A new Smartphone has recently hit the market. The Blackberry Bold 9000 3G has been enthusiastically received and is already being described as a superior alternative to the iPhone. Unlike preceding offerings from RIM the Blackberry Bold is 3G HSDPA compatible and supports UMTS 2100/900/850 mhz networks as well as GSM 1900/1800/900/850Mhz bandwidths.



The Blackberry Bold 9000 Smartphone facilitates GPRS, EDGE and HSDPA, which basically means there are numerous of information sources for the phone. It also includes WIFI for hotspots and speeds can be up to 14Mbps on 3G networks in Australia.

To set up your email on this smart phone is fairly simple in comparison to other phones. You simply input your email address and password and the device then automatically searches through its database of servers and locates the right settings for you. Sit back and relax whilst it retrieves your emails.

We were amazed by the clarity and color of the display which is WQVGA 480X320.

What's also truly great about the new Blackberry 9000 Bold 3G Smartphone is that it is iTunes compatible using Blackberry Media Sync. Just plug into your desk top via USB or Bluetooth, pick out the items you want to sync with a magically it happens.

Other fresh features that is making it such a success includes a memory of 1Gb through using a Micro SD card Slot, so it can be improved up to 32Gb. The battery is interchangeable and it also comes with a 2Mb Camera with LED photo light illuminator, a Video Recording option and a two year warranty, which is rather unique.

Viewing is operated by the track ball for navigation. This will be more familiar for mouse users than the iPhones finger slide operation and can be done singled handed.

Its internal GPS includes Blackberry Maps and a voice guidance system that is accessible through Tell Map, transforming it into a Satellite Navigation device. There are also bill payment choices using Mint Mobile Payments so it can be used as a Mobile Eftpos machine.

This version of the Blackberry is ideal for those constantly traveling around the country. If your company uses Salesforce, the Blackberry Bold 9000 3G can be synchronized to work with Sales Force CRM Software.

What probably makes it more compatible for business use that the iPhone is that it can be used single handed ?.. which is hard to do with the iPhone when it comes to just making a phone calls. Overall, the new Blackberry Bold 9000 3G is the choice for a total wireless solution.
