Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The BlackBerry 6710 is the first BlackBerry handheld to offer an integrated speaker and microphone. This integrated dual-band GSM phone, email client (with support for corporate email servers), organizer and web browser is the ultimate weapon for mobile professionals.

Design
The 6710 follows the standard BlackBerry form factor. The 160 x 160 screen, which can display up to 20 lines of text, is placed above a QWERTY thumbpad. The screen offers plenty of real estate to view your emails and web browser content. The popular BlackBerry user interface is here, too, which makes it easy to navigate the phone's functions. A jog dial is located on the right side of the unit for quick scrolling through menus and emails. There's also a standard 2.5mm headset jack that can be used with the included headset. A removable lithium-ion battery is housed in the rear of the unit, and there is a docking port-- which mates with the included docking station-- for email, address book and calendar synchronization.

Calling Features
Many of the calling capabilities folks have come to expect in a wireless phone are present in the 6710. A vibrating alert is provided, as is a contacts list/address book that is limited only by the unit's 16 MB of internal memory. Make and receive calls with the built-in microphone and speaker, or use the included headset for handsfree operation.

Messaging, Internet and Tools
The 6710 delivers the legendary BlackBerry email experience. With AT&T's BlackBerry service plans, you can receive emails instantaneously from your personal and enterprise email accounts. With BlackBerry push technology, you don't need to retrieve your email. BlackBerry devices are designed to remain on and continuously connected to the wireless network, allowing you to be discreetly notified as new email arrives.

If your company has BlackBerry Enterprise Server installed, you can take advantage of the power of wireless calendar synchronization. Your calendar events are exchanged wirelessly and automatically so that your desktop calendar and BlackBerry device calendar are synchronized. All your Outlook meeting requests, changes, and updates are instantaneously synchronized with your desktop. Make meeting requests, invite new attendees and more, all on your 6710. Users without Enterprise Server support can manually sync with their desktop calendars and contacts using the included BlackBerry Desktop software and the included docking/charging cradle.

Use the 6710's Web browser to access the Internet from the palm of your hand. Browse Web sites, get up-to-date stock quotes, read the latest news, check weather reports and more. Wireless text messaging is also supported by the 6710. The 6710 also ships with a number of tools, including a calculator with a unit converter, and a to-do list.

Vital Statistics
The RIM BlackBerry 6710 weighs 4.86 ounces and measures 4.76 x 2.9 x 0.7 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 4 hours of digital talk time, and up to 10 days of digital standby time. It runs on the 900/1900 GSM/GPRS frequencies. The phone comes with a one year limited warranty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Amazon is great.. phone is great, just say away from AT&T, July 19, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: RIM BlackBerry 6710 - Smartphone - GSM - QWERTY - BlackBerry OS - AT&T

WARNING: AT&T representatives ("Dawn: R361" and "Max: N360") themselves said during my troubleshooting (as detailed below) that I should NOT have bought through Amazon, and that they have received a barrage of complaints from Amazon buyers! I still really like Amazon, but they're integration with AT&T is non existent. People should not have to wait 2-3 days for service after they receive the phone. Buy the same phone on Amazon, but a different carrier.

I have used two other PDAs but this one is a great bang for the buck. It really delivers. It allows you to store confidential info and password protect it. One can't go wrong with this compact tool.
