CNET Asia Review

The good: Sleek and sexy design; integrated GPS; push-to-talk capabilities; multimedia features; Bluetooth; QWERTY keyboard; long talk-time battery life.

The bad: No 3G or Wi-Fi; call quality a little muffled; wide design is awkward to hold; media player could use some refinements; instant messaging is limited to the BlackBerry Messenger client.

The bottom line: Despite some minor issues, the RIM BlackBerry 8800 offers mobile professionals a well-rounded smart phone with added multimedia functions, GPS, and push-to-talk capabilities. That said, messaging remains its forte.
