JKOTR reviews the BlackBerry Style
JKOTR reviews the BlackBerry Style which looks quite funky. "The Style is very thin for a flip phone and fits nicely in the hand for operation. It’s small and very light compared to most smartphones, and is the first phone I’ve used in quite a while that’s actually pleasing to hold.
