Default Currently what is the best BB, T-Mo is offering?
So I've had the Curve 8320 what seems to be forever now. Kept up with all the OS updates, but it seems to be running out of memory now as newer phones are coming out with larger on board memory. Which I would guess means some apps are coming in bigger sizes, this limits me from a lot! Now since I am with T-Mo, what would be the recommended best BB to get? This can be from T-Mo, or an unlocked version.

The 9700 is the best one. I liked the 8900 but T-Mo doesn't sell them anymore. But either way, the 9700 is the best one out there right now

Definitely the 9700. You'll love the trackpad too.

I have the Bold and I don't have any problems with memory or apps.

I will be able to upgrade next month. I know the 9700 is the best one out there. My only issue is upgrading to it, than t-mobile getting something newer and better in a couple months. Any confirmed info on new bb's coming out in the not so distant future?

I'd have to call T-Mo to see when I can upgrade. But just like Harry's concern, I don't want to end up getting something, and seeing a better one come out next. But knowing my luck that is what might just happen to me!

9700 is the best so far out by tmobile. If you don't plan on upgrading within the next couple months, its best to just wait.

9700 is the flagship BB for T-Mobile. If you don't want to fork out the money for the 9700, go with the 8520.

The 9700 is taking the cake with this one. They got rid of the 8900, so second best - and truly not nearly as nice - is the 8520.

9700 is the best for T-Mobile. You should get a T-Mobile branded one. Do not get an unlocked AT&T version, since you will not be able to get 3G on T-Mobile. The 3G bands that T-Mobile uses are different from the 3G bands that AT&T uses.

The 9700 is the best BlackBerry T-Mobile has. I have one and have never have lost calls, had the "hourglass" waiting to open an app, and have had good sound listening to calls and no problems with people hearing me.

Will the 9700 be able to take advantage of the 3G update that tmo is planning this year? Its purportedly faster than sprints 4G network

Without a doubt the 9700. I've had about 15 blackberries across all different carriers. This device beats them all by a mile. You won't be disappointed!
