It’s fun blogging once in a while.

BB-coma.

November 4, 2009 Bull

It’s been 4 days since I got my BB and now I’m thinking of bringing it back to Globe and refund my Php14k este Php15k back. :| I tried to mobile surf last night using Globe’s TIME browsing (Php5/15 mins.) Ok naman siya, site titles load but for the web… blah. Goodluck if mag load. I decided to just switch to KB browsing as recommended for BB users.

I also tried downloading recommended apps online such as Google, Facebook, etc. and it won’t download probably because my BIS isn’t active or sabaw lang talaga ang IE. Twitterberry and Google Maps were the only ones I’ve successfully downloaded on my BB. Twitterberry works, and the Google Map? I don’t know, another error.

Someone help me with BIS, I’m semi-clueless about it, BB newbie remember? :roll: All I know is that you can’t enjoy BB if you don’t have a line… and that’s about it. Just get a line and the BB-coma will be over.

Are there any other options? :lol: I’m planning to do the following:


The cheapest I can afford with my allowance. This plan is stupid, 500 free texts? Are you kidding me? I can send 500 SMS to friends today using UNLITEXT20.


Of course I’ll probably get the the Php700 plan. I really don’t need to connect 24/7 since I’m always near my laptop if I wanted to go online. Besides, there are lotsa hotspots now around the metro, I can just surf using my wifi.

OR if I’m just so addicted to surfing the net through my BB, I should probably get this:

UPDATED 9:18PM – Ditch the personal blackberry plan. Globe doesn’t offer it anymore. Looks like minimum wage earners like me are stuck with the poster below… :|


NOT. No. No worries? :roll: I don’t think so. Di kaya ng budget.

I’m really ready to give up my BB, until I read domeng’s blog comment on mukamo:


Domeng, if you can read this, email me ASAP at iloverainb0ws[@]yahooDOTcom. Thank you!

One last reason why I don’t want to get a Globe line. Their signal sucks big time! Lalo na in our place here in Taguig. Mas ok pa signal ng Sun ngayon, promise. Speaking of Sun, can’t wait for Sun Cellular to offer their BIS. Sana lahat ng tao may BB para magmura na yung services. :lol:

    Hi, by now, how’s your BB experience? I’ve been eying BB Curve 8520 but I’m also on prepaid. Your BB-coma intrigues me. hehehe.

    Stick to your prepaid! :( Kakainis kasi I got a line pa just to use my BB. Sabay nagkaroon na ng prepaid BIS. Asar talaga.

    Anyways, as of the moment I’m loving my bb. :) HEhehe. 2 months ago pa kasi itong post ko, ok na ako. ;)

    Alam ko you need to have your BIS activated. If di naka activate yun, you can’t access most apps/set up email.
