    I just got my CURVE yesterday and ditched my RAZR, loving it already except i got a few questions.

    (1) Can a sprint store switch my contacts over or am I about to spend the week doing this?
    (2) Do my RAZR chargers work with the CURVE so I don't have to go by a new car charger? (I just want to make sure I don't blow it up)

    Any other advice for a new user would be great.

    1. You should be able to have Sprint tranfer your contacts. Most carriers don't charge for this service.

    2.I don't think you'll be able to. I think you'll have to pony up and buy the new car charger.

    1) The store should be able to do that for you. They might charge you though, I know Verizon charges $10 to transfer phonebooks but that's only because they're greedy a**holes.

    2) They should work since they are both miniUSB, but you should make sure the voltage and amperage are compatible. It's always best to go with OEM chargers that are made for that specific device. Any other way and you're voiding your warranty. Just a word of caution!

    Welcome to the family. I had problems switching my contacts over and had to go to sprint and have them do it for me. There was no charge for this, BUT only phone numbers were transfered, not addresses, emails addresses or additional information you may have had stored under each contact. So I still had to go into outlook and add the additional information which took several hours. It was worth it, I love my curve!!!

    Install the Desktop Manager on your PC and it will let you sync your contact, calendar, and/or task from Outlook to your BlackBerry.

    Welcome Brad, I only found this site like a week ago and I'm already addicted!
    Since I dont have sprint idk about you being able to transfer your contacts automatically.
    Since the moto razr charger is miniUSB just like the BB's charging port, it should fit just fine, but charging-wise i do agree with Marine cuz u do wanna make sure that the voltages and current are compatible with the bb, cuz if not you dont wanna fry your bb's battery
