Blackberry , Need Advise   Message List

Re: [palmx] Blackberry , Need Advise

My BB LCD screen got busted last week due to a fall, and I now feel a bit
lost. Susah sikit nak buat keje as my push email tak senang dapat ..normally
emails from the boss quite lengthy..email can only be read at work or at
home..databank of addresses and contact numbers also gone..kena refer to
contacts on Outlook..browsing FB and gmail accounts pun susah sikit etc.
Generally I miss my BB. Sent fo rrepairs which will cost about RM600.00

My two cents
