BlackBerry 8330 Curve / Reviews

I had a Palm Treo 650 before I got the BB Curve. All the hype and a good talking salesperson convinced me to get the Curve 8330. I must say after having this Curve for the past 15 months, i should have stayed with the Palm and upgraded to the Treo 750. The BB web browser is so slow, and using the navigator, forget it. By the time the navigator gets the route, you are already at your destination.One thing that is real irritating is the fact, that if the battery dies the radio takes forever to restart, up to a half hour after plugging in the charger. The trackball is another issue. When I bought this phone, i didn't even make it out of the store before the trackball quit. They swapped the phone, and the trackball has quit again. From what I hear this is a common problem, to the point that they have changed the phone to a new button design. Blackberry messenger is a nice feature, except that no one that I know uses this feature so to me it is a useless feature
