    You do realize you are asking a bunch of BlackBerry fanatics if a particular BB phone is good right? I love my 8320. Keeps me sane when I'm not near a PC to check email or read the current news.

    I love my 8330!! Sunkast is right about asking a bunch of Berry fanatics that question.

    Yes it is a good phone.

    Should you get it? That is entirely your call as it is entirely your money

    And if you are thinking of switching phones because it "looks cool" and
    your friend says it's great you might want to rethink the manner in
    which your make decisions

    I suggest you breeze thru the "Tutorial 101" found on this site for great detail on BB's.

    That is just awful advice. They don't "rock" for everyone. The OP has to
    use one and decide if it is the device they need and want.

    This kneejerk get a BlackBerry BS here has to stop.

    I get that. But just because the BlackBerry "looks" cool and just because
    your friend (who apparently likes everything) likes it does not mean it is the
    best fit for YOU. Try using your friends or testing one in a store.

    No one here, not even all of the BB fanboys, can tell you what is best for you.
    You're paying for it so you need to forget about our advice and make a
    considered decision on your own

    Take it down a notch!

    I seriously doubt that "Go get a Blackberry" is at all kneejerk!

    I would venture to say that the OP has already keyed their friends 'berry. And I am certain that if and when the OP goes to look a the phone they will handle it....before purchasing.

    And if I am wrong to venture or be certain, then so be it. Most people test drive the car before they buy it...if not then you get what you get and you don't through a fit!!

    Just chill already!!!

    I have the Curve 8320 and i only have good things to say about this phone. there is no "best" bb phone, it just depends what u need. The flagship of RIM is the Bold which is a great phone but some users have found that they like pearls or curves better. in fact, with the new Storm and Pearl flip, lots more choices

    u won't go wrong with a curve. But just for your info, RIM will be releasing the Javelin 8900 soon (end year? start of 2009?). It's basically RIM's next generation curve. Same size as the curve, but faster and prettier. look in crackberry.com for reviews of the phone. just thought i'd let you know about this new device. but as for release date, no one's sure exact when. only it's coming "very soon".
