Blackberry
The book I read to research this post was Blackberry All in One for Dummies by Tim Calabro et al which is an excellent book which I borrowed from the library. There are 3 major types of blackberry, there's the so called QWERTY with its full keyboard, there's the storm with its touchpad & there's the pearl with its trackpad & relatively small display screen. All blackberries include a flash camera. Out of all the smartphones on the market today the blackberry is the closest thing to a mini computer. RIM which stands for Research in Motion makes the blackberry prior to that they were a wireless internet provider. It's worth noting when 9/11 happened & most forms of communication were down in New York pin to pin messaging on blackberries was still operational. It's well worth accessing social networking sites like twitter & facebook on your blackberry. There's often a need for a dedicated app for this purpose & also you get charged by your internet provider for access. A bit of advice set up your social networking account on a computer, often a lot of typing is involved. A new type of social networking involves giving your location & being able to choose nearby places to visit. An example of this is four square. Many companies especially restaurants & shops are trying to market themselves on sites like this.
