It has come to the stage that i could do with a micro solder station for use of repairing circuit boards etc
does anyone on here have one they can recommend? Ed?
or know the best place to buy one?

It's good yes, if you don't know what you're doing you could do some damage with the hot air gun.

What he said
I leave my fine soldering to by suppliers/repair guys as its their problem if something messes up!
Charger ports on blackberrys are microusb yeh? Might be OK to do that as only 4 or 5 solder points
