A piece of junk. No support from dealer or manufacturer. I wish I had read 'Choice' magazine's review before buying the 8300. It broke down a few weeks after purchase. I have now been waiting almost 7 weeks for it. I'll get rid of it on eBay when it reappears.

BlackBerry 8300

The good: Over time use, I see very great 8300 with the feature gives users feel exciting and always trying to discover the functions of the machine. but in the good things which have not been standardized yet. First: it's about some pictures do too low resolution, a server so should be equipped with maximum thiei a 3.5 megapixel camera, it is too great, instead of the 2.0 megapixel. At the same time, the numbers on the keyboard should adjust the color of letters and numbers to more easily use. If two additional focus on the BlackBerry 8300 is too great.

The bad: some questions and suggestions about the BlackBerry 8300
