I came across this excellent story on the new BlackBerry 8800. The BlackBerry 8800 device is making its appearance around the world and this online overview is from Singapore. South East Asia is proving to be a strong market for the BlackBerry and it seems the 8800 will be a hit if this review is anything to go by.

The author, Francis Yeo, says “although the Blackberry 8800 doesn’t carry fancy HSDPA or wireless capabilities, it won’t fail to please corporate types and Blackberry fans alike with a useful GPS receiver and multimedia zing added to the proven Blackberry recipe. Certain minor things like its slippery keys and inaccessible miniSD slot do cast a shadow on its brilliance but not to the extent you'll want to give the phone a miss.”
