Quick Take: The RIM BlackBerry 7130e isn't new (Verizon has had it for quite a few months), but it freshens up Sprint's rather stale offering of BlackBerrys. The
EV-DO-capable 7130e features integrated Bluetooth, a speakerphone, 64MB of flash memory, 16MB of SRAM, and of course, push e-mail technology; you can also use the device as a modem. The BlackBerry 7130e is available now in stores and online for $199.99 after discounts and promotions. For more information about the 7130e for Sprint, please read our full review of the

Summary: If you want a BlackBerry and can live without broadband speed, consider choosing a different model, such as the 8700c or the 7250. At $300 (as of April 7, 2006, with a two-year Verizon contract), the 7130e is too pricey for its mediocre call performance
