Thanks Coraya :). I was very impressed with the battery life of BB Curve. It lated for a good 16 hours based on mad heavy usage so I'm very satisfied. I'll definitely keep in mind on charging it correctly. Makes sense.

When you're out in the open the coverage is great, but say you go inside a building with tad thick ceilings and you lose reception all together. I switched over to Sprint. It's the 3rd largest wireless carrier in the country and is the only one that offers unlimited data so I can jam to Pandora without worrying about using Data. I got a week to test it out to see if it's to my liking. It's definitely better than sprint. T-Mobile doesn't have great 3G...well never seen it go into 3G mode to be quite honest.
I don't live in the actual city. I work in Old Town Alexandria and live in Lorton, which is located in the farthest southern part of Fairfax County. Reception is okay, but 4G and 3G is usually non existent there on T-Mobile.
I'm pretty sure I'll laugh about it some time down the rode lol. I tried out the Blackberry Torch and I wasn't too impressed by the keyboard it was hard to type on so I stuck with Curve. I might decide to go over to a Bold in the near future, but in the mean time I'm in love with the Curve series.
I agree ... the keyboard isn't the Torch's strong point, other than the fact that it has one withe a large display. It's decent enough and better than other sliders, but nowhere near as good as other BB's. Nothing at all wrong with the Curves. ;)
I honestly agree that it's better than most sliders. I loved how the touch screen was really responsive, but like you said, if I get frustrated and toss the phone, I could do some serious damage to it. I mean....look at my Android lol.
The Curve is definitely the most user-resistant BlackBerry (in terms of misuse!). My friend accidentally drove over her 9330 with a Land Rover and nothing happened to it! She has dropped it in lakes, rivers, toilets, ect. and it works perfectly. I also love the Torch series, if only they weren't AT&T only... My favorite is the Bold series. I had the 9650 and now the 9930 and they are both wonderful phones! The keyboard is perfectly spaced and sized.
Welcome to BlackBerry! :D
That is the great thing about Blackberry - variety. iPhone is iPhone and most Android phones are similar too. With BB you can have the Curve, Torch, or Bold depending on your taste and needs.
If you are going to smash your phone, make sure you dispose it correctly. You could even sell the parts on ebay. You could also drop it at any of those places where they recycle batteries and electronics.
Just my �2.
Enjoy your new phone.
