Hi,
I wanted this blackberry to be my new phone but I still concerned about a lot of thing likes apps or the slower performance if I have lots of app or picture. Do you suggest me to buy this or I just wait for 2-3 months until the new one coming out? Thnks you so much.

@carmen….bigs obviously meant 8320 but you’re too stupid to see the error..instead you had to pass a smart-ass comment which shows how dumb you really are..

This really is the best hardware technology from Blackberry. When shopping around though, I really wish its website was a bit more better in terms of the 360 degree images.

Indeed, the internet on the 9700 seems to be a lot slower than on my 3gs.. both with AT&T..

$614, that’s sick! Everywhere else it’s well over $1000.

AT&T just got this phone and it is so legit! I love it so much that I am switching from Verizon over to AT&T as soon as possible. I could not find one thing wrong with this phone – it is absolutely substantial!

Shopping for a smart phone. More interested in email than texting and a phone that I can sync with outlook or act contact calendar on the road. Is Blackberry the right direction for me to look?

I got the Bold 9700 on friday. So far I’ve found that its very fast, no comparison to my 8310.

I’m dissapointed that my UMA doesn’t work. I’m with Rogers and they said that I needed to subscribe to a service which they call Talkspot. Still doesn’t work. My gf has a pearl flip without the “talkspot” service enabled and her UMA works.

anyone else having this issue?

I’m returning this phone this weekend. And I thought the new iphone was crap..

I hate the thought of returning two phones in one week, it’s not typical of me, I just don’t like this phone… it’s too mushed together… If you’re a hyper texter like me, you can relate

Highly disappointed with the 9700 which was released today. I am a Bold 9000 user and I am going to miss my huge display screen The 9700 is nothing but the tour with a track pad also where is the new curve? Not the 8900. Blackberry needs a real upgrade. I am looking forward to a Droid. When is AT&T going to release their first Android phone? If something doesn’t happen soon I’m going to Verizon.

Canada’s got the jump on Blackberry devices because RIM is a Canadian company.

It’s due Nov. 27th, according to Wall Street Journal’s Katie Boehret, in this video review http://macspotlight.blogspot.com/2009/11/wall-street-journal-blackberry-bold.html

She wasn’t too shy with the review she ended of by saying “But since many of the Bold 9700’s features are about the same as less-expensive BlackBerrys, it’s worth considering the Tour and Curve 8900 before you spend $200 on a device that no longer lives up to its bold name.”

Kinetic Scrolling –
Will the 9700 track pad allow kinetic scrolling?
