Excellent

8.0

out of 10

CNET Editor's rating: 8.0 out of 10
Reviewed by Bonnie Cha
Review date: 12/6/05
Release date: 11/21/05

The good: The RIM BlackBerry 8700c benefits from an Intel processor and EDGE support, as well as a bright display, a full QWERTY keyboard, and a slim design.

The bad: To our disappointment, the RIM BlackBerry 8700c uses a proprietary instant-messaging client, and Bluetooth is limited to use with headsets and car kits.

The bottom line: Armed with an Intel processor and EDGE support, the RIM BlackBerry 8700c offers mobile professionals a winning package of performance, productivity, and design.
