I was just wondering is it farily typical to due a battery pull every so oftein?
my 8330 had some significant lag and a battery pull took care of that, are these devices just like home PC's you just need to reset them every so oftein?
I just use the soft reset program. Works as good for me. Performing the physical act of a battery pull puts stress on the contacts. Not to mention, it's a pain in the arse to do it all the time.

In the old days, the three fingered salute to Microsoft (CTRL+ALT+DEL) worked wonders. Not much has changed, when the computer gets strange, reboot it and carry on happy.

Pulling the battery is the most effective, but it is a lot simpler to do it from the keyboard.
On the Curve, ALT+RShift+DEL. It takes 3 fingers, left thumb, right thumb and right index work best.
Some advocate doing it twice, the second reset is equivalent to a battery pull.
How often should you do it? If you have adaquate free memory it will not be needed. I rarely pull the battery on my fully functional Pearl. My test bed Curve has seen plenty of battery pulls and a few OS roll backs.
