By Sandra Vogel, CNET.co.uk on 03/12/2004

More RIM reviews , RRP: AU$649.00

The good:

  • Supports both push and pull email
  • Clear screen
  • Good battery life
  • Quad-band GSM/GPRS

The bad:

  • Limited memory
  • No expansion card slot
  • Keyboard is awkward to use
  • Lacks Wi-Fi

The bottomline:

Vodafone's BlackBerry 7100v is a fair mobile email device so long as you don't need to handle graphics, large spreadsheets or complex documents. But as a handheld/phone combo it's eclipsed by more capable Palm OS- and Windows Mobile-based offerings.

    The Explain Series

    • HTC S740

      HTC S740

      HTC took the Touch Diamond's glossy black frame, stripped away the touchscreen, added a QWERTY keyboard and called it the S740. This latest Windows Mobile smartphone should deliver the same business messaging punch as the popular Diamond.

    • HP iPAQ 612c Business Navigator

      HP iPAQ 612c Business Navigator

      HP's latest iPAQ, the 612c Business Navigator, is a solid offering with lots of features and good battery life. It's a bland-looking and giant handset, but good performance and crisp touchscreen somewhat make up for the poor keypad.

    • Asus P750

      Asus P750

      The Asus P750 may be chunky, but it packs in a huge array of features. Combined with an equally impressive software bundle, the result is an excellent multifunction handheld that should appeal to a wide range of mobile professionals.

    • BlackBerry Bold 9000

      BlackBerry Bold 9000

      The Bold is what BlackBerry fans have been waiting for. It's feature-rich and sharply designed, let down in small measure by some cumbersome software.

    • Nokia E71

      Nokia E71

      With its combination of excellent features and performance, matched with sleek design and its affordable price tag, Nokia's E71 manages to outshine recently released smartphones as our business phone of choice.
