I just recently ordered a blackberry 9700 for one of our  users. My over impressions of the device were good. I really like how they have replaced the mechcanical trackball as that causes people a lot issues over time. The battery life is outstanding compared to previous devices.

One funny draw back was removing the battery cover. The device that I got had no instructions for removing the cover.

Even after watching this video the cover refused to budge. I ended up using a small flat screw driver and gently prying the cover down from the top slit and then sliding it down the rest of the way according to the video above.
