Berry Nice

I opened the paper bag and peered in. I saw the box. Not too big. Not too small. Classy, all black, with silver words looking back at me. There the words were.

BlackBerry.

I smiled with satisfaction and carefully pulled the box out. Rubbing my hands together, I opened it and very quickly but gently unloaded all the contents onto my bed. Placing each accessory neatly one after another in an organized row. Now all that stood between me and my upgrade was the egg carton that held it in place. I lifted it off swiftly and there she was. The upgrade I've been anticipating for weeks.

I picked it up with one hand, still holding old faithful in the other. The expression of disappointment fell over my face. Why was it so light? I mimicked a small weighing motion, old faithful in one hand, the upgrade in the other. It felt nothing like a Berry.

Ahhh. Maybe after the battery goes in, it'll feel more real. I hurriedly unwrapped the battery and popped it in. The difference was little if there was any at all.

I put it in to charge and finally after waiting 12 hours, I start fiddling with it.

The whole interface blows my mind. The functions are more or less the same, with the exception of the fact that the track-ball was much more fun compared to the track-pad, and yet there's just something different about this new experience.

I'm sold...

Yes, I know this phone isn't very new, but forgive me. I'm not very up to date when it comes to the latest gadgets and what not. It really is a new experience for me.
