Another Blackberry to brag about...

Date of Review:  Aug 12, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is my third Blackberry and I am very pleased with its performance, quality, and the way it is built.
Review: About three months ago I upgraded my Blackberry 8703e and got this excellent Blackberry 8830 World Edition. Now I have used Blackberry devices for a while and would never go back to just regular phones or even other PDA devices. I guess the saying...

I'm Carryin' An Entire Office on My Belt These Days...

Date of Review:  Aug 25, 2008
The Bottom Line: If business takes you out of the country, a BlackBerry 8830 World Edition is an essential part of your wardrobe.
Review: I'm carrying a BlackBerry® now: I guess that means I've finally joined the real techie generation. And it's not an everyday BlackBerry like I see the college kids using on the plane (in full defiance of the FAA, I might add); it's a - gasp! -...

We bought a Pair!

Date of Review:  Nov 18, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would get them again but I am highly interested in the Blackberry Storm.
Review: We are small business owners- a husband and wife team. For a couple of years we had cell phone plans that would share minutes.  However we always seemed to have a different phone.  In addition to a cell phone each there was one older Blackberry...

King of the Blackberrys - what you need to know. AMAZING !
5/5 stars
This is the way to go if your shopping for a blackberry phone - the only phone that Verizon offers that is ready for international travel. It is a sleek beautiful silver casing that is very user friendly, has a great setup wizard, and the tech support on the verizon side never let me down.The curve and the pearl are good for those that want to text but if your looking to get someone a phone that will leave a lasting impression - give them the best phone that verizon sells... This phone is AMAZING... Pros: Features, qwerty keyboard, international ability Cons: larger screen, faster browser
