I am an at&t customer who is elgible for an upgrade. I had a 1st gen iphone and took it back within 4 days after I realized the battery life was just not going to work for me. I have since been using my trusty old Sony Ericsson W810i. I know that I want a BB as my next purchase, but I am really lost with the talk on here of all the phones coming out. I am not really even sure which ones will be available for at&t other than the Bold and Curve 8320 I think......anyway, I love this site, just found it about a week ago and I am on here everyday. I hope to find my next device soon and begin to learn about owning a BB.....It is intimidating though for newbs, when I start hearing about all the different OS's, UMA, CDMA, etc...I guess I shall learn slowly! Thanks.

Welcome to CB. The best place to start here is the "Read me first" thread. I am on wap, but I am sure someone will post it.

Welcome to CrackBerry.

I can appreciate how confusing it must be, the number of acronyms we use to abbreviate technical terms is substantial.

You can book mark a resource like:

Abbreviations and acronyms dictionary: Find definitions for over 4,219,000 abbreviations, acronyms, and initialisms

and refer to it as needed.

I spent a lot of time lurking on this forum before I was comfortable with my decision... Many great BB models to choose from. I am such a procrastinator.

Welcome to CrackBerry. You will get the hang of it quickly, most of the time you will start a new thead for your question.

What you are looking for is covered in a few instruction threads, CrackBerry 101 is a good starting place.

Here's the 101 link. I think the Curve has very good battery life. Mine lasts about a day of constant, and I mean constant use, lol
