New BlackBerry Bold 9900

I quite like the BlackBerry phones and as I'm approaching the end of my Orange contract and have been doing a bit of research, I've found that the new BlackBerry Bold 9900 is available soon. It's an improvement over the existing Bold but the screen is now touch-sensitive, creating a touch-screen phone with a full keyboard as well.

I've watched a few reviews on YouTube and they all seem extremely positive, but I'd like to illicit a few opinions here before I make a final decision. :)

Any pros or cons that I may not be aware of?

    personally speaking I dont like first versions of software, i have had enough to be put off, luckilly though these days smartphones are easy to update and can be done at home with a little know-how

    my friend has a 9900 which he got on launchday and loves it
    Who remembers when X Factor was just Roman suncream?

    Hi all,

    I'm due for a new contract and will appreciate some help please.

    I'll like the BB9900 and I'm hoping to get at least 900min, 500 text 500mb, bb for about £30 for 18 or 24months on 3 ( three network ), Tmobile or Orange.
    I've found one on 3 for £40 for bout 2000mins, 3000 text etc. I'll like to pay less. I'll also appreciate websites that I can use to get a deal, cashback etc.

    Thank you in advance for your assistance.
