New Blackberry

Anyone have any comments, feedback, good or bad, on the new Nextel 7100i ?

I have a 7520 and the 7100i looks like a nice upgrade but I have heard very
little about it.

if you do email, you will miss the keyboard!!!

I love my 7100i. Keyboard works fine. Word recognition gets better each time
I use it including names. Screen is excellent. I used a 7520 for a few weeks
and thought it was too bulky for me. I waited for the 7100i and am very
happy I did.

OOOpppps Nextel didn't expect the demand of these, go figure!

Mike,

I used the 7520 with Nextel for about 6 months before changing
carriers and buying a 7000 series. When going from a i730 to the 7520
I had to make a doctors appointment to clean the was out of my ears. I
could barely hear the phone ring and missed many calls. Now with the
7000 series the phone rings a little louder but the speaker phone is
so slight that if I'm driving in my car at highway speed and try to
use it I have to turn it around and hold the speaker close to my ear.
Kind of diminishes the intended feature. Motorola definately knows
where to buy good speakers but RIM, the jury is out.
