Well - firstly the Blackbird is the Caldari Electronic Warfare Cruiser - so you would need quite a few skills trained to use it - not to mention have spaceship command to level 3 and Caldalri Frigate to level 4
As far as your next step in a Frigate is concerned it depends what u want to do. If you are looking for a bit of PvP action train up your missle skills and get yourself a Kestrel. A Merlin is also a good allround frigate too.
Edited as I forgot to mention - the price for a Blackbird is around 3 mil isk on the market from memory. Plus the cruiser skill u would need is about 500k isk

Hi,
Well the Blackbird is a cruiser and will cost u more like 3mill to get so i dont think that is a good choice. U want to go for a caldari frigate to start with, if u go here www.eve-i.com, u can find a great ship database to look at.
What do u want to do in the ship as well, because that will influence the choice as well, cos the kestrel is a great fighting ship but cant fitt mining lasers, where as the imicus is a great figate for mining.
I would go into .5 when u have good gunnery skills as the rats in the belts will be quite hard in a frig, or wait till u have ur cruiser and some heavy drones then u will be very safe in .5.
Hope that helped

The game is not complicated, it just takes time and patience, and with the time you'll gain the knowledge. You need to walk before you can run.
I thought along the same lines when I started, but you'll be amazed how quickly you pick things up.
Feel free to contact me in game for any help or advise.

Until i got my shiny new Cruiser (yesterday.. yay) i was using a Bantam with two mining lasers and two mining droids for mining.
For combat i went for a Merlin as for a while i had a lack of Missile skills. If you can use rockets and missiles go for the Kestral for combat, if you are more skilled with guns, go for a merlin.
PS Bantam is Frigate lvl2, others are lvl3
