Blackberry Curve 8300: The Corporate Cell Phone
Anyone who is in the market for a new Blackberry might be intimidated at first when looking through the selection of phones they have to offer. There are many phones in the Blackberry family. While each phone might not be better or as good as the last, the RIM Blackberry Curve 8300 is clearly geared towards people who would use the phone for business as opposed to casual phone users. With its lack of media streaming and video recording capabilities this is a great phone for anyone looking to use it solely for business with its amazing corporate applications.
For starters the 8300 offers a full QWERTY keyboard. As opposed to the older models this model features keys which are farther spaced apart and aren’t flush with the device. Meaning you wont have any trouble typing messages on the keyboard. The phone also includes an automatic spell check (which can be switched off) on all emails, messages, memos, etc. This is a great feature for those sending out important business related material and doesn’t want to embarrass him or herself with a message containing spelling errors. As well as the typing functionality the trackball navigator makes the phone a breeze to use.
Another great feature beneficial to anyone working for a business is that the phone is able to link up with the companies Blackberry Enterprise Server. This allows the user to send and receive corporate emails. In addition, any user who is on the enterprise server will be able to open any file format recognized by Microsoft Office. They will be able to view contracts and business proposals typed up in Microsoft Word, spreadsheets which were prepared in Excel, and complete Power Point presentations. Anyone on a business trip will surely be taking advantage of this amazing feature.
As mentioned earlier the phone does not support any media streaming. You will not be able to watch or listen to music off the internet. This is a big let down when compared to the amazing service V Cast has to offer. While you are still able to insert your own audio and video files into the phones 64MB flash card, it would have been nice to include the option for streaming media. The web browsing also suffers from this lack of 3G support, with load times of certain websites almost at a standstill.
The camera feature found on the phone is quite adequate. It offers a couple of options for image capturing (but this feature is found on all camera phones). The phone cannot however record video. If you are a business person then this function would have seemed useless in the first place anyway.
If you want a phone that will help you with your business needs the RIM Blackberry Curve 8300 is right up your alley. Everyone else might want to steer clear. In this day and age phones can do anything and everything the heart desires, the average person might be disappointed with this phones lack of media sharing.
