              Robert Sobu, 18 Sep 2009No comment on the phone, just wondering why the English bei... moreMy friend Robert, your English isn't particularly fluent if you say things like "wondering why the English being posted by the commentors in this column are so bad"

              English ARE bad? Seriously? If your grammar was accurate, you'd write something else. So you're here basically just to criticise others and you're pretty horrible at the same thing for which you're dissing them. How sad.

                pranav, 20 Sep 2009hi dear, see there is a big different in BB servic... moreFor all people who are saying that GPRS/Edge gives only a Pull Mail option, please note that if you are using a Windows Mobile, you can always set the syncronization to a real time option. And if you are using a Symbian mobile, you can alwys use hundreds of available softwares which gives push mail option.

                For all phones, there are hundreds of email softwares available for push mail using GPRS or Edge.

                But anyway, BB has its own class. :)

                              It's Class is lower than the 8900 (I'm using right now) but it has the essentials of a black berry. They've lowered camera resolution, No GPS, No 3G. But without those three things this phone still owned up to it's black berry name.

                              So in my opinion this will be an affordable (but yet good) Black berry, and my prediction it will flood the market (specially in Asia) because it is cheap but can still do all emails, facebook, and internet.
