I am picking up a Curve (Verizon) later this week so I figured i'd go ahead and join and say hello. I have been lurking for a week or two though, and i'd like to go ahead and say that the fact that there is such an incredible community here for BB owners definitely helped me go with the Curve over other non-BB phones.
Looking forward to learning more and hopefully eventually helping others. I've never been quite so excited about a new phone.. I have a feeling I will stick with RIM for quite a while after this. :)
