I have this phone and I can't figure out how to use the video camera on this phone.
Is there even a video camera on the phone or does it simply have video support

Hi,

I got the phone last week and so far so good. I have used alot of PDA's etc but always fancied a Blackberry so thought what the heck.

Definatley a great benift for e-mail, qwerty keyboard that you can even use with one hand, no sliding keyboards out etc.

Only downside I have noticed is you are unable to to video messages. (or so I beleive, I would love to be proved wrong as I would very much have liked this feature).

GPS I thought was not too good, but it's a phone, comes in handy if your out and about walking I must say - leave the big daddy GPS in the car where it belongs.

Overall - I love it, miss a few of the things you would get on a regular phone but this baby does a lot more than a regular phone.

For those who are hesitent about buying it, don't be (I was) but just went for it and think I am going to keep it now.

Enjoy it if you get it.

P.S.

Anyone know how to get MSN on it? I have tried downloading from a link I have previously seen but this did not work on my handset. Any help would be appreciated.

This phone is an excellent purchase. The Blackberry function negates the need for wifi or G3 unless you are 12. The functionality and usability of the phone, especially the qwerty keyboard only becomes evident with ownership. The GPS is usable and there are other great funtions like messenger and voice notes (allows you to send a voice message by mms) but none comapre to the superb email/calender abilities. Being able to sync your calender with an office PC remotely is very valuable especially if you have an assistant. This is not just a business phone but suitable for anyone who relies on email daily. Blackberry have resisted camara functions as it concentrates on the US market where business phones often come camera-less for security reasons.

I have just convinced a colleague to get it. It has been fun watching his excitement over how easy it is to use and how capable it is.

Buy this phone, you'll love it.

Great phone...only problem I've had is with it cutting out during conversation. Its a small trade off though, afterall, email is its main function, and it does it well.

Hi everyone this is my second post from my phone and I have to say this phone is absolutely amazing. Does anyone know if the camera can record video's? Also I am not able to view vids from websites like youtube I'm actually blocked from getting onto the site! Is this because of provider settings or can I dl an app for this? Thanks in advance

I LOVE THE CRACKBERRY!! I will admit I am an addicted. I just upgraded my last blackberry to this model. It should be coming tomorrow, cant wait. Anyway, in response to the question about having one and being a student. I would say go for it. I had it one college. It was convenient. I could type mini notes, send emails, I basically put the syllabus to every class in it so that I know what was due when.

Had many Nokia phones, lots of SEs, this phone must be most user friendly once set with user configuration. It is really something more..
