    First time poster!

    Like the title says...

    I just bought my first BlackBerry!

    I ordered a used 8330 Curve. I'm a former iphone + iphone 3g user, and switched to verizon a few months ago (currently using the EnV2).

    Ok. so! what's next? I've made a short list of software I need to download (with help from these forums)

    but I want to know what are some of the awesome things i should do with my BB first! What can i do, what should i do, what shouldn't i do, anything! anything you guys can tell me :-)

    I intend to use the curve for messaging (a lot), emails, browsing, and calandar/planner. anything else is just gravy really. Thanks in advance!

    Jumping to Verizon was a great decision to make, the Curve is a wonderful phone, does most everything a phone needs to do plus more!

    Thanks for all the welcome! I'm excited, it comes in the mail today!!!!!

    I chose the 8330 because A) the 8900 isn't out for verizon yet (8930?) and B) i wanted a used one so I could get used to Black Berry and not spend as much money, in case it didn't fit with me (gasp!). I have read good things about the 8330 though, so yay! Thanks again, i'm sure i'll be back soon with questions!
