I don’t know what is worst, the phone or t-mobile service. There customer service is completely useless. Also, be very carefull with their billing. If they promise you nights and weekends make sure that it is in writting.

The curve is a downgrade from previous models. WiFi and gps barely work. You need a very strong signal for wifi. No 3G. The most annoying part is that you will have to change all your chargers and adapters because they changed the connector. The old mini-USB cable was very handy because it is shared by many manufactures so it was very easy to find someone to help you out in case you run out of battery on the road. Not anymore. Do not waste your money.

my contract was up at AT&T so I thought I’d save some cash on the monthly service, and get the newer 8900. First off, let me say, I already tried getting an iPhone, but was unable to deal with the lack of power email capabilities, and that I really love having a good keyboard. So I picked up my phone at tmobile, and was very specific about needing the “ENTERPRISE” data plan, which allows one to connect to a Blackberry Exchange Server at their corporation. After unsuccessfully syncing at work, I had to call the tmobile tech support (call #1), so they could tweak my unlimited data plan to allow the enterprise connection to take place. After that, my phone connected, but later locked up, with some “uncaught exception layout…” error. Wiped the blackberry, rebooted a couple times, on the phone with tmobile’s pda support, but gave up, and returned it… why?? because the keyboard sucks compared to the 8300 series, and after all said and done it was within $5-$7 of my ATT plan, why risk less coverage. Ok AT&T you win, I’ll stick around… for now!!!!!!!!! I will miss the wifi I enjoyed, and the better screen… maybe I need to get the bold!

Overall it is a great “Smartphone” and the best I’ve used thus far when it comes to stable, usable performance. I have, however, found it to have one serious flaw – there is something wrong with the ear speaker. In-call volume is so low as to render the phone fairly unusable except in very quiet environments. It is not an OS/Software issue (at least not after having tried 2 OS updates with no fix), but appears to be a physical problem related to the speaker (and I’m not the only one to have noticed this issue with the 8900). My only solution has been to use the speakerphone at full volume on all calls…..this works because the sound is projected both front and back of the unit when you use the speakerphone.

I bought a new 8900 from TMobile about a month ago. It worked fine until about three days ago but now the trackball (cursor) will not go up, only down. I called TMobile and they will not replace my phone with a new one, only a used one. If this is how you get treated after a month….
