Blackberry 8800

August 17th, 2007 · View Comments

The Blackberry 8800 is my current phone and my favorite of all the cell phones I’ve had.

This particular model is powered by AT&T, and it’s got all of the tools I need to work when I’m away from my desk.

It’s got e-mail, web browser, IM, voice activated dialing, SMS, MMS, and GPS, as well as a trackball mouse for ease of navigation. It also plays music and video, has a long battery life and expandable memory.

The design is sleek, and it comes with a nice carrying case that buckles over the phone.

This is big to me, as my previous Blackberry phones had a plastic holder and the phone jumped out on a number of occasions when I would run.

Depending on your carrier, you might not be able to get the Blackberry 8800 model, but there are lots of options available on Shopzilla.

Also, one of the most important features to me is the QWERTY keyboard, which means it’s got a full keyboard, rather than having some keys representing multiple letters.

In my opinion, this is the best phone out there for the business user.

    I saw a review of the panasonic wireless camera and the guy held up an 8800 with the video from the camera being displayed…i’m wondering how that was achieved.
    thanks

    I just used the browser on the Blackberry 8800 and went to the URL provided by Panasonic for the wireless camera.

    Like in a regular browser on a computer, I was able to manipulate the controls in the Blackberry browser to choose the image size, how often it was refreshed, etc.
