Review: I sell phones for Sprint and Cingular, the BlackBerry just can't keep. Between Treo's Motorola and Audiovoxs' pocket PC phones (these are great--which offer almost all common Windows programs such as Word, Excel, Outlook and multimedia options like memory expansion, and digital camera). The new Pearl will have a tough time competing. RIM will really have to step up if it wants to compete in the consumer market.

Review: I love my 7520 BlackBerry, but I think I'm going to leave Sprint. The new BlackBerry I dislike totally. The sure type is horrible, I love the keyboard style for speed. The screen on the 7520 is dull and not as vivid as the Cingular BlackBerry. The article is correct because a lot of customers are looking for both multimedia and business savy phones.(Treo!) RIM must do better! Fast! Customers are dropping fast. All my friends who had a BlackBerry are moving on to different carriers. Keep the keyboard style, bigger and crisper screen, increase multimedia for downtime, and let Microsoft Office come with the phone. This will be a great start, especially for the Sprint customers. I am tired of seeing RIM making new BlackBerries for other carriers (Cingular) that are sleeker and clearer than Sprint, and that have the full keyboard!

Review: Sony Ericsson launches M600i and gets all the attention from the market. RIM should have had a better designed BlackBerry.

Review: I absolutely agree with the above poster about the expansion slots and the full keyboard. The form factor and roller bar of the full blackberries are very nice but the lack of an expansion slot seems like a terrible oversight.

Review: I have to say that I really like this little gadget and I mean with full-sized keyboard. The smaller version is not just it and if new model won't have a full-sized keyboard then it's just an average phone with extra capabilities. Full-sized keyboard + expansion card are musts in future models.
