actually I am as excited as anyone over here about the curve. I am not sure whether if I will keep my 8830 or not. I just haven't held a 8310 or 8330 in my hands and got the first hand experience with it so I am not sure.

I'm shocked! I've never seen this side of you...I thought you and your 8830 had a special thing going on?!

I've used the Rogers Curves and they are amazing to hold! I love typing on the keyboard.

You're a Rogers dealer, and haven't held a Pearl or Curve in your hands??! I find that hard to believe.

I actually work for The Source and its only been a week . I am surprised to see that they don't put curves on display. I don't think the source actually sells them in general. But I can be wrong. Nice catch pozi.. I shall inquire about this.

That I could deal with. I would have thought it would be more than the Pearl. But who knows, maybe the price of the Pearl will drop when the Curve is released. Now the problem will be trying to sell my Pearl along with hundreds of other people...ill probably be lucky to get $200 after the Curve is released.

Yeah I paid $499. A couple weeks after I bought it I got a brand new one on craigslist for $375. So I bought that and was going to return the first one to Best Buy because I paid $499. But the trackball on the one from craigalist sucked really bad so I just re-sold it for $25 less...but that one had a BB charging cradle which I kept so I basically didn't lose anything. That's the crappy thing about the trackball...they are really hit and miss.

man, you can really tell that CDMA in NA is a second class citizen to the manufacturers. RIM didn't even bother including the trackball for the CDMA curve!

Sure, because the GSM carrier cares about your health so much, they force you to exercise by touching your toes monthly.

Hey nice try there!!

However, if you go on telusmobility.com, you will notice that all new Blackberry phones have a Telus wallpaper.The Curve shown in this picture don't. + The phone does not have the Telus logo as all other phones shown on the website have. So it's clearly photoshoped.

You almost had me for a minute tho...
