What carrier?

8330 only works in the US on CDMA (the main 2 being VZW/Sprint)

8320 - Curve with WiFi no GPS with Camera
8310 - Curve with GPS no WiFi with Camera
8900 - Curve 2 with GPS with Camera with WiFi with Better screen and more memory

Of course, be advise that the 8330 is a CMDA device, so the OP would need to switch to a CDMA carrier. And if the OP is considering that, I would recommend the Tour 9630.

I just wanted to commend you on your choice to become a BB user- you won't regret it! I had the Curve before I got my Storm (which I also love) and it was an awesome phone.

Best of luck!

Ah well you have a decision.. You want gps or wifi? Are you buying new or used? There's a $150 difference from curve 8320 to 8900 new

8330 is the best, but you have TMO so get whatever they offer.

Since you're not using a data plan get the 8320 wifi BB. Maybe you can connect your old phone up to it via bluetooth and use it for a gps puck.
