I LOVE BLACKBERRY. I HAD THE 7520 WITH NEXTEL AND NOW HAVE THE 7100G WITH CINGULAR. THE FEATURES ARE WORTH THE MONEY. IT TOOK A LITTLE WHILE TO WORK THE KEYBOARD BUT NOW I SURF THE WEB AND CHECK EMAIL LIKE NOTHING. IT DOES NOT HAVE A CAMERA BUT OH WELL. IF YOU HAVE THE MONEY TO BUY THIS PHONE, DON'T WAIT! GET IT NOW.
I've never had a BlackBerry before and I've only had this one 2 days and I am hooked. This is a good phone all the BlackBerry features on top. Great!!
This phone does not have a full QWERTY key board.
Also the Bluetooth functionality is very limited,
no data exchange. If lack of Bluetooth feature is for security reasons then RIM let me choose to enable or disable those features.
Smart type takes about 3 days to get used to. Outside keys are a little difficult to see due to keyboard color layout but overall, very impressive recognition. Speakerphone works great with good sound and sensitivity.
Screen display is brillant and slightly smaller screen than traditional Blackberry is a non-issue.
Bluetooth set up was flawless; paired with a Motorola HS810.
