Default Switch from 8330 to 8530?

Just got a replacement Curve 8330 a week ago.
What are your thoughts on swapping it for an 8530? I have about three weeks to take the 8330 back.

It does have more memory, supposedly better OS and WiFi, but I wish they made it a quad band world phone. If the $50 is worth it to you, then go for it.

I love my 8330, but the 8530 is better in everyway minus the flash. Do even think about it, just return it for the 8530.

8530 rocks, from a longtime 8330 owner.

Seems like natural and logical evolution for me... Not as the 8310 > 8520 I did :P

I am waiting for it to become available through sprint. This will be my first BB. I was disappointed to hear that it was not released to sprint on November 20. Now its changed to Q4 release.
