BlackBerry Bold 9000 - 1GB - Black (Orange) ?

This is a simply immaculate piece of technology that is ideal for several useful activities for many reasons:- The use of the keyboard is efficient, accurate (not easy to press the wrong key in spite of quite a small QUERTY due to a clever key-pressing mechanism), and the touch and move finger (or thumb) button that allows selection is very easy and precise to use. The resolution of the screen is excellent, and in spite of the screen being very small (compared to any PC or laptop), it is very easy to read, even for a presbyope (person who needs reading glasses) like myself. The other reasons for this ease are very good colour rendering and sufficient illumination. The host of features are brilliant with some not available on simple mobile phones, and these are quite readily customisable. Examples are the on-gadget help facility, which I have not come across before (so you do not need to carry an instruction book), and the ability to edit Word, Excel and Powerpoint files. The help information available on the .pdf file in the included cd is also very useful and comprehensive (it can be saved onto the hard disc of your PC). The bluetooth capabilities work well e.g. the device connects to a hands-free very quickly, and remains connected (does not seem to connect to some older hands-free devices). I found that this gadget allows fast browsing of the internet, especially the use of software on websites specially designed for the Bold 9000. This is also good value for under a pound a day (in the UK only). I have tried a mini laptop and a Datawind Pocket Surfer for share trading before, but they are no comparison to the Blackberry.
