Couple questions that I couldn't find as I serached thru this forum. I just traded in the Storm after one week for the Curve but still had some questions:
1) I had apps that I purchased from this site for my Storm but they couldn't transfer to my Curve. Am I stuck buying them again, even though I just purchased them last week.
2) Is there a keypad display that shows the letters that coincide with the number pad? for example, if I have to dial 800- COMCAST I don't know the letters/numbers etc.
3) The lights behind the keypad go off at a certain time, is there a way for them to stay lit longer?
4) Display goes black when I'm on the phone, can it stay dimly lit?
Great! Thanks so much. Now one more...is there an "off" button, like I had on my Treos? For example, when I'm done with the phone, rather than setting it down and the phone light going off in 10 seconds or so, just to be able to turn it off would be good.
There is of a sort. If you press and hold the button on the top of your phone, it will put it into Standby mode and immediately turn the backlight off.

You don't usually want to turn a BlackBerry off, because that stops you from getting email. But there's a power button on top if you really want to push it.
Also, I downloaded the Blackberry Manager and I think a backed up my contacts. But I tried to find a list of them on my computer and couldn't. On my old Treo all the contacts, addresses etc could be displayed; is it the same here?
Welcome to CB. A good vendor should switch apps for you at no charge, of if some reasonable time period has elapsed since the purchase a small fee. I even got a cross platform discount for Agendus when I switched from my Clie to the Curve.
