Official Sprint Curve 8330 Coming Soon Thread

i'm simply trying to be more accurate about all this for the new, future and potential CB'ers on the CrackBerry forum...wouldn't want to confuse them and make them think , 'man, and to think iphone fans were idiots'. ;-)

...... the red 8330 is still "coming soon".. lots of ppl here are waiting for the red. Therefore, this 8330 thread is very much still valid for people waiting for the RED 8330 that has not been released yet.

If the CB staff were to do what you are suggesting.... then all of the threads would have to be closed or modified.

oh, and if you are so concerned on keeping this forum on track might I suggest not trying to sell items in your posts. i think the 8330 RED "coming soon" point that I made is a billion times more of a point than you using this very 8330 thread as ebay.com Oh and might I add... your very next post is about being "accurate" in what people should post here and how the CB staff should handle their duties when it comes to CBers posting. Great points you make!!

I never expect those right away, but come on, it's been a couple of weeks already. Maybe when the red one comes out...which obviously is not June 1 now.

I never received it either. And it's weird that going to Be the first to hear page STILL invites you to sign up for the email (rather than just taking you to a place you can buy the Curve).

And the BlackBerry® Curve™ | The New Smartphone That's Brilliant and Beautiful site run by RIM still shows a link saying the Curve is "coming soon" for Sprint -- and when you click on that link, it takes you to a section of the Sprint "Blackberry Solutions" page (Sprint - BlackBerry Smartphones: BlackBerry Solutions at Sprint) that features Blackberries -- but no Curve!

From all this, you'd think Sprint doesn't yet consider the Curve officially "launched." Maybe they are waiting for the red one, and then will do an official full-tilt marketing launch.

Why is anyone still posting on this thread? Just start a new one called 'The Official Red 8330 Coming soon...'. Just a thought. This would eliminate all the bickering about whether or not this is the correct thread to post you Red 8330 anxieties.

Perhaps you're right-it definitely seems odd. On one hand, I presume they saw a big demand over the last few weeks, but on the other hand they are still pushing Centros hard and the Instinct is due Any Day Now. Not that these three necessarily compete head-to-head for the same customers, but maybe they just have too much product to push at the same time. Given the Curve launch was delayed, it missed the prime market window.

Is your name Kevin? I don't think so. I've already handled the selling thing with Kevin...I'm not a complete stranger to him in the sense of being a CB member on this forum.

Hey, if anything; my previous post about the mini-'review' of the rubberized seidio holster...helps some people out in making a decision whether to purchase it or not.

[SoftwareJunkie]

i'm sure you arent a stranger to him. A lot of your posts have been deleted.

yup... biiiggggg help, thats why it was d-e-l-e-t-e-d. It would be of greater help to people to post about your rubber holster review in the appropriate section.

My name doesnt have to be Kevin to state obvious rules of a forum.

Stop bickering with everybody and just post about blaccccckkkberrrriiess. Gooood lord!

[Hi-Definition]

I'm not bickering at all; I'm simply replying to your content in your past few posts in this thread towards my recent posts in this same thread. Can I not do that? Other members, mods, you..can peruse the past few posts/pages and even see it for themselves.

Many members on this forum can attest that I'm not what you're labeling me as. There's only one other member that acted towards me, the unjustified way you are...and that was handled by Kevin.

My post for selling my holster in this thread was an innocent mistake, I didn't realize there was a 'marketplace' forum for that until after the fact.

waaa waaaaa waaa zzzZZZzZZZZZzz

btw, hopefully Kevin (you seem to love to use his name in all your posts, like you are bff's) handled it with you and the "one" other member (lmao at only one) in regards to how YOU treat people, including his very own mods. Yes, I have seen several posts with you being extremely rude to mods (Navi to name one). Such a victim arent you? Such the little victim. Everytime you have beef with a member here its funny how you were always the first one to make a post calling them out first. Make another post throwing your bff Kevins name around. It's also funny how all your posts act like Kevin is on your side (lmao again) when in fact you seem to be the one who loves to stir up all the drama. I'm sure Kevin has also noticed and notated you aren't the innocent one, scratch that, actually I know he has. Be well aware that WE ALL read these posts. Be aware that WE ALL know it was more than one person, and that you are definitely not the victim. Not going to name any names, but there have been many PM's about how you treat more than just "one" member here on CB. Like I said, we all read the same posts, and no matter how much you try to twist and turn things to make yourself look innocent, we all know its just not the truth based on your posts.

Stop instigating things with members and just seriously post about what this forum was made for. Make friends not enemies. It's old already.

still can't get them in Grand Rapids MI. They are all on backorder at corp stores and the affiliate stores can't even order them yet. by the time they make it here the red one will be released. Has anybody seen a pic of the red one yet. I wonder if its like the att color or the centro color red?

[tomvb2000]

Haven't see pic of the red one - only rumors of release date (now come and gone). I'd guess it'll be the AT&T red-hopefully not the Centro pink

[Hi-Definition]

Yeah, if Sprint's offering of the red Curve..is the same color as AT&T's red Curve; then that'd be nice. Because its that nice deep red color; not the tacky, kiddy red that Sprint's red Centro comes in.

I'm lovin' my Curve and all...BUT you know what...I won't ever get over the fact that us Sprint users JUST NOW got the Curve; and right around the corner...the BOLD is going to be released! It seems like the Curve has been out for 10 years on other carriers...and we just now got ours.

[ninfan]

10 years?? Wow, i'm extremely glad I don't feel time the way you do! It's a shame (most) people can never just be happy. If its not one thing its another. First it was the huge wait for the Sprint Curve, now that it's here i'm reading how it feels like its been out for 10 years on ATT!! oy vay!

Well, that's how I feel. In fact, I'm very happy with my Curve...I don't think I'd be posting on this forum; and I don't think I would have bought ALL the accessories that I have for my Curve...if I didn't like the darn thing. I would have switched back to another phone...away from BlackBerry; and away from the Curve in particular. Once again...yes; that's how I feel...nothing wrong in stating the FACTS and OBVIOUS that yes; Sprint was long overdue in FINALLY getting the Curve in our hands.

It's reality; deal with it.
