On a Blackberry, even if you get the name after the call, the benefit is you don’t have to go to voicemail all the time to see if someone left you some information about who they are. Sure, you can go surf to some place or another to try to get the info, but, why not have it available quickly, without hassle? If you miss the call completely, it saves the info automatically and you can delete it if you wish.

If Blackberry owners want the same functionality as the Windows Mobile or Symbian platforms, they should contact RIM to open up the software for this capability. The cost is less than a couple cups of coffee per month. There is a 3 day free trial download. Use it before you buy it to see if it fits your needs.

Ronan, we appreciate your comment about the 3G Blackberry to be released, and we are working with RIM to insure this will work during ringing on networks that don’t block the data during a call, which is another factor to consider when activating a line with a carrier. ATT and TMobile both allow simultaneous voice and data.

We advise in our product description that a Blackberry is only Post-Call. We also advise that the service is only available in N.A. for now. We will deploy in the EU by year’s end and will start delivering international names within the next 60 – 90 days.
