A very enjoyable phone!
17 years ago
I upgraded to the curve 8900 from the first generation iPhone and couldn't be happier! Just to be clear though i loved my iPhone, however i am not a heavy application user so i didn't use the iphone to its full potential. When looking for a new phone since my upgrade pricing was available i was torn between the iPhone 3GS, Nokia e71x, Samsung Jack, and of course the curve 8900. The style of the curve and the jack were most appealing to me out of all the phones, but i really took a look at the software. I use my calendar and email the most, also many of the emails i deal with contain Microsoft Office files and PDFs so i needed a phone that could work well with those files. I really liked the e71x but i really needed something that meshed perfectly with Microsoft Office, especially outlook, and on the e71x it seemed like it would work but wasn't the primary goal of the phone. The Curve however was designed to work with office. As far as the Jack i just want a fan of the windows mobile on the device and i gave it up pretty quick. I was hesitant about the lack of 3g on the curve, but i am always around wifi since i am on campus all day (im a college student) and i always have my netbook with me should I need to use the internet a lot. And infact the Edge network is very zippy on the curve. However, my favorite feature on the curve (which may be on other phones now as well) is that the task list integrates into the calendar. For so long the task list on phones and PDAs was a separate application that you had to always check separate from your calendar. Now all the deadlines on your tasks show up in the calendar. Additionally the whole calendar setup on the curve is great with many options. There are other very nice features as well. The whole phone is very customizable with you being able to hide icons and create folders and so on. Also it handles music very well, i bought a memory card and just put my music from my iPhone onto the memory card and am just as happy. Anyway I love this phone and its hard to put down, and yes i like it more than my iPhone!

useful not so fun
15 years ago
I used this phone since I would like to be able to surf internet and receive/send emails wherever I go. That was the best option that I had that time since I did not want to go with the bulky huge first generation of BB bold. I am not into music and games so I am fine with the limited entertainment capabilities that BB has to offer. Bottom line BBM is the sole reason I stick with BB.
