Review: BlackBerry 7130g

"One of the original BlackBerry’s best features was its full QWERTY keyboard, which made writing emails and text messages a very simple affair. But the downside of that keyboard was that it made the handset big and bulky, resulting in most BlackBerry users carrying a separate mobile phone for making voice calls. Research In Motion (RIM) tried to address this issue with the BlackBerry 7100 with varying degrees of success. But now RIM has released a new handset aimed at the user who wants to carry one device for email and phone, the BlackBerry 7130g.
The first thing that I noticed about the 7130g is that it looks good. Whereas previous BlackBerry handsets looked pretty dull and work-like, it looks like RIM considered design as well as functionality with the 7130g. Finished in matt black and silver, the 7130g looks pretty sleek and stylish – OK, it’s not going to win any beauty contests when compared to a Motorola V3 RAZR or a Nokia 8800, but it’s definitely a step in the right direction from RIM....
