As noted a few days ago I have been playing with a blackberry from work. After a few days of playing and being constantly connected, I made the plunge for the Blackberry 7290. For the past several months I’ve been using my Treo 600 from Sprint. While I have been relatively happy with it playing MP3’s, taking pictures and getting personal email on it, it just didn’t connect me to the office. I’ve tried pushing to get Good Link installed at work but my attempts failed (for security reasons). After my attempts of trying to get something that would provide me the last piece of the puzzle, I started investigating the Blackberry once again. I reviewed the Blackberry awhile back and didn’t find it favorable. However, I have an open mind and new technologies do tend to get better over time. So here we go!

The past few days at work I’ve been playing with a Blackberry. I know what you are saying, “What the hell are you doing that for?”. Well, trust me, I thought the same thing. Don’t get me wrong I am happy with my Treo 600. The screen is descent, the phone portion is good, lots of software to play with, memory slot, and a fairly small form factor. There are 4 things that hold me back from calling it the ultimate geek gadget though:
- It is not “always on”
- You cannot type on the small keyboard
- I cannot get work related email
- No bluetooth (which I miss horribly)

I’ve been using a converged phone device for several years. I started with the Visor Deluxe which had the phone plug-in into it. After that I had got a Treo 300 but found a few limitations of the device. Then I broke my devices back out and got a Sony Clie UX-50 and Sony T608 Bluetooth phone. After awhile, I really missed the converged device so now I am back to the Treo line (after almost purchasing the new HP h6315). Read on for some nice Treo tips.
Ok, so here is the deal. What if I told you you could cut your $100 or $200 phone bill to $39.00 a month, AND you can have a second phone line for a dedicated fax machine, AND you can have 1500 minutes of long distance? Interested? Read more!

Blackberry, the always on email PDA and phone combination offered by AT&T and Voicestream was released recently. We haven’t had a geek toy posted to the site in quite sometime, mainly because their haven’t been any worthy of writing about. Check out our review before you consider purchasing one of these. Who knows, we may just change your mind.
