Whats the point of having a BB if you don't want to use Blackberry Messaging. Its more like a regular android/ iOS device with an expensive data plan.

dont buy a blackberry unless you need BBM.. get e5 or e6.. they too have same nice keyboard! but still BB's are the king when it comes to BBM and enterprise mailing!
