Prior to a few months ago I had never owned a smart phone. I decided to get with the times and since my employer was providing a new cell phone I opted for the Blackberry Curve. It is aboslutely amazing how much this phone can do! I have my work email with me wherever I go, so I never miss anything important. Apps are amazing and being able to check everything from your bank balance to sports scores from anywhere is beyond convenient! I especially love Mlackberry Messanger. It allows me to keep people informed in a second and have free communications for everyone I know who owns a blackberry. Both of my children, one an IT Specialist and the second a college student bought the same phone and we can be in contact instantly and free anytime. I am definitely a huge fan of Blackberry. My only regret? Waiting so long to get one!

I've never had a phone give me error messages before, until now. This phone drives me crazy. Makes me miss my Moto RAZR phone. The only thing I like on this phone are the keys, because I can't stand touch screen phones. Ease of Use Too many bugs

amazing phone..used it for a really long with with absolutely no complications what so ever.. feels right in the hand.. easy to use.. worth the price..This is probably the best "narrow" full QWERTY keyboard you are going to ever find on a samrtphone..loaded with fun features and very easy to use..internet is also very easy to use

I was slow to get into the electronic age. I began with basic phones but as time passed I was getting left behind. I finally got this Blackberry and boom, I was right there with my friends. They even ask me advice on different apps. I love it.

I absolutely loved my Blackberry 8900 because it was so user friendly! I could access everything i need so easily, and fast. Personally i prefer a full keyboard phone that is easy and comfortable to type with and the blackberry 8900 does exactly that! I could even type wihtout looking cause i am so familiar with the keyboard. Blackberrys' are far more convient when it comes to accessing email, my emails come straight to my phone so i wont have to worry about missing any important notices or messages. Browsing the web can be a bit difficult because the trackball scrolling was slow and the screen isnt exactly big. Otherwise i recommend a Blackberry 8900 to anyone who is looking for an extremely convient phone, a daily texter, and someone who needs a phone that has a reliable email application! Blackberry 8900 is the way to go!

i have loved this phone, but my track ball has basically stopped working. i ordered a new one and took apart the phone and replaced it but it still doesnt work right. it rolls fine but i have to use a ton of force to get it to push down and select something.

This Blackberry Curve is an easy to use phone. It is easy to get use to and figure out. The formatting of it is very simple. Texting on it is also very easy. I have had mine for years and have had no problems with it. It is a very sturdy phone. I prefer the red, but thats just me. It has a good camera and comes with good software to download onto your computer so you can transfer pictures. Has a long battery life. I do not have the internet on it anymore but when i did it was pretty easy to use. Many websites would format nicely to the blackberry. The alarm on it is very convenient. The game brick breaker that comes on the phone is very fun and addictive. The only complaint that I have about it is the pocket dialing.

The flash is nice, great features, but 6 months in the backlight went out on the screen with no apparent damage. replacement was easy(a diy job if you have the torx 7). Also track ball buttons that requre pad replacement when the ball fails to click every 6 months. For me, this wasn't a big deal, as I can do the part swapping/cleaning myself. for someone who wants a no nonsense phone that will just work, get a blackberry with a track pad insteas of a track ball.

I have really liked Blackberry's since I got my very first Pearl years ago. This is by far the fastest one yet. It has the 3G service and more onboard memory. Also they got rid of the trackball and made it a trackpad instead. Im very happy with it. Next I want the Blackberry with the sliding touchscreen that still has the full qwerty keyboard. Love it!

This Blackberry is just fantastic. The 8900 from Rim is like a mini little laptop that you can use to do whatever you like. It's a very compact and portable processing machine that can do a lot of different tasks. The 8900 gots a great camera, amazing display resolution and great durability and build quality. There is really nothing to envy from other blackberrie models. I really love the trackball. It takes some getting used to, but it really does make navigation and moving around a lot easier on the phone. Although the 3G is missing, I never use it hence it does not effect me and I do not mind at all. Its got WIFI, internet browsing, blackberry network, it hosts a decent amount of applications as well too, although not as much as say an iphone4.
