Whether it is the closest Indian restaurant in Mornington or a wine shop in Wanaka, the Smartphone can help.
The GPS system locates your position and then, with the help of the Yellow Pages, you can find the nearest pizza, accommodation, parking, petrol, cinema or nightclub all at the touch of a button.
The addition of Google maps makes it easier to plan and view your trips.
And forwarding your email to your telephone is a breeze.
Packed full with impressive features and all the latest technology, the phone is a lightweight, stylish design that does not weigh down the handbag!
It is finished in metallic titanium and a unique keypad that uses new SureType technology, which combines traditional phone-style key layout with computer-style letter layout.
Each key has a maximum of two letters, providing a more accurate word prediction as you type.
It is a generation two Pearl so it is equipped with a 2 megapixel camera and video camera.
All files can be saved on the phone or by using the expandable memory.
The multimedia player provides easy access and organisation of your media files and great sound with or without headphones.
The phone is also equipped with all the usual features, including voice dialling, note recorder, calendar, alarm and Bluetooth.
Memory and talk time are reasonable.
The memory is 64 megabytes Flash Memory plus MicroSD memory card.
The specifications say there is four hours talk time and 360 hours standby.
This BlackBerry stands out from the rest because it manages to have all the features of today and still remains sleek and slim. - Lauren Mackenzie
