So many phones try to be the iPhone and fail. If you want an iPhone, buy an iPhone. If you want a phone that can multi-task, feel as premium as an iPhone and has flawless email integration, get a Blackberry. If you decide 400,000 applications you'll never use and a shiny fruit isn't...

This is an Amazing device. Having owned both the BB Bold, iPhone 2g, and iPhone 3g, this is by far the most impressive device of the 3. Key board is perfect. Camera is Significantly better then both the Bold and iPhone. Unique UMA feature is incredible for VoIP calls when connected to WIFI(rather...

The Blackberry 8900 has been upgraded many times over from the previous curve 8300 series, its really like night in day. It has received many upgrades "under the hood" as well as physical upgrades. There is a new keyboard, and the sim card is now able to be accessed without removing the...

I came from an iPhone so I think that's part of my dislike for this phone. I just couldn't stand it. Took forever to get to what I wanted and just as long to get out of it. The trackball idea is cool, but it just didn't seem to function properly. I constantly found myself trying...

The roller-ball was problematic since the beginning. 22 months in the device would reboot randomly and continuously. This prompted the move to the 9780.

I was worried that I would not like the larger size of the phone as I was moving from a BlackBerry pearl. But, the added screen size, and a better overall screen to boot, made up for any issues I might have had. The killer app on a BlackBerry is email and the 8900 does it well with its full...

Overall, great phone. I love the mini-keyboard. The ball might get dirty and that might compromise its accuracy. But anything other is just normal. Very good.

This blackberry is definitely amazing. I had an iphone 3g and i traded with my friend for this phone for a week so he could try it out and see if he wanted an iphone and i fell in love with it. The keyboard is amazing and the buttons feel so nice to type on, very good battery life and it...

A nice phone, albeit a bit of an older model I suppose. It's interesting using it now in a more app-heavy world. More apps just kill the battery, so rebooting a few times is not unheard of. I am quite happy with the phone, however, as just that, a phone. I know to really enjoy apps I need a newer...
