    Blackberry needs to develop and launch a killer phone like the bold in touch screen format

    1) Must have a slide out key board
    2) Stylus input also
    3) Touch screen
    4) Daul Sim
    5) Standard mini usb charger
    6) Twin camera
    7) T9 on the vertical number key pad
    8) A virtual qwert screen also when it is in horizontal mode with predctive text
    9) long battery life
    10) haptic feedback in touch mode
    11) VOIP
    12) Water proof

    If blackberry makes this at around USD 700 - 900 They will be a leader and will kill sONYS experia, APPLE iphone , nokia communicator , SAMSUNG omnia and HTC touch pro...

        i tried this in a store, it was unlock blackberry storm, i was testing it. the sure press touch screen is not bad at all, i was watching videos on keyboard tips these days and i was able to do it. maybe those who did not know the keyboard tips will not like this, and will try to find it hard texting and typing. but i think seems pretty good. i think i'll buy one soon.

                as someone who actually owns one, AND deals and sells blackberrys every day, people, you need to give it a rest

                no wifi? who cares, it runs faster on 3G than a curve does on wifi
                and the battery life?! CLOSE THE APPS, then you will have no problem
                if you moan that the battery life isnt good, and keeps going flat too quickly, you've only yourselves to blame!

                  I never had Blackberry before in my Life. I always wanted to know why it is so popular specialy in USA? I did not have really right answer. I finally Bought this phone and after using it for about few hours finding out what wast time and money on Blackberry. The reason is so popular in USA is beacuse they do not have phones like Nokia N series, Samsung Omnia, Most of the Sony Smart phones. What a such a big phone for such low preformance and Applications.

                  I will not change ever my Iphoen. or N Series Nokia with this phone. I will most likly keep the phoen and sell it when Samsung Omnia HD come out in few months.

                    I was undecided about this phone when I first got it. Having had it for a few days I sent it back. A few comments: The screen sensitivity to finger touch was poor, the aerial/signal strength was low compared to my blackberry 8800, the caller ID didn't show despite callers being in my contacts although vodafone said this was a software/firmware issue,the screen had a tendency to freeze and finally it kept defaulting to landscape view when I was holding it in Portrait mode. Sadly not too impressed !!

                        What it can do it does reasonably but no more.
                        The screen is good, but it crashes often.
                        Organiser and sound clarity great, but you can't run Youtube on it. Camera is rubbish. Document handling also lousy. There is surely better out there, and the major firmware update to fix issues (in UK) in March has simply not happened. Anyone from Vodafone got the latest excuse to hand? No wonder they are falling over themselves to give these away.

                            Hope this is of some help to you
