I can’t stand the BlackBerry web browser.
I have a Bold for work and earlier this week almost tossed it into traffic because of it’s painfully shitty web browser.
Why in the name of Bruce would I need to go to the BlackBerry search page just to get to the Google search page?! And the f*cking zoom/pan/click process is criminally frustrating.
The help files tell you to simply ‘change the Home Page Address Field’ – easier said than done when you can’t edit the Home Page Address Field.
Sorry, BB, you’ve got a lock on mobile business tools but for the love of my Keurig, do SOMETHING about your browser!
If you’re looking for a great way to drive up your blood pressure and need another fist-sized hole in your wall do one of two things:
- Sign up for a web-hosting account with GoDaddy;
- Launch the web browser on your Bold and find out when the 1:47 train from Union arrives at Oakville.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

So you are telling me to wait for the iphone?
Hey Beth,
It’s a toss up – depends on what you’re using the phone for. If you’re going to surf the web and play games, go iPhone. If you’re using it for email and phone exclusively, go BB.
iPhone is cooler, but BB is way more biz-oriented.
