For years BlackBerry phones have only appealed to one type of consumer. With their vast business applications BlackBerry phones have always been an invaluable tool to anyone working for a large company or in a business setting. With such a specific target audience BlackBerry phones needed a way to reach more people. The new RIM BlackBerry Curve 8900 makes that possible. The Curve 8900 takes what BlackBerry phones have been good at and completely revamps it for a new younger media centered audience. This phone will make a great device for business people as well as anyone else looking for an amazing phone with media streaming functionalities.

The RIM BlackBerry Curve 8900 has enhanced the look and design from previous installments. To date it is the thinnest BlackBerry phone with a full QWERTY keypad. When compared to the bulkier thicker phones out there the Curve 8900 is an obvious step in the right direction. The phone also has a more modernized look which is another improvement. In the past BlackBerry phones werent that fashionable, but this new Curve is very presentable with its finely applied paints and finishes. The screens size isnt much to write home about but the color display is simply beautiful. Colors, images, videos, etc will appear very colorful, sharp, and vibrant. The Curve 8900 is also smaller that all over BlackBerry phones before it. Amazingly typing on the keyboard doesnt suffer from the small size. The keys are still spaced well enough apart and are very tactile to the touch because they are raised.

This phone has a wide variety of functions that make it useful for business people as well as enjoyable for casual users. For starters one doesnt need to download an application to open and edit Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents. A Curve 8900 user can do that right off that bat with the new DataViz program. Alternatively the phone features an improved web browser that supports full HTML. Wi-Fi is readily available and allows users to surf the web fairly quickly as well as stream movie and music. With the new web service users are even now able to watch YouTube clips from their BlackBerry. Unfortunately compared with other phones the web surfing is rather slow because of the phones lack of any 3G support.

The RIM BlackBerry Curve 8900 features a 3.2 megapixel camera which takes good looking photos. It is far superior to the 2 megapixel camera found on most other BlackBerry phones. Surprisingly the camera can also record video. But the quality was decent.

The actual phone performs very well. The microphone does a good job at not picking up any background noise so the person on the other line will not have any trouble understanding you. Also the speakerphone was quite functional. The volume was adequate and there wasnt much distortion coming through the speaker when the volume was increased.

The Curve 8900 is a great phone. Anyone who was interested in getting a BlackBerry but deterred away by the lack of media applications of previous phones should seriously consider the Curve 8900. The RIM BlackBerry Curve 8900 will please business people as well as everyone else too.
