"Almost, but not quite"
What I like:
Ease of use. the alarm, the calendar were used a lot. Loads of fields for contact information
What I don't like:
It fell apart in 11months
Review:
The phone worked beautifully until the 11th month. OK, I dropped it a few times but I dropped phones in the past that didnt stop working. I have about 5 other phones in storage that were battered but functioning (one of which I've just started reusing).
What went wrong was quite sudden. The phone started to displayed stripey lines on the screen. When you turn it off then on again, the same stripey behaviour.
So although it started off well, it really did fall apart.

BlackBerry Storm 2
Clicking touchscreen may be useful for clumsy people, but ditching the Qwerty keyboard has its drawbacks
INQ Mini 3G
Sluggish at times, and not the easiest phone to use, but it offers a great range of features at a low price
BlackBerry Bold 9700
Has everything that makes the BlackBerry format great, but other smart phones offer more innovation
