| Editorial Reviews: Amazon.com Product Description Adding a fashionable touch to Research in Motion's formidable arsenal of telephonic, PIM, and media tools, the BlackBerry 8320 Curve for T-Mobile is also the smallest, lightest BlackBerry phone that includes a full QWERTY keyboard. This amalgam of the svelte BlackBerry Pearl and the more business-oriented 8800 combines RIM's long-valued corporate email and messaging platform with a host of advanced multimedia features, including a 2-megapixel camera and stereo Bluetooth (for listening to music via wireless headphones). In addition to its quad-band GSM and EDGE connectivity, it also offers Wi-Fi connectivity for access to the Internet and email as well as access to T-Mobile's Hotspot @Home service. This version comes in titanium, but it's also available in pale gold.
With T-Mobile HotSpot @Home service, you'll effortlessly transition between Wi-Fi calling and T-Mobile's wireless network while you talk. You can get unlimited nationwide calls over Wi-Fi--at home via your wireless router or at any U.S. T-Mobile HotSpot. You can also use the HotSpot @Home service via most open, or unsecured, wireless routers, as well as any secured wireless router for which you have access to the password from the owner. This phone is compatible with the 802.11b/g Wi-Fi standard as well as the following wireless security protocols: WEP, WPA (TKIP), WPA2 (AES-CCMP), LEAP, PEAP, EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, EAP-FAST, EAP-SIM, EAP-AKA. Whenever you're not using a Wi-Fi network, the Curve works just like a regular mobile phone, using your Whenever Minutes under your T-Mobile voice plan. This phone also includes compatibility with T-Mobile's myFaves service, which allows you to call up to five of your most common contacts--on any network, even landlines--without using any of your minutes. Learn more about myFaves from T-Mobile. Staying Connected Browse the web with the integrated, full-featured browser, which quickly and efficiently displays HTML pages as well as enables you to set up RSS feeds to stay connected to up-to-the-minute news and blog posts. And keep up with your contacts using a variety of instant message (IM) networks, including the integrated Blackberry Messenger as well as downloadable clients for Google Talk, Yahoo! Messenger, and Lotus Sametime. For corporate users, the Curve delivers all the enterprise email and messaging capabilities you've come to expect. It's supported on BlackBerry Internet Service, giving you access to up to 10 work or personal email accounts (including most popular ISP email accounts), as well as BlackBerry Enterprise Server, enabling advanced security and IT administration within IBM Lotus Domino, Microsoft Exchange and Novell GroupWise environments. Phone Features
You can snap vivid photos (though no video) using the 2-megapixel camera on the back of the Curve, which also features a 5x digital zoom, built-in flash, self-portrait mirror and full screen viewfinder. It can capture images in up to three picture quality and size resolutions that can be shared instantly by email, MMS or BlackBerry Messenger, or even uploaded to your Flickr account with the Yahoo! Go service. Photos can also be immediately set as a unique caller ID or Home Screen image. You can edit photos and create albums within the Curve using the PhotoSuite application. Pictures can be cropped, rotated and straightened, and flaws can be fixed by removing redeye or changing the brightness, contrast, and saturation levels. Listen to your favorite music and watch downloaded videos using the included stereo headset, or use an optional wireless headphone thanks to the Curve's support for the Bluetooth stereo audio profile (A2DP/AVRCP). The Curve is compatible with a wide variety of file formats, including MP3, WMA and AAC/AAC+/eAAC+ audio and WMV, MPEG4 and H.263 video. Dedicated volume controls are conveniently located on the side of the handset. With the Voice-Activated Dialing (VAD) feature, you can initiate a call just by telling the Curve who to call from your contact list--either via the integrated speakerphone or using an optional Bluetooth wireless headset. Other advanced phone features include advanced sound technology that cancels out background noise and echo, dedicated volume and mute keys, and the ability to customize the Curve with polyphonic and MP3 ringtones.

The best smart phone in today's market August 29, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful Folks, I have had many smart phones till now - from Nokia's N series, I-phone and finally the Blackberry. This is the best smart phone among the lot. I'm travelling consultant and have to depend largely on the "on-road" functionality of the phone. Its been 3 months that I have used this phone. I have no complaints till now. Key features: > Sleek Design > Awesome speaker phone > Great internet/ email capabilities (QWERY keyoboard is so easy to type) > Great Blackberry community online > Decent battery life (compared to other smart phones) I'm very picky when it comes to cellphone but this one has really worked well for me Burned by T-Mobile, dishonest lying company!!! August 29, 2008 0 out of 7 found this review helpful This is not a review for the phone which is probably great. This is a rant about T-Mobile. T-Mobile had lied to me when I was going to the Carribean with my Black Berry. The Representative had told me that I would be charged according to the data used and instead signed me up for BB International Roaming, which is $19.99. The service had never worked, I wasn't able to recieve or send email, but this is not what this is about. Four months later I had opened a bill, which I usually don't do since the bill is paid automatically every month, and discovered that I am being charged $19.99 for the past 4 months. Manager at T-Mobile insisted that there's nothing that they can do regardless of the fact that I am being charged for the service that never been used. The Manager did not even attempt to accomodate me in any way, no partial credit offer, not even for one month, not even free text messages for next month. T-Mobile is out there to take advantage of you. They take no responsibility for lying to their customers and charging them for services not provided. Avoid T-Mobile Does what I need, when I need August 22, 2008 Got this a little over a month ago. Everything is working as advertised. Upgraded the OS and the Software and have been able to navigate through everything I have needed. I would HIGHLY suggest a case for this item as it scratches if dropped (learned the hard way twice) - as it should. Had a problem with the install of my MicroSD card at first, but have figured it out since then. Awful T-Mobile customer service, very good phone August 11, 2008 0 out of 4 found this review helpful I've had the Curve 8320 for 10 months. A month ago, the USB port failed - the phone wouldn't charge or connect to the PC, and I could see one of the wires on the USB sticking out. I called T-Mobile for replacement, only to find out that their "policy" is to call from a different phone regardless of the problem. I did not have access to a different phone, and the problem was obvious. After two hour of waiting and then talking in circles with T-Mobile's customer support they would not let me on to RIM's tech support - they would not make an exception from their policy to use a different phone regardless of the problem. Since I didn't have access to a second phone, their advise was to go to a customer center and call them from there. I did not call them back. I have no time for hours of resetting the phone and "troubleshooting" when the problem is evident. This is not the first time I have gotten similar treatment from T-Mobile. My Blackberry 8700G broke too, and they could not fix the problem, yet charged me $100 for "water damage". That's when I bought the Curve. I pay several hundred dollars each month for the privilege of using T-Mobile - at least 3x more than I pay for cable TV, and my cable company has 10x better service, including visits to my home when there are problems. I know the other phone cos are far from perfect - but after such total lack of service and respect I simply have to go elsewhere. Not for MAC users August 7, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful Though the phone has impressive features, its one major drawback is lack of MAC compatability. This phone replaced my sidekick, and is really a step up when compared to that. The Curve is very light and comfortable, especially when compared to the brick that the sidekick 3 was. It also has more features and a better screen. Granted, BB did not advertise compatability with MAC, however, there are several softwares that are supposed to support it--including one available at the BB website. I tried that software and was utterly disappointed. The calendar would not sync properly, nor would anything else. So, even though my blackberry tracks meetings and what not, I cannot sync it with my MAC. No one wants to enter meetings in two places or not have a back up of the BB on the computer. But, if you are a mac person, this is what is going to happen. Had I waited, I would have probably gone with the new Iphone. Of course, if you are window based, this phone will be perfect.
