3 Reason Why You Want The New BlackBerry 9900
The smartphone category has seen lots of tantalizing new entrants which followed in the wake of the original BlackBerry's spectacular success as the must-have device for on-the-go corporate email. After several models which failed to impress us, RIM has come back to the table with its new Bold 9900 – and we love it!
The much loved easy-to-use keyboard (a BlackBerry standout) was sacrificed in recent models in an effort to slim down the device. It was a huge trade off for many BlackBerry users.
Return of the Real BlackBerry Keyboard
RIM has solved that problem with its new BlackBerry 9900 which will delight the market with its wider keyboard. We tested a demo model and typing on it was definitely smooth. The old BlackBerry keyboard we loved is back, albeit with a few design tweaks and placed on a device that backs tons more power.
Global Connectivity
The Bold 9900 uses 3G and therefore works in all major countries (including Japan and Korea), a critical benefit to international travelers.
A new, more powerful engine and a Liquid Graphics touch screen let’s you scroll through hundreds of emails with the flick of a finger. Loading and zooming is faster too.
App Alert
While there's no shortage of apps today, there are few that offer much practical value. One exception is the BlackBerry Travel. If you travel (and who doesn't these days) then this app can a real lifesaver in keeping you informed of flight delays, gate changes and other travel related updates.
