  The Blackberry Curve 8900 is true to its reviews. It has the weight of a feather but the functionality of your own little army. The menu key opens a plethora of applications which you can always customize via download, and the manual in pdf form helps you out if you get lost along the way. The Blackberry Desktop Manager allows for easy transference of files, music and pictures between your BBerry and laptop. Overall a great for functionality and of course..it’s a great phone LOL !!

  Thought about getting the Bold, but I’ve been with T-Mobile forever and I love their rates and their coverage so I got the 8900 instead and I’m loving it! I do love the Bold’s keyboard better and I do find myself wishing I had some 3G love at times, but that’s about it. I experimented with a G1 for a week but I returned it for many reasons, with one being that T-Mobile’s 3G was just not quick enough in my area. I’ve got Wi-Fi at work, home, and school so 90% of the time I’m happy with browser speed.

  You’ve surely heard about the 8900’s beautiful screen, and they’re not lying. It’s packing a 480×360 resolution and is definitely the best screen I’ve ever seen on a phone. It’s like a plasma screen with pictures showing up in HD. The camera is also sharp, and better than the Bold’s, and BlackBerry in general has done a great job of making it possible for their devices to be complete multimedia devices. I’ve got a 4GB MicroSD card in here that holds my most necessary songs for when I don’t feel like bringing along the iPod.

  Cons: loose keyboard, sometimes loose trackball, no Pandora support. In the end, T-Mobile’s great coverage and excellent customer support put this device over the top for me. I renewed my contract for just 1 year because I know in a year 3G support will be a lot better and EDGE is going to be completely obsolete..so that’s when I’ll pick up a 3G device. But until then, the 8900 is all I need.

  UPDATE: Pandora is now available for the 8900…yes!

  got this originally for a friend overseas but it called to me ever so seductively from the box! i had many times said that the bb curve original was my all time favorite phone,pda,blackberry, everything. it just made me happy to pick it up in comparison to some of the other phones i have tried. and it was love at first curve byte.

  i liked the bold when it was released but everything i didnt like was resolved. the curve is just the right size, wifi was quick and clean, its hot, cutting edge, fast, sharp, sophisticated and it will take your PDA woes away.

  actually i still want blackberry to put the “period” at the very least on the lower case so that you do not have to break stride for a stupid punctuation mark. that is the one thing I have noticed with samsung pdas and maybe other’s i am not remembering but they take some of the commonly used punctuations or special keys and make them easier in placement on the qwerty or by creating a new key or at least a lower case location. my only real criticism that is really silly. it doesnt take away an ounce of my love of this curve.

  I first ordered this product because I thought it was a skin that would cover the whole phone. However, upon receiving it, I found out otherwise. It is actually kind of like a sticker (except it comes off cleanly) and does not cover every part of the phone. It is actually from a company called decalgirl.com, also not made clear when I bought it (the skins run $6.99 on their website). The cool thing was that it also came with a free wallpaper (which was kind of hard to figure out since there were no instructions for it; I had to download the image to my computer and then drag and drop it onto the phone, though the phone’s software). It was brand new like they said and it has been nice so far. Just wish it had been better described.

  It didn’t fit my phone very well. I own the Blackberry Curve in Pale Gold so the slight gap between the decal and phone looked incredibly tacky. I would not recommend this item if your making the purchase as a protective cover since it lacks a screen cover (what you see on the screen is actually a background that you download to match the decal).

  I have a Blackberry Curve 8320 from T-Mobile. Got this case to help protect from bumps, knocks, keys in the pocket, etc.
  Never any problems with it coming off, and it has already saved the phone from a bad fall once in the first week.

  This product isn’t even staying on my phone. It’s beautiful on, makes my phone look new… but only if I can just keep it on without it immediately popping back off! (sighs)

  Well what can I say about this item…. It’s a blackberry curve battery, it’s blue, holds charge and works great. I recommend!

  I can’t believe At&t is asking $50.00 for this. This battery is definitely OEM. My curve is back in action…haven’t had a problem since I bought it.

  This product is great to have on standby in case your battery gives out and is way less expensive than buying a new Blackberry.

  The curve is a downgrade from previous models. WiFi and gps barely work. You need a very strong signal for wifi. No 3G. The most annoying part is that you will have to change all your chargers and adapters because they changed the connector. The old mini-USB cable was very handy because it is shared by many manufactures so it was very easy to find someone to help you out in case you run out of battery on the road. Not anymore. Do not waste your money.

  Blackberry does not honor their warranty. If you must get one, buy insurance. The USB connection breaks because of poor design. I have had two fail. One had insurance, the other did not. Blackberry claims that this does not happen and WILL charge you $180. There is no escalation. I got the device back with a broke screen and no battery (new one too). Poor design, poor software, and the worst customer support. You have been warned.
