BB is awesome just keep in mind the excellent BB service we're getting from MTN and Vodacom... and what about HTC Hero is that in your price range?

BlackBerry Bold 9000. Or wait for the 9700. I got rid of my Omnia after two months (couldn't stand it) and have never looked back. BlackBerry <3

No contest imo, get the blackberry they're awesome phones!

You have started well by asking, however research well, check the BlackBerry threads to determined which Service Provider can provide the best reliable service.

This is crucial because a BlackBerry handset is nothing without the BIS/BES.

Have to suggest the Bold 9700 which is going to be hitting the shelves from mid November, early December.

Why, the Omnia is getting long in the tooth and based on WinMo.

You may feel a bit miffed after signing a two year contract on a Bold 9000 only to find the replacement model appearing two weeks later.

Have a look at the new Samsung i8910 (Omnia HD) if you want to go with Omnia

And go with MTN. Vodacraps bis service is just that.

Bold 9700 or Storm 2 both should available on MTN next month.

Does MTN offer PAYG Blackberry? I'd love to try them out but not for 24 months. Vodacom's current problems could just as easily be suffered by MTN users down the road.
