    So. Does this mean you're going to change your username to CurvyRob??

    And you should be ale to switch over your apps via DM.

    I was just thinking that too, but curvyrob sounds a little...hrmm, feminine I guess? I'm really gonna have to come up with something good aren't I!

    do you think I have to contact the software manufacturer or will i be able to use the same registration codes?

    Thanks again
    Rob

    *edit: am I able to change my user name or do I have to set up a whole new account?*

    I would think you'd have to contact the software company to transfer the license since the PIN will be different.

    Yeah a little femme
    I'm not sure if you can change your username.. I would check around in the edit profile section here.

    You can try the same reg codes, but I think you may have to conact the software company, as it's true.. your PIN is different now. I'm not real familiar with Bell as a carrier, so...

    Your username will forever remind you where you came from lol. Have fun with your new Curve!

    I have to admit I've thought of getting an 8330 as well even though I really have no complaints about the Pearl. It's hard though when I see my wife's Curve sitting around - makes me think about switching all the time. But I've decided I'll ride it out and wait for the 9000 series to arrive.

    hey blackberry guy, thats a good idea...I was thinking about doing the same as well. for some reason I just decided to go with the curve, and not let myself get lured into the bold frenzy! hopefuly my will power is strong enough!

    I'm on the edge re: going to the curve! I really have no probs with my pearl. The slightly larger screen is nice but I just don't know.

    Pearl has smaller screen and larger keys.

    Curve has larger screen and smaller keys!

    When I tried the curve I kept hitting multiple keys @ the same time.... Bummer! But that was just in the store.

    Speaking of feminine!

    Curve, pearl.... Vs javelin, bold, and thunder.

    Think the guys had a little more say in naming this time?

    I would think that you would get use to the keys after a while! If I had the money to go from my Pearl to a Curve, I definitely would!!
