Default Need suggestions for my decision

Hi cb's , i need some advice / suggestions for myself . I am now currently using the Bold 9780 ( actually already 1 years ++ ) and thinking of changing to other bb device . I am planning to swap with the new Curve 9360 as the phone can run os7 and a newer device . Btw , the price here in my country is actually like this , my used bold 3 can swap 1 to 1 with the new curve 9360 so thats why im planning to change it to the Curve series . Am i doing the right decision ? I am eagerly wnna try the new OS7 feel and im not very familiar with curve keyboard as it is not the same with the Bold series . Help me pls !

I swapped an old Bold (9650) for a new Curve (9350) and don't regret it a bit. The Curve was a nice upgrade for no money.

The screen is the same, os 7 runs better than 6 did, and I like the Curves keyboard better. Battery life for me is the same as the Bold was.

The Curve is half the thickness and is better in the pocket too.

In my opinion, if you have the chance to switch for little or no money, jump on it. You won't regret it.

I went from a 9650 to a curve 9360. Its a nice phone, I've had no problems with it and os7.1 is a plus. I just regret leaving the bold for reasons like the size and keyboard. If i could do it over, I would find a way to get the 9900. Even though the $price$ was out there, bc im missing the bold feel "big time"!!!

If FM Radio seals the deal for you, Curve 9360 is the one. I have both the 9780 and 9360 and the keyboard on 9780 is better than on my 9360 IMO.

If you have the option available, get a Curve and try it out. If you end up not liking it, take it back.
