Is a Blackberry right for me?

I'm switching to Verizon, and I was wondering if any of the Blackberry phones are good for non-business. Also, are any of them good for texting?

All Blackberry's are great for texting! BBM (Black Berry Messenger) is a huge feature and reason people enjoy blackberry. Besides that, they are perfectly fine for non business users. Many of my friends have them. They are stylish, look cool, come in great colors, and have many features that you will enjoy. It has an app store, games, texting, Facebook, photos, everything you will want. It is a great phone for any user. They just happen to bring forward great business features, but they are perfectly capable if you don't want to use it for that purpose.

Features in BlackBerry Messenger:
