    PC World Reviews Blackberry Bold - PinStack.com - BlackBerry forums

    PC World - BlackBerry Bold 9000 - Reviews - Hardware - Mobile Phones

    Choice snippet:

    What's Hot: Design, display, QWERTY keyboard, user interface, voice quality, Wi-Fi, HSDPA-capable

    What's Not: Mediocre camera, questionable battery life

    The Final Word: The Bold is by far the best BlackBerry yet and has very few flaws. A refreshing new interface, outstanding display and reasonable multimedia features are just some of what it has to offer. Most importantly, this superb device is great for both enterprise users and regular consumers.

    Yeah... I'm a bit obsessive with my Bold news. I just want it released already! I go back and forth between Crackberry, Pinstack and BlackBerry Cool several times a day.

    I'm already a crackhead without even owning a CrackBerry.

    Not very impressed with the review... It sounds like all of the stuff we already knew lol It didn't go into detail at all about the device. I don't like the iPhone comparisons either bmc. The Bold is not touted to be an iPhone killer, so let's keep the iPhone comparisons for the Thunder/Storm. Also, I love how everyone thinks that the Bold is copying the iPhone with their look and I qoute " The silver edging surrounding the Bold bears an uncanny resemblance to the iPhone, as does the flat nature of the display and curved rear". The Bold was in development before the iPhone, so this guy has no idea what hes talking about. The best part is with the curved back. The original iPhone didn't have a curved back, and no one knew what the iPhone 3G(the one with the curved back) was going to look like so how could RIM copy it?? It seems that most journalists just love to slob on Steve Jobs' knob. Now don't get me wrong I love Apple and all of my computer related products are Apple (MacBook Pro, Airport Express/Time Capsule, iPod Classic, and up until last week an iPhone), but when the iPhone comes up it seems everyone rushes to back up Jobs. I'm just getting a little tired of it that's all.

    I believe the 1GB is onboard memory in addition to, I believe, 512KB flash memory.

    There's only going to be 128KB flash memory for programs, according to Kevin's rap-sheet:

    BlackBerry Bold - Features and Specifications! | CrackBerry.com

    Memory - 1GB on-board (storage) and 128 MB Flash (applications)
