"BlackBerry met my needs!"
Pros: Easy typing, email rocks, IM rocks, very intuitive to first timers, bright screen, easy to set up on PC to sync,
Cons: not upgradable, not as much apps available as Treo 600/650 or Palm in general
Summary: WOW! I tried both the Palm Treo 600 and the BlackBerry 7100t. I was a previous Palm addict until my hands came across the BlackBerry. The SmartQWERTY keyboard is great! If you ever did the old T9 typing on a phone and got good at it, then the SmartQWERTY interface takes you in a whole new level. The biggest advantage to the keys is that the keys are bigger than the micro buttons on the Treo.
The screen is awesome, big interface and very bright. It is easy to read and bright. I use it as a flashlight.
I recommend this for folks who need connection with email, IM and need to use the phone. I use IMAP for my email and it was very easy to set up. I just needed my email address and password and BlackBerry handled the rest.
