I've had by bb for about 4 months now and absolutley love it. I like that I can get my e-mail and IM people from it. The web could be a little better though. I would rate it a 4 out of 5.

Well, althought I did eventually get a 7250 (just cuz I had to switch to Verizon for business), my 7100t was great. There are a lot of people who have complained about it but I never had any audio or volume problems. It is a little more phone oriented than the 7200 series but I definitely think it is great for messaging either way. Not as many keyboard shortcuts work but I don't think I'd say it really detracts from it. I know use a Series 60 phone on T-Mobile (my BB is only for messaging) and I find S60 to be really awesome. But I'm a little more multimedia oriented. I miss push email but it is just a different phone. Won't say it is better or worse than my BB's but sometimes I miss my 7100t... of course, if I ditched my N70 (Nokia) I'd miss that just as much.

I'd give the 7100t a solid 4 of 5.

I would give my 7100t a 3 out of 5. I do not have the phone/volume problems that many seem to experience and consider myself lucky in that regard. You get used to the suretype, though I'm looking forward to going back to a full keyboard on the 8700. I'm a little tired of the see/are confusion.

I give it a 3 out of 5, SureType kinda gets to me when I am talking on Yahoo and the other person is typing much faster then me, on my 7520 I could surpass them with no problems, now it takes a little work.

I've had mine for about 6 months,
form factor=5
email=4.5
screen=2 (washes out outside)
phone=3.5 (volume)
TMO service=4

4.5 here. does what i need. datebook, email, web if needed. aol. msn... only reason its not a 5 is because the input is slightly quirky and you need to learn/adjust to it a bit opposed to traditional blackberry input.. that being said. its still pretty good , easy and fast enough to use rather than being something that would push me away from using it much or cutting things down to bare minimum vague one liners.

4/5 my 7105t has no issue in sun light. But i also work graves so im not up in sun much lol. Texting MMS which it doesnt say it can get MMS it does. Poly Ring. Suretype did take a bit to get used to. Only thing i dont like is cases suck for them.

1.5 out of 5... I have had my 7100g since November and I hate it. I am now on my third software revision. The phone drops call, reboots, hangs, and periodically decides to unpair with my car. And then, it drops out of GPRS and I don't get email. I agree with other posters on screen display -- not usable outside. Having spent another hour and change on the phone with tech support the other day, I am looking forward to a change. Hopefully, Cingular will make things better today when I head over to the store.
