 The best phone I have ever owned. HANDS DOWN. November 20, 2009

I have owned this Curve for TWO FULL YEARS. It has another SOLID TWO years plus of life left in it.
Quite frankly, this has been the best phone (not to mention the very first PDA I've bought) that has served me very well since 2007.
Reading the reviews below me, there are a whole lot of negative reviews, and I actually understand why people have had such a hard time with this phone. This is a smart phone; it's kind of like a computer. You NEED to update the software (Operating System) on this phone in order for it to function properly, much like how Windows XP/Vista/7 or the MAC OS's periodically have fixes they suggest you download and set up.
However, it's hard for people to know when to update their OS, and the solution is simple. Google. A good website [...]. They literally have ALL the information, OS updates, and features posted on that site. During the first 4 months I've had the Curve, I had problems left and right. The phone would freeze all of a sudden with that eternally spinning hour glass, or sometimes it would just shut off by itself, other times applications just would not work.
The fix was simple: update the OS, do some research on the internet, and don't trust the tech support from whatever carrier you're using, b/c they're just as lost as you are. The original OS on the Curve was a 4.2 version; the buggiest of all. ALL you needed to do to get your Curve running PERFECTLY was to update it to 4.5. Ever since I did that, this phone was fail-proof.
I have used this phone everyday for two years. I've made regular calls, Wifi calls, browsed the internet, downloaded many useful applications, took this phone with me to four different countries, dropped this phone on carpet, concrete, plastic tables, and on one occasion, a steel wall. I've taken this phone with me during my time in the Marine Corps when I was driving tactical vehicles around. This phone has survived a 6' drop from the driver's side door of a Oshkosh MTVR onto hardened dirt on the grounds of Ft. Knox.
I've used this phone through the heat, humidity, rain and freezing cold.
This phone is still in my pocket, ready to go at a moment's notice. Everyone's experiences and reviews may differ from one another, but for me, this phone is good to go.
Once you have updated the OS, this phone will serve you well.
Problemas con la cuenta Blackberry October 27, 2009

El telefono que llego en la caja es un telefono reconstruido segun los especialistas tecnicos en blackberry. La telefonia DIGITEL asigno un número, pero se bloqueo la cuenta Blackberry, debido al aparato. Conparando el telefono con un modelo original se pueden apreciar claramente las diferencias.

this is my first "smart phone" and i love this thing. since it's my first one i cant compare it to anything so i dont really know what i'm missing but i do know it does everything i want it to. first there is the copy/paste feature which is very simple but if it wasn't there it would suck, then mp3's which you can set as ring tones for free, emails/texting with the qwerty keyboard is awesome, internet is sweet, games, pictures are very clear (but watch out for pocket lint on the lens(no protector over it)), apps, oh yeah and it's a phone. the bad is it's kind of slow, dont get me wrong it's still pretty quick, but the upgrade to the 8900 is a lot faster, the built in map sucks but you can download google maps which is about the best application ever, and video recorder is crap (nothing good to say about that). i would highly recommend this phone and i could never go back to a regular basic cell phone again.
