Pros: Email, always! ALL OUTLOOK FUNCTIONS Cons: A bit pricey... but worth it!
I got yelled at last week for paying more attention to my Blackberry than my girlfriend! I wrote a memo to myself using the little thumb-activated keyboard (I am up to about 30 words per minute now, no nintendo-thumb either) TASK - Get rid of jealous...
I've heard for the past year or so that the RIM Blackberry is just awesome! I'm a gadget nut, but I've been hesitant to adopt for some reason. I use a Palm Vx for my PDA and use a notebook for my email....
Pros: Beware cell phone & pager CO's ! RIM has set a new standard for communications. Cons: PRICE...Shop around, $300+ or $99.95 !?
RIM has made Instant messaging so simple with the blackberry and the mobile communicator. Cell phones are simply too difficult to work the keyboards. Both work off of cell phone signals so beware of your service area and plan ahead! The bad news is the...
Pros: Too Many to list Cons: Price of service is high
The Research in Motion Blackberry 950 is a first rate device. It's design is extremely well thought out it's construction is rugged. The device is very intuitive to use and really doesn’t require any reading of the manual if it is pre-activated for you....
Pros: Great screen, always email. Cons: No WAP, PQA support (yet)
Having had the 950 for a while, I was looking forward to the 957 upgrade. I was not disappointed in any way. The 957 is thin, light, and has a marvelous screen. (It is better than palm, because it does not need to be pen-activated among other...
Pros: A Convenient, Easy to Use way to get/send emails anywhere! Cons: Addictive
It looks like a pager, although, it is as much like a pager as it is like a toaster. What does it do that makes it an essential item for more and more, well the short version is
- it is integrated with Outlook so that users can send and...
Pros: Small, Easy to Use, Email Access Without a Modem Cons: Service Area Has Dead Spots, Particularly in Big Buildings, Pricey When Figuring in the Monthly Access Fee
Getting a little tired of trying PDAs on my own I wasn’t too excited when my employer placed a box on my desk and asked me in a note to try this. I honestly had never heard of BlackBerry. While it has some things in common with my Palm IIIxe, it is more...
Pros: Send/Receive mail from my corporate account, always connected, flat fee per month, helps my productivity Cons: Limited 3rd party apps, can't search on calendar items, keyboard not backlit
I've owned several 'PDA's (Casio data bank, Newton, Marco, Magic Cap, Handheld PC, WinCE, Rex, Palm I, Palm III, Palm V, PalmPC) that were supposed to help me be more organized, change my life, etc. - well they all fell well short on these lofty goals...
Pros: Small, lightweight, e-mail comes to you. Cons: The smaller model is hard to read. I chose the 957 with the larger screen.
The problems experienced by the writer who said he didn't like his Blackberry and returned it after two weeks was not having problems with the Blackberry itself, but with the Bellsouth Internet Service Provider.
Pros: Always "On" Always "Connected" Cons: Two to choose from
Palm and others need to wake up, be creative and not just try and mimick the way we view the internet on a desktop.
This has to be the best all round unit I've purchased to date. I've had a Palm V and Palm M100, these units do everything but allow...
Pros: Email everywhere, comfortable keyboard despite its size, deceptively useful, easy to get addicted. Cons: Pricey per month ($50)
I'm a real-life dilbert.
I'm a technical engineer for a large IT department. I have 3 devices strapped to my belt (well, almost. I put 2 of them in my pockets. I don't find it 'chic' to show you're a geek). I do my best to...
Pros: Send/receive email from anywhere, syncs to everything in MS Outlook, fun to use Cons: Pricey, a little bulky even it if needs to be
If you rely on Microsoft Outlook and all of its features at home or work and if your productivity depends on responding to your emails on a timely basis and staying on top of your to-do list and knowing what's on your calendar, you should consider a...
Pros: Small, always on, always connected. Cons: Too small to surf. Use a color pocket PC instead.
I recently read an opinion on the Blackberry stating that attachments could not be read, or attachments could not be forwarded. I do believe that in all fairness this is really not accurate. You can use Itrezzo.com to open attachments, send to fax...
Pros: Easy to use, Nice keyboard Cons: Does not run PalmOS
The RIM Blackberry is the best for wireless email. The unit is easy to use and understand. The keyboard is very functional and I am able to type about 40 wpm on it. The Blackberry has autotext feature that allows you to use a type of macro to type...
