8820 vs Curve 83xx
I just got the 8800 from T-Mobile a couple hours ago and realized that it doesn't have a camera compared to the Curve. I don't see anywhere on the site where I can cancel my order. Do you think if I took it to a T-Mobile location, they would be able to exchange it for me since they're the same price after rebate? I don't like how they don't offer the Curve in black and how the keys are rounded but I don't think I can go without a camera!! help!! please!!
I checked the prices on eBay too and it looks like the Curve is selling for a bit more than the 8800. The t-mobile site lists the 8800 MSRP as $50 more and that tricked me!!
I like the longer battery life on the 8820, but the curve has an advertised 2.0 Megapixel high quality camera that can take pictures good enough for prints and I really want that feature!!
-- Is the camera pretty much the only difference? More importantly, is the software better on one compared to the other?
-- Which would you rather have and why?

A lot of companies have a policy where if you dont like the phone you can bring it back and exchange it. Normally if you just upgraded or started a contract, bring back the phone and say you're not happy and want to try switching it out. I know Verizon does it, I'm pretty sure others would. You could make a few threats to change providers, that might help too.

You have 15 days to bring it back and the camera and slight size difference are the only things different about the phones. I chose the curve for the camera

I have both the 8300 Curve and the 8800, like them both, BUT, since my job requires that I go into extremely sensitive tech areas where you cannot take a camera or camera/phone (due to patent and research secrets) I use the 8800 more and carry a pearl without a sim card for taking pictures if need be.
