Yeah great, you can take full motion video but you can't talk for 5 minutes without the sound cutting out.We may gripe about the lack of all these features with Blackberry but they seem to wait until it all works correctly before putting it out there. As an enterprise platform, Blackberry knows companies will pay for performance on the key features, on demand email and a solid voice line.
