Hailed as one of the smartest QWERTY phones, the Blackberry Bold 9000 is definitely the best within the no-touch screen display smart phone category. It encompasses the true essence of what Blackberry stands for. Basically, the Blackberry Bold seeks to target individuals who really mean business. With its quad band handset configuration that allows HSDPA, 3G and GPS navigation, RIM (Research in Motion) anticipates that it will give IPHONE 3G a tough competition.
To give you a more detailed idea on what to expect on this magnificent Blackberry phone, here is an in-depth evaluation of its major aspects:
Display
Blackberry Bold 9000 features a more elaborate 480×320 screen resolution as compared to other Blackberry smart phone models. In addition to that, its display is capable of producing 65,000 colors. Even though, its display may not be as rich as other modern phone displays (which offer almost 16M colors), Blackberry bold assures that its bright and clear screen would be enough to offer easy reading – the most basic and primary goal of all Blackberry phones.
Design
Since the phone is pretty much dominated by its QWERTY keyboard, RIM had to widen its body construction in order to make enough room for a comfortable and natural sized keyboard without compromising the size of its LCD screen. Moreover, it carries a dramatically improved look, which is evident through its leather textured back and rounded corners. The said enhancements make this Blackberry phone look utterly sexy while still maintaining a professional feel.
Keyboard
Its smart, slightly angled and well-spaced keyboard greatly adds up to its natural charm. Additionally, its extended keyboard design stands out from other Blackberry phone models. In fact, this magnificent smart phone is undoubtedly wider than other phone models manufactured by many of its competitors. With its wider keyboard, users would find it much easier to type. Moreover, it also has separate keys for making calls and accessing the menu. Perhaps, one of its noteworthy features is the presence of a trackball, which is primarily build to provide easy menu and web page navigation.
Connectivity
As mentioned earlier, the Blackberry Bold 9000 is a quad band phone, thus, allowing you to connect from around the world with the use of varying frequency bands. In addition to that, it also showcases a tri-band 3-G HSDPA connection, which is capable of supporting speeds of up to 3.6 mbps. Aside from that, it is also Wi-Fi ready (so I get to enjoy my Wi-Fi at home), and supports Bluetooth as well as USB connections.
My say
Overall, Blackberry Bold 9000 is perhaps the most innovative smart phone model that RIM has ever introduced so far. It is highly recommended for business professionals due to its professional look, sleek design (chic design too
), and functional features. Bottom line is – Blackberry Bold 9000 is absolutely a worthy phone investment, considering the convenience and services that you’ll get to enjoy!
I’m so glad I got one last year. My berry has a few visible scratches on the housing (particularly on the bezel) due to not so normal wear and tear – I’m clumsy and I keep dropping it on the floor. I’ve been after that white full housing for a while now. Since I can’t find one locally, I’ll just put it on my wish list for now. Wanna know which celebrity is using blackberry? Follow this link.
Mr. Jones’ Graveyard Shift
Just when he thought he would retire, Mr. Jones is getting back into business… the Cemetery biz! He’s trying to win back the love of his life, Mimi, and taking one last shot at making it big… even if it means working the graveyard shift! Start with a shovel and some old grave markers and build it into a marble-clad festival of crypts. Expand and decorate greenways, and erect statues and monuments for the filthy rich. The rewards are to die for!
Multi-tasking, strategy, time management and a spooky, eerie atmosphere. It’s not your usual ‘dash game’, which by the way reminds me that of all the dash games I’ve downloaded I am not fond of Diner Dash at all, sorry Flo. I wasn’t expecting much out of this game and had second thoughts about going through with the download. But I’m so glad I did! I truly recommend it to everyone who can take on a creepy challenge for a day
Tips:
1. Use the shovel or excavator to dig or refill graves.
2. Dump unused things in the recycle bin to earn some money.
3. Do not take a client that offers you a job with a higher “burial budget” if you do not have the money yet. You’ll lose good reputation points if you can’t make it on time.
4. Do not etch the name on the tombstone unless you’re ready to bury the dead. This should be done on the last part after you have decorated the plot.
5. You can work until 12 midnight. Just avoid bumping into ghosts – they can put you to sleep.
6. Green smoke oozing out from a grave means a zombie is about to come out. So add more decor to the plot to make the dead happy
Zombies won’t bite nor eat you alive, they just leave you unhappy with a low income. People who come to the cemetery to bury their dead will only pay you half of what they owe you when zombies are around.
Good points: Good graphics, Good sounds – one of the best games so far. Overall, I give it a 9.5. I enjoyed digging all those graves as much as I enjoyed Ranch Rush (10 points for RR) and the last 2 Delicious Emily episodes. Bad point? I just find Mimi irritating. Last tip: Do not buy the things Mimi is asking you to! Do it on the later part when you have enough money.
It can be addicting, really. So yeah, don’t forget to shower
There are a handful of games I like leaving me glued to my chair for hours – Tradewinds Series, Farm Frenzy, Ranch Rush, Wedding Dash, Fairy godmother Tycoon, Fishing Craze, Miriel’s Enchanted Mystery and Cake Mania. I know, I know, some don’t really sound too challenging but hey, we got different tastes. Although I’m pretty sure you’ll like Mr. Jones.
If you need help, you can ask me. I might be even be generous enough and in a good mood to get you not only the demo *wink, wink*
So, what are you waiting for? Dig your way to a new experience.


Samsung with its new ES Series introduced the model ES10 in February of this year. The ES10 is an 8.1 Megapixel, 3x optical zoom digital camera bearing features found on today’s high-end cameras. At first, I was a bit apprehensive but after reading many reviews online, I told myself, “Not bad…not bad at all!”
I am not a brand-conscious person who will spend a ridiculous amount of money for a small gadget. Unless, of course, I was that interested in photography. I would even settle for an affordable, never-heard-of digital camera as long as it’ll give me the features I need. Since I won’t be using a camera in my day to day activities, why should I buy a Cybershot or a Powershot? I’d rather splurge it on a new Blackberry Bold or a Palm Centro

Highlights:
The ES10 also comes with DIS technology or Digital Image Stabilization which captures crisp and clear images even in low-light places.

Other functions include:

ES10 is available in silver, black, white and pink colors. This baby retails at $199 in local stores and comes with a 2GB memory card.
However, I only got mine for $135 bundled with a casing, strap, batteries and with a free 2GB memory card.
What a bargain :p … Happy enough. Many thanks to Lurchie who recommended the eBay Seller to me!
