BlackBerry Bold 9700
While it's hard to recommend it as an upgrade to current Bold owners, the 9700 is an outstanding phone in its own right and is still among the best handsets for business users.
Vodafone secures new BlackBerry Bold
Vodafone has announced that it will join Telstra in selling the new BlackBerry Bold 9700, in stores from 2 December.

BlackBerry Curve 8520
With the BlackBerry Curve 8520, RIM has done a good job of creating an affordable phone with all the right features, although you might miss 3G connectivity. Just make sure you get it in black.
-
BlackBerry Curve 8900
We wanted a "Baby Bold" but instead we got the "Bold lite". Not having 3G seriously cripples an otherwise excellent BlackBerry.
-
HTC Touch 3G
Amongst the numerous HTC handsets this year, the unassuming Touch 3G may not make the strongest impact, but it is certainly one of our favourites.
-
MWg Zinc II
The Zinc II looks great on paper with HSDPA, Wi-Fi, a touchscreen and QWERTY keyboard. However, poor design mar the experience, with input being tremendously frustrating.
-
MWg Atom V
MWg's first Australian release is a solid Windows Mobile smartphone at a reasonable price, let down in part by sluggish performance.
-
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.
-
BlackBerry 8707g
The BlackBerry 8707g is reasonably zippy and easy-to-use, but lacks many common smartphone features like Wi-Fi and microSD memory expansion.
-
Palm Centro
Not the flashiest phone around, but its jaw-dropping price, ease of use and vast software ecosystem, make it a good choice for first time smartphone buyers and Palm OS aficionados alike.
