      <description> &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;soso1234 submitted this review of the BlackBerry 7230 / 7210:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Overall rating: &lt;b&gt;4.5&lt;/b&gt; (out of 5)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whenever I go mammoth hunting I ALWAYS bring my BlackBerry 7230. Im able to communicate to my other tribe members not only through banging rocks and grunting, but now through the BlackBerry email system. Due to how indestructible the phone is, I can use it to kill the mammoth if I lose my spear. Overall would recommend but make sure Urk doesn't take it from you... he might eat it!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description> &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;speedywalk submitted this review of the BlackBerry 7230 / 7210:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Overall rating: &lt;b&gt;2.5&lt;/b&gt; (out of 5)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After having used this phone for a while, I can now write a useful review!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This phone is great, reception is wonderful, email function is awesome. The only thing I found this device lacks is a function for group SMS. I can group e-mail, but not so good for guys on the road without blackberries!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This phone has developed one quirk however. After 1 year of use, the phone will "reboot" when a call comes in sporadically. Doesnt seem to do it when I get an SMS or an e-mail, just vioce calls. Go figure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over all, VERY solid phone, as have been all blackberries in my experience. Higly reccommend it, or its successor since it has been discontinued!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description> &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;gambitt submitted this review of the BlackBerry 7230 / 7210:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Overall rating: &lt;b&gt;1.5&lt;/b&gt; (out of 5)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I had the BB (Blackberry) 7230 for about a year and a half. As a portable e-mail device it is great. I need a phone that will work as a PDA for me as well and as phone it is horrible. It is very apparent that the phone was a last minute addition to this device.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pros: Excellent portable e-mail device, great for browsing web pages but you have to be patient (and not paying for it). The keyboard is easy to use and quickly picked up. Navigation on the menus is easy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cons: The phone function is an afterthought. No missed call or message waiting indicator. Useless answer and hold feature on phone. Erroneous call answering when getting it out of the holster. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you miss a call, there is no indicator that you have. You would have to enter your password to get to the main menu, enter your inbox. Search through all your message to find a missed call message. A waiting voicemail is also an e-mail, I get a lot of e-mail and do not check every time there is something new. Hence many people are angry with me that I have not returned their call in a timely basis because I did not know there was a voicemail or a missed call.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Additionally the BB has three options when you have a incoming call. Ignore, answer and Answer and hold. What the %$##! is answer and hold? When a call come in the BB is often in the holster and in taking it out and selecting the correct button I have many times selected the wrong option. Answer and hold pick up the call and the person calling hears dead silence, and then hangs up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a Bluetooth adapter that I understand from a co-worker that used it for a week that it is horrible as well.&lt;br /&gt;If you need a device to get and send e-mails the BB 7230 is great. Stay away if you want to use it as phone as well.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description> &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;tunakoyo submitted this review of the BlackBerry 7230 / 7210:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Overall rating: &lt;b&gt;4&lt;/b&gt; (out of 5)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When you open the box for the Blackberry 7230 you will see an attractive assortment of baggies with 2 USB power cables, a holster, desk holster, a very nice home charger with 3 detachable attachments for power conversion. (for those travelers)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Blackberry casing feels to be of quality made plastic. I'm not a fan of the color. Its too corporate feeling. (Blue) : ( Also the T-Mobile sticker on the front is extremely cheesey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The clarity of the screen is awesome! The text is easy to read and it looks like you can actually touch the letters. Its so neat! As far as the functionality of it all. I don't really know. I didn't play with it long enough. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The feel of quality and functionality is all here in this model! I'll rate this a 4.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
