i have been a nokia user for 15 years and got the E72 but i was dissapointed. Too many small problems with e-mail and bluetooth. Got the bb9700 which is my very 1st blackberry and i was astonished to see how much better it is than a Nokia. Super fast e-mail, clarity on the screen just kills the E72 which seems dull. I wouldnt go back to nokia now.

Why would you buy one of these handsets if you wanted to listen to music etc... These handsets are designed for business people to easily manage their business. It's like an office in your pocket so you can access majority of your business when your outside of the office. If you're looking to buy one of these handsets just for everyday personal use, it's a waste go buy something cheap and symbian or jump on the iphone bandwagon like everyone else...

I received my 9700(AT&T) two days ago and I'm loving every minute of it!! LoL So light in weight sometimes i forgot I have the phone in my pocket when I carry sometimes! But the phone is amazing! Definitely the biggest difference from my Bold 9000 to the 9700 is the size but that's adjustment that I can transition to with no problem.

Just got my Bold 2. Thought I was going mad until I realised that the z and y keys were transposed. Apart from that it is to small compared to the 9000 Bold...its on its way back to the dealer. 9000 is better if emails are a priority....no contest.

Bold 9700 dosen't have EDGE as listed on BlackBerry site. Also WiFi Bands supported are only b/g instead of a/b/g
