    I just upgraded to a pearl 8130 with Verizon about two months ago so I can't upgrade again, but the pearl is too small for me and I really want a curve now, and I need to know what the cheapest one costs on the Verizon network

    Check the price you can buy a curve and sell your pearl for on ebay. That is probably going to be your best bet

    8330, Cell Phones Smartphones, Camera items on eBay.com

    Looks like about $319 plus shipping is the cheapest BIN on ebay.

    Your Pearl looks like the average used price is about $200.

    Consider also a craigslist post to off your Pearl and/or swap for a Curve......many people prefer the Pearl (I do not fall into this group)........and network your @$$ off online to try and find someone to swap with........

    Good Luck

    Best option is to find out how much you can sell the Pearl for. At that point, call verizon and see what they can offer the Curve for. Then check eBay and craigslist to see what your options are as well.

    Also, I notice that it is $149.99 on the Verizon website. If you don't mind getting a credit check run to add a line and then canceling after the 30 days, that may be a cheaper option. I'm not sure what the ETF fees are with Verizon, that is why I say may be cheaper.

    I would check Craigs List as well. I'd also put your phone up for sale too.

    Check the CrackBerry Marketplace, Amazon, eBay, Craigslist... just be wary and use caution and common sense when buying online!!
