Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐As a dummy user, when I ordered this book, I was expecting to receive something prepared to help a dummy user. This book is mainly written about BlackBerry 8500 (the older generation of Blackberry) and the features, pictures, and descriptions are for Model 8500, not Model 8900 which is the new one. It is true that the core engine of the software is the same, but, features and user interfaces are different. The author has compiled a lot of interesting information in this book, but they may be good for system developers or marketing people, not a guide for the users. For example, I tried to find something on how to set up BlackBerry ID Password and there was none. Without this information you cannot download any of the applications for use on BlackBerry. Instead there is a table of the abbreviations used in text messaging, such as LOL!If you are looking for something to walk you down the system set up and operation, you shouldn’t look here. Even if you consider the materials covered in this book is good, the organization and the presentation of this massive pile of information is not helpful. That’s why a gave only one star, it was solely because of my expectaions, which may be different from others. Otherwise, the writing style is very clear and easy to follow.

⭐I’ve always been a bit of a techno-geek. Perhaps it stemmed back to when we purchased Pong (the original version back in the 70s). But when I got my new Blackberry, I was a bit intimidated and confused on how to use a smartphone. This book was very good at covering many topics that helped me along. I was disappointed by the fact that it didn’t cover all the features of my Blackberry Curve 8350i, but it definitely helped me to get my Blackberry customized. I’m still learning to use it more efficiently, and hope that continued updates of this book will help others too.

⭐I have used the “dummies” series for years for everything canning to prayer. This edition is well written and easily understandable. I can easily find items of interest and jump past simpler instructions. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to enjoy reading a manual for once.

⭐I knew absolutely NOTHING about the BlackBerry when my daughter and son-in-law decided it was time to bring me into the 21st Century! With their tutoring, and this book, my early education is about at the 2nd grade level…I graduated kindergarten, but I am certainly NOT in high school yet. Lots to learn, and this book helps.

⭐Very good instruction manual for using the Blackberry Curve. The book has enabled me to do more with my phone in a simple manner. I would recommend this book for people who want to get the most from their phone in simple steps.

⭐Very helpful, in fact more info than I can put to good use. I have been able to do all the things I wanted to do on my BlackBerry even though I didn’t have the owner’s manual.

⭐Very easy to use with clear explanations. Worth purchasing if you are a Blackberry user and want to be sure you are suing all of its applications

⭐This is must for anybody that owns a Blackberry Curve. Simple step by step instructions. I will be sure and look at the same guide for any future Blackberry products I may own.

⭐Trying to find an instruction sheet for the Blackberry curve has been very trying indeed. Just as we were about to give up and bite the bullet for a more ‘modern’ phone (my wife is a creature of habit and does not cope well with change – smile) Amazon struck gold for us and found a retailer with an answer that solves everything. It took a long and patient wait. Thank you!

⭐Well put together

⭐I am Very pleased with My Order. Top of the range item meets all my requirments.Pronpt delivery, Arrived on time Value for money

⭐I thought that the blackberry would be too hard for me to grasp, but this book helped from page 1. worth every penny.

⭐Good but not as easy as the title suggests. I would certainly wish for a better index but that might be the dummy the title suggests
