Hey to be honest, if you're getting another curve around christmas, then make sure you stay on the news for the Javelin 8900 (next generation curve). we don't know when it will be released. there's rumours about it being very soon. but just thought u might want to know!
The BB definitely has a slight learning curve, but only because it's so SIMPLE to use (why do us techies always make everything so complicated?) Once you've realized how easy it is to use, you learn you can't live without it! :-)
