Summary: The best BlackBerry I have owned
Comment: First I have owned and used a lot of BlackBerrys. I started with the 7100, and have moved up from there to use the 8700, 8800, 8100, 8300, 8310, 8320, and now my 8900. I have also used a Storm 1 some as well.
The 8900 is an amazing phone. Its fast and snappy. I don't have the constant problem of running low on memory I had with my 8320. The WiFi is great when I am somewhere with weak signal, or best of all on an airplane equipped with WiFi. I was able to surf, IM, and Tweet the entire flight. I have never had a flight feel so short.
The phone is a nice size to fit in my hand for typing or calling. The keypad is great and I have no issues typing on it.
The only complaint I have in the design is the placement of the charging port. It is a little inconvenient to hold and charge, but you learn to work around it.
I have no complaint about the memory card slot being under the battery. I don't have a need to change it.
By far this is my favorite BlackBerry I have used and would recommend it. It works perfect for heavy email, texting, and messaging that I do.

Summary: The best BlackBerry
Comment: Good Morning. I live in Venezuela, and I buy this phone with many expectations, and I was not disappointed. It is a mini laptop phone, he has all the tools to keep you well informed and connected to the Internet. The emails arrive in real time, has speakerphone, bluetooth, GoogleMaps, and one modest gps. Great expandable memory, keyboard perfect, neither too large nor too small. The resolution of your screen is phenomenal. The 3.2 megapixel camera has autofocus.
The only detail, if you use the internet much much like the facebook mobile upload photos, and the messenger, because the battery only lasts 1 day. In no other complaints.
Purchase a longer battery life and be happy.
It has many applications, I can open PDF files, I think I need only get applications to open compressed files.
The size and weight are ideal. If more light would give the feeling of being poor, if not heavier than many believe is outdated and is made with materials global warming.
The agenda is amazing, very intuitive.
The trackball is strange at first, but 3 days and ends becoming familiar atmosphere.
It's the best phone I could buy, and amazon offers the best price and with free shipping.
Here in Venezuela, is the best for the blackberry messenger, we Venezuelans are more accustomed to SMS messages.
100% recommended.
Greetings

Summary: One of the best smartphones out there.
Comment: * (This review is for the Unlocked Javelin) *
I will try to give a review that will help you decide if the phone will work for you, maybe you can relate from my experience or needs. First of all ask yourself what other options you currently have on the Blackberry market. Bold has a pricey tag and its not that great, the Storm has received so many negative reviews that is hard to think of a reason why to get it, and now, the Javelin.
I've been using a Blackberry Pearl for over a year now, and even though I found the user interface a bit confusing, I enjoyed the fact of having so much connectivity in such a small package. I'm not an enterprise user, just a guy who wanted to have Blackberry messenger available to chat with my friends worldwide, facebook, msn, etc. Some of my frustrations with the Pearl were software speed, lack of internal memory (by now you know that adding external memory doesn't help at all, for all major apps are installed in the BB's main memory) and the built in web browser.
I've had the Javelin for two weeks now, and I'm absolutely pleased. I'm not going to go into details of how it looks, chances are that if you are reading this is because you think is a nice looking phone, and you'd be right. This processor makes the phone perform really fast, most apps run smoothly. User interface is improved, although I still believe that in could be much more user friendly. The 3.2 MP camera is actually pretty decent, not the best, but just right. All this plus the fact that it has a bright and crisp screen compared to other smartphones out there.
I'm not going to say anything about the lack of 3G, if you buy this phone you should know that, and there is no reason to give it a negative review because of it. I've been reading issues about the speaker, but personally I've had no problems with that nor reception.
Heres a major flaw though... Let's face it; if you use your Blackberry as much as I do, you probably know that the battery doesn't last an entire day. Especially when you're hooked on on IM. One of the nice features I loved on my Pearl was the fact that the Usb charger was very popular, so even if I lost my wall charger I could always find a Motorola charger to plug it in to, buy one for 3 bucks, or just grab any of the supplied USB cables from an external hard disk, PS3 controller, mp3 player, etc, and just recharge it using my computer. So battery life was never really an issue for me. RIM has introduced a new plug that killed that convenience. It might not look like a big deal, but now I realize how important it is for me. It doesn't change the fact that is a great phone though.
Bottom line, if you're making the switch ask yourself if you are in desperate need of 3G network. If so, don't even bother getting this one. If not, you will find yourself pleased with a blackberry that look so over the edge, and with great performance. I would strongly suggest buying a car charger and an extra wall or PC charger. Does it deserve 5 stars? No. Its not just about the phone, it's the software itself, and I know RIM can do so much better and add more features, better looking menus, address book, calendar, etc. Why is the iPhone so successful? Its cool and its easy to use. The blackberry market is changing, and there is a growing market of conventional users wanting a cool phone with great features, all supported by the Blackberry Platform.
