As mobile keyboards built into phones become more and more common, I have to wonder if it is worth trying to use. I mean, the little suckers are so small that you must find yourself making mistakes to the point that you feel like just grabbing you notebook PC to accomplish the task. Regardless, the Blackberry handheld is still a great mobile device.

The keyboard is being used in the Blackberry device 7100v, which has just been launched in the UK by Vodafone. The new design means the 7100v is much slimmer than earlier Blackberry devices and it looks more like rival smartphones. The Blackberry is a handheld phone and e-mail device which has become ubiquitous among the corporate elite.
