If bb9900 dont have those features & is only meant for business use , basically email & BBm then why the hell on earth they asking 32K for this phone? you dont provide the features and than still ask for price which more then S2 , HTC Sensation , IP4 , desire , incredible s and sooo on . mind you these phones are way superior than 9900 in every which way you see but still dont cost a bomb :/ . from next time kindly do think/analyse before making such crappy post .
Cons of bb:-
1 - Every screen
2- no fm
3- below average camera with no auto-focus
4- meagre 10k free apps
5- average battery life
5- biggest joke is that when you download or update any app you have to restart the whole OS . hell are we back to stone age or what?

A good battery
A good quality camera
A secondary camera
Great looks
A fascinating touch screen experience
Voice dialing feature
Full video formats
You see, blackberry is a business phone mostly for secured emails and BBM. Of course, you can have this on 8520 for this instead of or any other phone. But you lose to flash the latest blackberry in your hand 

I am an Canadian and staying in India at present. This handset has started flooding into the market here. Even if you dont own it, you can check it out at any store. DEMO (not dummy) pieces are available at all big stores here. I am not sure about the battery (as I don’t own one), but I can say RIM is imprudent in downgrading the camera and not providing a front facing camera. The back side does not look that great either. You don’t get that excited to fondle with the touch screen because of its small size. Most people, who have bought this, have bought sealed packs without seeing a Demo. I was about to buy it – fortunately, the store put a piece for the demo at the same time. And it did not impress me. Net net, at this price I feel it is ‘NO-BUY’.

Samsung galaxy s2 is reported one of the best dual core android phone,but what I felt bb 9900 processor is faster than s2.

Paid Rs.31,ooo/-[$US.685] for my BB 9900.
Battery back up is bad. Hardly lasts 4-5 hours with normal usage.
Camera picture quality is bad.
Most basic features like voice dialing are missing.
A sure let down by Blackberry.
DO NOT BUY.

Whatever possessed RIM to put a fixed focus EDOF camera on their flagship Blackberry, talk about taking a step backwards, absolute madness!
Mike Lazaredes and Jim Balsillie want their heads banging together to knock some sense into them.
Maybe they have got too much money now and they just don't care any more !

3 days using this device, its great. I am a long time blackberry user but then went to iphone for 1 year for browsing issues. this 9900 is all i need in a phone, its now great for browsing, navigating on maps, no lag atall, great pics, bbm. Awesome phone. ( i just dont like the kinda glass back, would have been more sleek with the same material as the sides (the black)

Dont make calls, dont texts, dont web, dont run any application, dont tap the touch-screen else the screen will glow. Amazing - Battery lasts even to third day!
Charge it in the morning, Use moderately - there would be hardly any battery power left towards the end of the day. FYI - the OS7 and the touchscreen requires higher battery power. RIM has disappointed us with this downsized battery.
