Black Berry Curve

[yogi08]

Anyone use a black berry curve? I got mine on my main phone instead of business bs phone, decided to I want to change everything. Anyone know any fun **** to put on it game wise? I have verizon. Anything to make it faster... blah blah blah. Any suggestions thanks haha. *Im sure ill get flamed for getting a curve :rolleyes:

[SlowsterCivy]

Fixing to go to verizon wireless...to gets me a blackberry curve :)

[AnthonyF]

The curve isnt a bad phone, just too small for my liking. I liked the Generation before the curve.

[Tiff-O-Bitties]

I have the Pearl and HATE IT!!! I think I just got a disfunctional one or something, but it freezes up on me all the time, stops working, takes 2 DAMN DAYS to load back up and then deletes my call logs and messages... GRR!

[SlowsterCivy]

In my opinion i think so. I want the bigger one for the bigger screen! :D

[blaknoize]

arent they the same only one is small and one is big....:thinking: And a few other options that come on the Curve. But I'm talkin bout the original one... with the camera vertical not horizontal, those are POS's and freeze, like an above mentioned one.

U can find the classic at http://www.letstalk.com

[twinj]

Make sure you get an blackberry thats on the 3G network. The only way I could think of speeding it up. This year has been nothing but cellphone problems
1.Pearl-Very great phone Only reason I got rid of it cause I got thrown in a pool
2.Dash-Started to freezing up and getting insanely Hot
3.Curve-Dropped it
4.iPhone- Starting to have problems out of it.

[blaknoize]

AT&T :goodjob: I hate verizonHater I work for Verizon, but I hate contract phones in general.

[twinj]

I am just saying for the speed. The OP wants speed so I mentioned 3G

[eViLMunkey]

I had problem w/ verizon from a like 6 years ago

[SlowsterCivy]

Before I up and buy a Black Berry Curve 8330. Does anyone have this model? Does it HAVE speaker phone?

[yogi08]

it has speaker phone and its kinda loud. my cat figured out how to turn it on and ironically someone was on the phone with me when my cat decided to pounce on it. hm. its a great phone, really... its never "slow" at all... i also delete my cookies and **** from the internet though.

And since you are at verizon, do they carry the pink 8330 in the store?? its the one with the wide screen...they've got it online.

[yogi08]

Cool. How much are the 8330's Joey with 2 yr contracts? I'm Tmobile at the moment.

I was verizon wireless when it bought out cellular one, I didn't stay with verizon bc it was still new...and had a LOT of annoyances, so i left, but now I want back, cause the reception is pimp **** compared to tmobile.

[yogi08]

Right now its 99.99 (with the rebate). I havent yet lost signal with my blackberry. I was at our dirtbike track yesterday and had 4/5 bars of signal haha. and its right by swamps and shat. Wasnt it 2002 when verizon bought cingular one? Thats when i got my first cellphone... when cingular one was over by blockbuster. IT was that big ass house phone lookin **** by nokia though, nothin special. I was in 6th grade and parents just wanted a way to reach me since ive never been one to sit still very long ahahah. Go with verizon dammit!

from what i was told ya

[SlowsterCivy]

Ok I am hearing you have to have a speical plan to get the black berry curve at verizon..for the cheap 99 dollar price after rebate? True or false?

[yogi08]

special plan? hmm didnt know that. i already have a plan. im on a family plan but that doesnt have shat to do with it.

[Evil Goat]

$29/mo data plan for the blackberry's...on top of your regular plan...and yes they should have pinks curves in the store, but will run you an extra $20

atleast it did my wife, but were preferred/vip customers, so her pink curve only cost us $4 and some change....now keep in mind i havent sat down to actually look at the plan online, i usually just go with whatever the sales person says and then tweak it when i get home online...just havent sat down to do it, so whether or not it is required to carry the data plan i dont know

Fiance looked at that one but he went with the XV6800.

[SlowsterCivy]

Getting pissed. I get a texted me..it shows I did..then i go in my messages...check to see..and it shows up as nothing. Yet my red light is blinking telling me I have one, and at the top of my screen it's telling me i have one, when i check..nothing there.

You don't want a small PDA, the pearl is an answer to a solution for people who didn't think it out.
You want a big screen and keys so you can get the job done on your PDA/blackberry. If you want a small PDA, get a phone.

My ATT Tilt> Curve but will probably jump to the 3G Iphone soon.

I could be wrong. But I think most people that have the pearl probably have it bc it came out BEFORE the curve..and they either didn't want to wait, or maybe they thought they wouldn't put one out with a big screen on it.

Yes it did come out first and it was the first BB to have a camera I believe. I went shopping for BBs and the Pearl was "cute" but simply was not as functional as a normal BB due to size.

I am very happy with my ATT Tilt but will move to an I-phone in a couple months. I also use my Nokia 9300 sometimes.

Everyone in here should visit maybe HowardForums or other cell phone forums before they buy a phone. It always pays to do the research :)

Dang. What memory card are you using? I got mine from Verizon Wireless. It was 20 or 30 bucks I think.
I haven't had a problem with my phone freezing at all. Aside from when I had to pull the battery out b/c I couldn't hear anyone that called me. Had to call *228 that fixed the problem..hopefully it won't happen again, or I'll be getting another one. :)

[yogi08]

4gb one. got it at office max. im doin *228 now. ill let u kno how it goes.

[yogi08]

nope didnt work. but it dont freeze... now it just exits program.

oh i got sumthin to but 28's on now. fawk with it! ahahaha. real talk tho charleene

Hopefully you insured your phone. I insure all mine. No way in hell I'll get stuck paying for full price again ever for the same phone!!

Cool. I wouldn't be interested though. Unless they made it in pink. OR they had a upgraded model of that because I don't think that phone will be a huge hit after they put out the Curves..and the others with the full keyboard. But I of course could be a wronfg.

[yogi08]

ya i got insurance. haa i not stoopid or nething gah!ajaj

are u comin out to our meet tho?
