hey,

i was thinking the same thing recently and for me it came down to this.... I have come from a curve 8900 and i find the keyboard on the bold much easier to type on. so that is a negative for the curve in my opinion. however the new curve can run os7. so thats a plus.

so basically if you can live with the curve keyboard i say its a good upgrade, other wise stick with the bold, the specs are almost identical. however if you need to add cash on top of selling your bold i would not do it if you have to pay any more than like $80

Yeah , thinking about that too tho . Im okay with the Curve keyboard ( comparing to the bold close-knit keypads ) but , the bb buton , call key is it the same like the Curve 8520 ? I dont like it anyways . But , im eagerly to try the new Curve because it runs os7 , better specs , higher mhz etc . Just some of the hardware issue tho

P/s ; I dont think i have to topup a few couple of bucks just to swap my Bold to the new Curve 9360 cause the price here is about the same , i can find it cheaper . ( I sold mine and get a curve just like 1 to 1 swap )

if its an equal swap i think its a good way to get os7. i dont think the 625 mhz vs 800 will be that much of a difference. not sure about the buttons my 89-- were similar to the bold

Yeah well maybe im getting it soon , still thinking about it . I mean the call , bb button , back button . The bold got that clicking feel if you knw what i mean , comparing to my friends curve , there are likely not like a button at their call , end call bb button , its like a straight cover pad for the button or something , idk how to explain this ..
