Blackberry
I am thinking about buying a Blackberry and using it with Verizon. I have been told by several friends that the voice quality of a Blackberry is not nearly as good as it is for most standard cell phones. I want to be able to get my email but voice quality is very important to me. Is that true, because I need good voice characteristics for my business.
Thanks for any information.

The voice on the blackberry is just fine. Its all in how you hold it. Im in VZW Tech support and most people have trouble with the 7750 because they hold it wrong and cant hear. PS: You wont be able to browse the web with it anytime soon tho

But we WILL be launching a web browser for it in the future.
My question to clients is this- why do you want a blackberry when the TREO 600 is now "push/pull" wireless sync capable. PLUS it has a browser on it. PLUS it's touch screen. PLUS it has a camera with speakerphone on it. wheew. need i go on?

I suppose one also needs to consider use/function/cost. If all you need is Email, phone, PDA etc, without the cost of the Treo, the Blackberry is a good route - and proven technology. If someone wants the Palm OS than the Treo is the product for them.

cost? blackberry plans are $5.00 more expensive, and have the same email functionality now as the TREO, the I600, etc...

I could be wrong, happens every now and then, but I don't believe Verizon provides HTML browsing for either product on their network with the BES. There is a third party software application that provides full HTML browsing without a BES. Reqwireless is the software. You need to check with Verizon and find out if they provide the necessary IP for the software.
I don't know what Email software is provided with the Treo. You can sync your Email 2 different ways with the Blackberry. You can use the desktop redirector and have Emails forwarded to your device. It requires your computer to stay on all the time and does not support POP3 Email - Yahoo, Hotmail, etc. Best option is the use the Web Client for POP3 Email.

you do know the other smartphones VZW offers (i600, i700, treo 600, kyo 7135) can do push email too right?
I find the blackberry useless because its one big feature ("push" email) can be done on the other devices and the other devices can do more such as web surfing and such.
Am I missing something that the blackberry has over the other devices still?
