It Calls! It Emails! It Texts! (but forget about the Internet)

Date of Review:  Sep 21, 2007
The Bottom Line: It's a great communication device for business professionals - easy to setup, intuitive and nicely functional. Mostly.
Review: Ahhh, yes... the company phone. How I like it so...

My employer (standard disclaimer: I work for AT&T's Wireless division, so please keep that in mind as this product is one that we sell) has thoughtfully provided me with a RIM Blackberry...

Once you go BLACKberry you never go back!

Date of Review:  Apr 26, 2006
The Bottom Line: I can't believe I can do all I can, while away from the office. Check out my short review for a general overview. Go buy one.
Review: This phone is possibly the single best invention, besides the flushing toilet that has changed the world today. Greater than the airplane, greater than the combustion engine, and even greater than penicillin. Alright I might be exaggerating but this...

Quality Over Quantity

Date of Review:  Sep 24, 2007
The Bottom Line: The 8700g is great for anyone who wants to combine business and fun.
Review: I was tired of carrying around a relatively heavy date-book (and four different highlighters) in an attempt to keep track of my insanely busy life; thus, I began (albeit belatedly) considering a PDA device, and was intrigued by the idea of...

Good Sales Companion

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2006
The Bottom Line: Would buy it again unless a competitor was $100 less or more.
Review: My review may read like I am knocking the Blackberry 8700g but I really am not. It has the same shortcomings that I have experienced with all my Blackberries which will probably lead me to try the new Motorola Q or Treo in the future. However, it...

A great leap forward for Blackberry, and a step backward too!

Date of Review:  May 8, 2006
The Bottom Line: Don't buy yet until they figure out what is wrong with the radio. A glitzy phone that won't keep you connected has no business in Business.
Review: I run the IT department of a company full of crackberry addict (for those of you who don't know what "crackberry" is, its those people who can't survive without their blackberry, and for good reason), so I feel obliged to write a review about this...

Cool Phone

Date of Review:  Jul 21, 2007
The Bottom Line: I recommend the 8700g as the pros outweigh the shortcomings compared to other email phones.
Review: This phone was given to me as a gift. I was told I needed to have email on my phone as I wasn't answering it at home. I don't conduct business on this phone as many do, it is really for the email function and my other family members have T-mobile so...

The best Blackberry ever.

Date of Review:  May 9, 2006
Review: I went from a Treo 650 to Blackberry 7100g to the Blackberry 8700g. The 8700 is just fantastic. The screen is ultra bright and surprise, surprise, the battery life is awesome. Where I had to recharge my 7100 every 3 days or so, I can go a week with...

Better and Bigger than the "Blueberry", but worth it?

Date of Review:  Jul 3, 2007
The Bottom Line: A number of significant improvements over the older, corporate standard "blueberry". But if your current blackberry is less than 2 years old, this won't exactly change your life.
Review: I am one of those sad people who is entirely too addicted to the Blackberry. I check it first thing in the morning, when I go to bed, at meetings etc. I get between 75-150 e-mails a day, and so mowing the in-box is a never-ending task.

So...
