♥♥♥♥ Gets the Job Done Without Enthusiasm
I don't own a blackberry. I have heard of them and am a bit intrigued and wanted to see if I really wanted to get one. I've been fed up with the variable reliability of my IPaq and my current phone is on its last days. So I bought the book.

The book did what it was supposed to do. I learned the capabilities of the Blackberry system and didn't have to sit through the drivel of some sales associate who may or may not be aware of what the technology is capable of. I learned a little bit about the different models and how to use the built in software. I consider myself much better prepared to make a decision but my enthusiasm to do so is running low.

I like new gadgets. I like consumer electronics. It is unusual for me to have learned this much about something new without having a BIG desire to go out and get one. I just didn't find anything very exciting or interesting in it. I may or may not buy one. I have not decided yet.

The gee whiz factor may well have been higher if I had actually been handling one of these things but I think the problem for me was that it just seemed so pedestrian. The author does a good job of communicating the information clearly and effectively did so without any excitement.

If you want to learn the basics, this is a good place to start. I just don't feel like starting.
