Ever since I got my hands on a Blackberry Bold 9900 phone a few weeks after it was released here, I think I had dreams about it. The comfort it gives my fingers when I type, and the combination of touchscreen and a keypad, not to mention that it is the thinnest Blackberry phone, just got me convinced that it’s what I want.

And, so, last month, I finally was able to purchase this phone. And I can tell you now that I’m hooked! It’s light, fits perfectly in my hands, and the navigation is just smooth.

Okay, there’s the issue of the short battery life, but I think I can manage. I don’t really use a lot of programs anyway.

I’ve already encountered some minor issues with this phone, but it’s been pretty slick. The WiFi connection might be a little rusty, but I think it’s just an issue with our setup here. It’s not like I’m going to download large files like new PSP games or movie files anyway.

I haven’t really done any hardcore testdrives on this phone yet. But, I think my only issue with this is the battery life.

I promise to complete my review as soon as I get this tested in our upcoming out-of-town trip. But, I might publish a quick writeup just so I can already share some things that might convince you to buy this… or otherwise.

Stay tuned for my full review up next.
