  • Me And My Blackberry - Size DOES (finally) Matter

    Nov 18 '04
    Pros: No more lugging around my laptop (at least for short-term gigs).
    Cons: More wireless please.....

    Summary: Hi. Remember me? I've been busy. Preoccupied. But most importantly I have a new toy. It's one of the best perks about working in the corporate world. New toys. Now I understand why men get giddy about these things and if you were to ask them ... read more

  • Not what I expected

    Mar 20 '08
    Pros: lots of options, durable
    Cons: low reception, numbers on keypad somewhat hard to find

    Summary: I bought two blackberrys about a year ago. I paid about $150 for both phones on eBay. The phone came with two cords. One was to connect to a computer, and the other was for the charger. The charger has different travel charger adapters for charging ... read more

  • Great Email Device; Not A Great Phone

    Jul 28 '05
    Pros: email capabilities; large, clear color screen; very long battery life; keyboard; easy PDA functions
    Cons: Bulky for a phone; call quality just adequate (on Cingular)

    Summary: For anyone who has wanted to have the freedom to send and receive email and have internet access without lugging around their laptop, the RIM Blackberry 72XX series (the specific model varies according to the wireless carrier you sign up with) goes a ... read more

  • Mixed bag

    Dec 13 '04
    Pros: Keyboard, no stylus to lose.
    Cons: Emits interference while receiving.

    Summary: The 7280 is identical in appearance to the 7230. Having used both, I have found no discernable difference, aside from the fact that the 7280 was supplied by ATT/Cingular, and the 7230 was supplied by T-Mobile. Essentially, both are excellent ... read more

  • The best mobile internet tool - if you can afford the monthly fees.

    Aug 16 '04
    Pros: All-in-one Email/SMS/Wap/Phone, Internet capable with BES/MDS access.
    Cons: Cheap to buy, but "expensive to own". High monthly fees.

    Summary: I've been disenchanted with mobile devices for a long time now. It seems every PocketPC, Palm or Mobile Phone did one thing well, but all else poorly. There's a pretty good rule about electronic devices. "Small, Cheap, Good, pick any two." This ... read more

  • Incredible Integration of Email & Phone

    Jun 04 '04
    Pros: Easy to read color display; understandable graphics; very clear phone reception; great battery.
    Cons: Internet graphics are limited.

    Summary: If Maxwell Smart had one of these, he could have gone barefoot! For the past eight months or so, I had been using a Blackberry RIM 957 for remote email. It is an impressive piece of equipment, but very much in the shade and outdated by the ... read more

  • Express Reviews
  • Great for business users

    Jul 05 '07
    Pros: Excellent email and sound quality on calls
    Cons: Hard to surf web meaningfully

    Summary: I have owned several blackberries now since they first started coming out, and have loved each of them. The blackberry service providers have also fixed a lot of the problems that used to exist with them (low voice quality/volume, not enough capacity on

  • I LOVE IT!!!1

    Dec 28 '06
    Pros: It has stood the test of time.
    Cons: No bluetooth. A company by the name of Cardo now makes a bluetooth adapter.

    Summary: This is a great starter phone. Although there are many new gadgets out there I still enjoy my phone. It has stood the test of time.

  • Good equipment

    Aug 31 '06
    Pros: Batt life, QWERTY keyboard, Services
    Cons: Only 16mb ram, poor light, some java errors and hangs

    Summary: I have 2 years now with a 7280. NIce equipment, most people in my office have 7280 and 7290. Blackberry service is amazing, if you have BES in your company (the server), this is a very useful and incredible

  • Great e-mail device; so-so phone

    Mar 23 '05
    Pros: E-mail, battery life, QWERTY keyboard
    Cons: Phone features and convenience

    Summary: Overall I have been happy with this phone for 15 months. I bought it to replace a separate PDA and phone, for the sake of cost and convenience. It has lived up to my expectations. After using it for a while as my primary phone, I do long for more

  • FIVE STARS!

    Mar 01 '05
    Pros: It is my wireless email, phone, address book, calendar. Wonderful!
    Cons: Needs more fields in the contact list for additional information.

    Summary: Email kept me in real estate business after Hurricane Charley. No phone signals were available in our Southwest Florida area but, with my Blackberry, I could email customers around the world. I have been with customers showing properties and been able to

  • OPERATING SYSTEM WEAK DON'T BUY

    Sep 12 '04
    Pros: Great functionality
    Cons: operating system NOT robust, Very Unstable but with caution

    Summary: The functionality of the Blackberry PDA is wonderful - it can "do it all" - email, phone, PDA, calendar, etc. Here's the CATCH: The operating system is unstable and crashes all the time! The O/S is built on a JVM platform, Java Virtual Machine. (I

  • Connected ALL THE TIME - I love it

    Aug 22 '04
    Pros: Ease of use, great display, long battery life
    Cons: Awkward style for phone use

    Summary: I love this Blackberry - the pre-loaded applications are easy to use and the push-technology of Blackberry's email service is fantastic! Color screen is easy to view, even in strong light (which was one of the problems I had with my Palm prior to
