Their simply unlimited plan is a great deal because for $99 you also receive a free BIS Blackberry account plus unlimited text messaging. The stories in the discussion forums where too similar for this just to have been one or two bad devices. Several people reported swapping two or three 8830s and having the same signal dropping experiences. A lot of my clients are sporting the Verizon 8830s. I'm going to check with one of them tomorrow when I'm on-site with them to see if they've experienced this issue. For now I'm sticking with my T-Mobile Blackberry 8320.

I was torn between getting the 8830 and the Moto Q9m a few months ago, and decided in the end to go with the Q9. I am kind of glad that I did, if this is true. Wow.
