No Memory Card Bundled, No Camera, mono-handsfree, Average battery Life.
The whole concept of BlackBerry revolves around business communication. Hence, this phone will most probably appeal to a business executive alone. A teenager wouldnt be able to do much with it, as it lacks the fun quotient. The BlackBerry 8800 is a...

Excellent calling capabilities; best-in-class battery; slim design; trackball is great for navigation.
Dated interface; lacks 3G connectivity; creaky construction; multimedia could be better.
