Excellent

The good: Sleeker design (compared with the earlier Bold) that includes an optical trackpad; 3.5mm headphone jack; brilliant display; 3G capable and Wi-Fi with UMA support; Bluetooth; GPS; faster processor and updates to BlackBerry OS 5.0.

The bad: BlackBerry browser doesn't compare to the competition; compact size results in a smaller display and keyboard, but they aren't deal-breakers.

The bottom line: The RIM BlackBerry Bold 9700 brings T-Mobile its first 3G BlackBerry and improves on its predecessor with a sleeker design and more power. We only wish it had a better browser to complete the package.
