So, after weeks of frustrations with DHL Germany (who, BTW are not fast at
all being a division of the Deutsche Post, so try not to be fooled) my new
Blackberry Bold 9000 arrived. What can I say, it's a Blackberry!:-). It's
nice to receive the emails on your phone screen at seconds after they are
sent.
Here are its pro features:
1. first of all, it is very beautiful:-)
2. has the brighest/clearest/vivid screen I ever saw in a mobile device
3. it has GPS so I can use the Bold with the not so expensive Vodafone
Navigator application
4. its loudpeaker - very powerful and clear
5. 3.5G data connection so it is very very very fast in downloading
Not so good points:
1. the back cover creaks and it is not so solid
2. the Bold loses often the 3G connection and it reverts to 2G and then 3G
and so on. I suppose the software is not so mature and I'm waiting for some
firmware upgrade
3. the wifi connection is OK but hard to configure and use. Not so simple
and straightforward like in S60 Nokia's smartphone
4. the cam is average, only 2 Mpx
Overall, the device is above my expectations for a Blackberry and I'm happy
to use it because, for me, the push email is the most important feature.
If you have questions please fill in the comments.
PS> I'm missing my second N82 already which I have sold it. Its picture
quality is really amazing!
Just ordered it from Ebay Germany. Counting the days till the postman will
ring to my door!
I really want this phone. Hope it will be available here in 2-3 weeks!
Specs here.
Highlights:
- qwerty keyboard IMHO as good as Nokia E90 Communicator's
- looks absolutely gorgeous - slim and very good built
- for the first time in an E series device Share Online is included, so I can post immediately to Vox and Ovi
Cons:
- not so good 3.2 Mpx pics - I will wait for a new firmware adjustment
- no Blackberry Connect client available so I'm testing Nokia own push email beta and Emoze.
1. I sold my Nokia N82 so the daily photo-blogging is out of question now.
I'm using my Blackberry Curve and the pics taken with are shitty:
So yes, its true (from this morning only):
2. I have officially quit smoking. From two packs a day to nothing, it is hard but I'll try somehow. So, please show me your support:-).
Just ordered this:
Didn't shop online today, even it is a so lazy sunday and I'm postponing the two frenchies bath. I have never been a two-phones type of guy but I'm really missing my push-email from Blackberry. I had one Curve 8310 Blackberry though, two months ago if I'm not mistaken, but now I choose a red one. Maybe a future gift for my wife after I will be bored of no- 5 megapixels good cam from my Nokia N82, no wifi connections etc. Did I tell you that I swap my mobile phone every other month? Did I tell you that I'm eagerly awaiting that Nokia E71 to get the official announcement and than order it? Did I tell you that I'm dreaming of a nice and sleek touchscreen Nokia communicator? I suppose not. Now my credit card is suffering, but hell, I'll manage things somehow.
Note: knock on wood. Hope that ebay Blackberry seller really unlocked my red beauty. If not, I've spend shitloads of cash for a device I cannot use in Europe.
