The Bottom Line: The Blackberry Curve is the winning culmination of years of experience in spite of shortfalls!

Pros: camera with flash, applications, GPS, data

Cons: none that I can think of

The Bottom Line: Awesome gadget!

Review: I got the Curve 8310 for Christmas and it is the best phone/toy/computer I have ever owned. It has literally everything that I need in terms of phone service, games, news, and other applications. Phone: The quality of the calls is excellent, and the ...

Pros: Portable office, decent battery life, Rim server is smokin' fast, and the trackball is great!

Cons: Internet is sluggish compared to 3G devices and sometimes needs a reboot

The Bottom Line: Now that I have entered the mobile data world I will always own a Blackberry!

Review: This was my first step into the "mobile data world". Until now, I had always relied on arriving at a destination to communicate via email or view the web. I had a the belief that a cell phone was just to talk on...my view has changed! It's been 6 ...

Pros: Improved functionality and new features such as: camera, GPS, spell check for email.

Cons: Pricey, especially if you subscibe to monthly add on's. Look for free downloads for navigation.

The Bottom Line: A great gadget that keeps you organized, connected and entertained. A must have for any mobile business professional.

Review: I have upgraded my Blackberry 8700c to the new Blackberry Curve 8310 Smartphone. This gadget packs a whallop of functions (same basic set up with Phone, Email, Internet Browsers, Calendar, Address Book, Tasks) but with many upgrades and sleek styling ...

Pros: Looks great. Gets me my email where ever I am. Truly SMART!

Cons: So far, been unable to configure it as a bluetooth modem for my laptop.

The Bottom Line: Great phone but remember that you'll have pay for a data plan which is about $30 extra per month on top of your voice plan.

Review: It was time for an upgrade from my old Motorola Razr which was working fine. I couldn't pass up the upgrade deal from my carrier, AT&T. I really wanted the red but settled for the Titanium which was in stock at the Costco booth. As you can tell ...

Pros: Easy to use, (I'm 35 and don't use tons of gadgets)

Cons: Buttons are stuck

Review: This is the best phone I've ever had! I use the GPS to get around and it is an excellent one. I use it for my AOL and Yahoo email accounts and my husband has one that he uses for work and he loves it too! My only complaint is the buttons get stuck ...

Pros: Sleek, full keyboard, easy manueverability, good sound

Cons: No way to import email addresses

The Bottom Line: I love email more than I love talking on the phone. That makes THIS PDA a must have... it will not disappoint you.

Review: DISCLAIMER! This is not a technical review. There are plenty of ways to see the technological side of a Blackberry Curve 8310 Smartphone both here on epinions and elsewhere. I, on the other hand, am a simple end-user who is reviewing my ...

Pros: Great email application, no issues with the AT&T service, nice extras like the GPS.

Cons: Poor web browsing, inadequate voice dialing

The Bottom Line: Highly recommended, unless web browsing is a requirement.

Review: Let me start out by saying, I love my Blackberry and I can't imagine life without it now that I have constant access to email and phone. Email is by far the most important feature for me and if I were to rate the Blackberry on that feature alone, I ...

Pros: Awesome for email, easy to use, fast set up, one hand use, durable

Cons: Not great for viewing all websites

The Bottom Line: This unit is great for someone who is a heavy email user. If you will be doing alot of internet browsing then you may want to look at another device.

Review: I upgraded to the Blackberry 8310 after using my Motorola Razr for 2 years. I actually purchased a refurb through AT&T for about $40. It appeared brand new to me when it arrived and I’ve had no technical issues with it. It was immediately easy to use ...

Pros: Strong messaging, copy & paste plus spell checker.

Cons: Dated OS, weak gps, washed out screen, must purchase a blackberry plan.

The Bottom Line: Personal users may want to pass for something with more style, but this is a good phone for corporate users, especially if Blackberry is the corporate standard.

Review: I work for a company with a rather impulsive IT & Purchasing department. Recently, I requested a SIM card to go into my Samsung Blackjack II. The card came to me, all right -- inside the body of a RIM BlackBerry Curve 8310. I thought to try the Curve out ...
