Do not upgrade your BackBerry

Do not upgrade your BackBerry

Yesterday, I perform the upgrade of my BlackBerry firmware 4.7 to 5.0. During the upgrade, it lost the connection to the host computer and failed to boot up. After struggling for a while, it came back and the upgrade was done.

But when I started the BB, it lost all data plan including Browser and email. I had to call Verizon to get a technical support. I run *288 option 2 and do the hardware reset by taking the battery out. It was a lot of work and as far as I see there in nothing new. Besides, I lost the ability to view Japanese on the web and email.

What kind of upgrade is this?

If you have BB, do not upgrade to 5.0. If you are thinking of buying BB, iPhone or Android will be a better phone. Sorry RIM (Research in Motion), BB sucks.
