Epinions My "other" right hand

by  lirubis,  Feb 8, 2007
Pros: Smart, compact and very reliable, and SO EASY to use.
Cons: The greasy screen, the low battery life, so-so camera.
The Bottom Line: Excellent as your first, entry level Blackberry, great as a phone. No good for people that type a lot.
Review: Being a first time Blackberry user (finally!), I was not too thrilled when our company CEO announced that we were all switching to Blackberry devices at the end of 2006. I just found it spooky to see all those guys poking incessantly at their little ...

Pros: Small, Sleek, Lightweight, excellent sound quality and battery life.
Cons: Camera sucks, side shortcut buttons too sensitive, gets dirty too easily. Expensive!
The Bottom Line: Nice phone with good sound quality. Do not buy if you are only interested in a camera because the camera is horrible. Powerful features for both techie & business users.

Pros: Wi-Fi; Large, Beautiful Screen; Ease of Use; Reliable
Cons: Graffiti Recognition; Battery (In some aspects)
The Bottom Line: Dissapointment will not result in the purchase of this stunning device!
Review: This review is separated into two sections. The fist is just a general summary of what I think of the T|X, and the second part is a semi in-depth look at the T|X and its software/capabilities. Read one, read both, I hope you enjoy it! Summary: The T|X ...
