The RIM BlackBerry Bold 9000 is awesome!!!! Has all I need for work. The QWERTY keyboard really helps. Other features like, it’s the first blackberry to support tri-band HSDPA high-speed, and has integrated GPS and Wi-Fi, premium Voice Activated dialling and noise cancellation technology, makes it indispensable and completely addictive.

The Blackberry Bold 9000 is a beauty. The design is awesome! The email setup is so simple to use and the qwerty keyboard makes you want to be connected to the phone all the time. Though the bluetooth isn't all that great this phone a piece of technical excellence!

I have had the RIM BlackBerry Bold 9000 for over a week now and it’s fantastic!! There are no issues with the software.. I know because I didn’t have to restart the phone even once!! The most important thing for me is email and web browsing on the Bold is fast, both for downloads and uploads!
