Indonesia Will Be the Biggest BlackBerry Users

The number of BlackBerry users in Indonesia that currently range from 300-400 thousand subscribers, is projected to be the largest in the world in the near future. Naturally, the growth of smart phones made by Research in Motion (RIM) was shot almost 500% last year.


Although RIM BlackBerry manufacturer pinsipal troubled about the middle of a service center in Indonesia - which impact the certification suspended imports of goods, but the fact remains not deter many people to continue to subscribe to the BlackBerry. The phone manufacturer is constantly hunted Canadian customers, either through operator partners and parallel importers.

"BlackBerry users most of the world is now in the United States (U.S.) and Canada. In the U.S. alone about one million users. I think that Indonesia would soon surpass that figure," said Chief Marketing Officer of Indosat, Guntur Siboro,

In Indonesia alone, the operator who has been a partner in organizing access to RIM and BlackBerry are pretty much marketing. Since Indosat pioneered the service in late 2004, gradually joined other operators follow suit, such as Telkomsel, Excelcomindo Pratama (XL) in xl-blackberry, and last Natrindo Cellular Phone (Axis) .

Do not stop there, Smart Telecom and Hutchison CP Telecom (Tri / 3) reportedly also will join partners to deploy RIM BlackBerry access. Not to forget Telkom (Flexi), Bakrie Telecom and Mobile-8 Telecom is reportedly also quite interested. So, we can be sure with the increasing number of service providers, the BlackBerry will further boom in Indonesia.

Strengthen the Network

Indosat as the pioneer of the BlackBerry, certainly do not want to lose competitiveness with its competitors. For the sake of maintaining quality customer service, the operator seeks to continue to strengthen access to its network connection that connects directly to the RIM servers in Canada.

Bandwidth capacity dedicated them to the server principal BlackBerry plus, from 20 Mbps to 50 Mbps. The increase this time is a continuation of the previous link capacity, who from 10 Mbps to 20 Mbps, March 2009.

Well, since its capacity increased to 150%, Indosat BlackBerry users should be able to more easily access the Internet, send an email attachment, and of course chat via BlackBerry Messenger.

"It's part of our efforts to improve the quality of customer service BlackBerry Indosat. So they can enjoy access to services faster and reliable," said Gunter.

Increased capacity backbone to this RIM Indosat also performed as part of a trend in anticipation of the addition of BlackBerry customers in Indonesia. Currently users Indosat has more than 120 thousand subscribers.

Blackberry Storm 9500

Research in Motion which makes the BlackBerry, made a breakthrough. They announced the latest model with touch screen named Storm.

The launch touchscreen BlackBerry smartphone is not new, after previously preparing Blackberry Storm 9500 RIM in Waterloo, Ontario, RIM headquarters. The new Blackberry Storm type according to RIM's plans will be marketed in the retail market, with equipment touchscreen is very sensitive to the touch.

Storm touch screen is not touch screen like the iPhone is now considered the best. But the Storm's touch screen can be perceived by its users, not much different when people are pressed another button on the BlackBerry or Nokia Communicator. Storm will be marketed first in the United States through Verizon Wireless and by Vodafone Group Europe before year-end holiday seasons to come. The price, the BlackBerry still keep your mouth shut.

"Pain" on the touch screen Storm comes through a small spring-spring that is placed in it. In addition to making sense, this spring also allows the pressure difference means different orders. When opening an Internet page, for example. If a soft touch, will move the cursor. But the screen when pressed hard, would like to click on the mouse to activate the link or icon. This smartphone also runs on a quad-band GSM, HSDPA, GPS, and multimedia entertainment features a powerful 3-megapixel autofocus camera. (Studiohp)

BlackBerry successfully addressed. RIM finally introspection. Approximately it can be seen from the appearance of the latest BlackBerry phone, BlackBerry Bold 9000. Hape messaging specialist also eventually want to compete with its rivals. With the release of the Bold 9000, a change to the perfect form successfully implemented. Form and completeness of the Bold 9000 is so charming. Eligible to compete with other smart phone.
The interface remains characterized by a wide BlackBerry, but already there are improvements here and there. Both of the design, layout penampatan components to the cosmetic side. Graphite black color so the main choice was directly managed business-class emit fragrance. Layout placement of buttons and other components are also the better. Still with typical QWERTY keyboard, now it looks more confident. Not only the outside view, the user interface has also been improved.

Not quite surprise with its HSDPA capabilities, RIM also give us a surprise with many other features. Although the flagship feature would still push mail. For connectivity, RIM nyediain GSM, EDGE and HSDPA. There is also Wi-Fi and Bluetooth A2DP for short range connections. New features built-in receiver for GPS signals is the BlackBerry maps. Unfortunately the camera that carried only 2 megapixels only.

BlackBerry Curve 8520

BlackBerry Curve 8520, Gemini, More Affordable, Luxury and Equipment Show




Canada made phone vendor offers a relatively affordable price. However, it still provides complete features and amenities, not far different from previous series.

Physically, the BlackBerry 8520 aka Gemini similar to the Javelin and the Tour. Naturally, all three of this series is derived from the portfolio in the same family, namely Curve. Only, Gemini body look more petite than the two previous series.
Striking differences in the design is a material cover, keypad and screen. For Gemini cover material, the material used is a combination of soft plastic and rubber. As a result, this smartphone also resilient.

On the keypad sector, although the same as the Javelin, Tour and Bold, unfortunately, a QWERTY keypad Gemini feels more mini than the other series QWERTY keypad.

Problem screen, the BlackBerry Gemini has a size slightly larger than the Javelin. Namely, 2.64 inches. However, for far less screen resolution. Gemini is only 320x240 pixels, while the Javelin 480x360 pixels. Used the same type of display, ie 65,536 colors TFT.

OS and Interface
Unlike the Tour, BlackBerry Gemini still using older operating system versions, namely v4.6.1, similar Javelin or Bold.

Problem interface, Curve 8520, is synonymous with the handset had the same version of software with it: Javelin and Bold. The structure and menu icons used were similar.

BlackBerry Applications and Features
Like the earlier models, the BlackBerry Gemini still bring a typical facility. Call it Push Mail, which for the moment there is still no match commercially.

For settings, BlackBerry OS already injecting capability automatic settings via the setup wizard. So, no need to bother anymore to set here and there like Pull Mail on other phones.

Another distinctive feature is the BlackBerry Messenger, which allows us to communicate in real time like a chat using a chat account from standard chat client, which is also provided (Messenger, Google Talk, ICQ, Windows Live and AIM).

As with any mobile phone operating system Symbian, Windows Mobile and Android, BlackBerry OS regardless of their nature open and still could be added with various third-party applications development results

Not like the Bold and Curve 8320, BlackBerry 8520 not equipped with an internal GPS receiver. However, to simply monitor a specific location Gemini can rely on the operator LBS. The digital map was typical BlackBerry ready to be explored.

Multimedia
Gemini has a magnitude 2 MP camera, just like the Bold. It's just not equipped with LED flash and auto focus. Although it looks less bright, because light absorption was minimal, but the performance in detail the image can look perfect and smooth. Fig maximum that can be recorded is 1600x1200 pixels.

There was also a music player / video, Image / Pictue Viewer, Voice recording and a few games. Unfortunately, despite having an open operating system, you can not just insert a variety of third-party content to the Curve 8520.

Because of internal memory that carried this smartphone is small for its body size mobile phone. Namely, only amounted to 256 MB (shared). Meanwhile, applications from outside could only be installed to internal memory. Yet still supported with micro SD card slot with a capacity of 16GB maksmal. Just like the Tour and the Javelin.

Connectivity & Network
Problem connection, Gemini provides the means skyline. There are WiFi, Bluetooth and microUSB data cable. About the performance, each connection is capable of media work with the maximum. However, what's in a WiFi if you only use it for just fun to make friends. Overall, the connection point the phone is quite good and can work with the maximum.

As with most BlackBerry, Internet browsing capabilities of this smartphone using BlackBerry typical browser. For its network, the BlackBerry Gemini only supported EDGE network then only grade 10.

Battery
Gemini same batteries used with the Javelin and the Tour, its kind of lithium ion. Only, capacity powernya just a little different.

In Curve 8520 apply for 1150 mAh battery, lose bigger than the Tour that can reach 100 kilogram's. Once the filling can last 2 days with the use standr

Conclusion

(+) Pushmail, BIS / BES, WiFi, 3.5 mm audio slot, trackpad

(-) No 3G, no internal GPS, a QWERTY keypad seems tiny

Design
Indeed, striking changes which try to offer this handheld is on camera and 5MP resolution, while the first Onyx only 3.2 MP.

This is related to the implementation of the operating system most gress, released BlackBerry, the OS v6.0. Those who are curious, about what else is new Onyx offered this, please follow the following reviews.

As identical twins, of course, physical appearance Bold aka 9780 Onyx 2 is exactly the same as 9700 Onyx. This means that the texture of the body, the structure of the keypad, as well as laying the navigation panel (trackpad and softkey), connection ports and key enhancements were identical. When compared to the Bold 9000, Onyx construction is certainly smaller and compact.

What about the QWERTY keypad on the BlackBerry flagship Onyx 2 of this? Yes, there is no noticeable difference compared to 'his brother sulung'. Stay cozy, comfortable and certainly eases the process of typing a message (SMS) and Email.

Typical generation retained Bold Onyx 2 is loh. Just look at the orange peel texture on the back cover. Begtitu well as the mechanism to open the battery cover, remains the same with Onyx old. Namely, the model slide down instead of locking mechanism like other BlackBerry types.

Overall, the design is like a nut Bold 9780 halved by 9700. So, make an already accustomed to using the first or minimal Onyx aka Gemini Curve 8520, will not be awkward anymore on operate.
