]

BB Curve. Simple, great keyboard, great internet once you download the Opera browser, and free GPS with an unlimited blackberry data plan (Google maps ftw).

Yeah my mom bought me one of these at a garage sale this summer. Great little phone.

[Odon]

did you call the cops, your phone has a GPS in it, they can track it and arrest them if they were stupid enough to turn it on at any point.

Made a report, spoke with an officer.

"So I was robbed last night and need a new phone."

Hardly sounds like you were held at gunpoint, I'm sure you would've remembered to include that in your OP had it really happened. You don't get robbed at gunpoint in a Country Club in SLO.

Lots of noisy parties, not a lot of armed robberies. Maybe someone stole your phone at a party where you were too out of it to remember where your phone was.

No but really, I don't care if you defend your little story to the grave, just get a G1 and be done with it, shit's bawler.

[Rhinox]

He could've been robbed with a fucking butter knife who the fuck cares. doesn't make your comment about growing a pair any less retarded.

I think you missed the point which is, he wasn't robbed he had his phone stolen by someone. The odds of one of the 2% population who are African-American in SLO holding him at gunpoint and taking his phone are laughable, especially considering where in SLO he lives.

you are retarded

I thought TSM went to UCBerk?
If it was in Berk, where was it? D: I'm there really often and don't wanna get a gun pulled on me
