    but what the *bunny is wrong with nowadays communicators.. why can't be integrated wlan in every single phone? is it such an expensive technology? 4me this 1 is worthless.. no progress since older BB phones.. of course there is a niche with such a phone, like niche for nokiaE60 - without a camera, but for gods sake.. such a phone + wlan and progress progress.. gps, sat radio, breath taster, thermometer and other.. o just let's stay with old communicators/symbian phones..

      Daniel the reason why it keeps dropping calls is most likely due to teh fact that it is not being used on teh carrier it was programed for. Unfortunatly smart phones like BB, treos, and other Windows based devices they are intricatly programed through and through for their network. Your best bet is to contact a Tmobile tech person and go through and make sure all your connection settings are correct. How teh balckberry works if there is something wrong woth data connectiosn or things like that it will affect your ability to make calls with the device

        Gramaloke...RIM will soon launch an application allowing you to have Windows mobile on your BB; just the same as you can have the BB application on your Windows mobile. As RIM still has many loyal customers, and with Windows mobile gaining the market more and more, both players want to stay in the game just as much; the customers will have the choice: a BB with WM for different applications, when needed, OR a WM device with BB applications, again, when needed. Isn't this amazing...?

          Ummm, in response to the question below. BB's don't ever come with Windows.

                  adil, in answer to your question is yes it does have ad gps receiver as well does the Blackberry 8800.... but the blackberry gps works properly unlike certain other manufacturers and you dont get hit with massive GPRS charges.

                      it says that this phone has blackberry maps, does that mean that it has a built in GPS receiver like the 8800, or does it mean that it just has random maps like the 8100?

                        I have been waiting for this phone to be launched for over a year. Now that i finally have it i must say i am impressed. So far its been very reliable and call quality is very good. features are great and the only thing that i can think it lacks is a full motion video camera but the 2meg pix camera with flash is more that satisfactory. The thumb wheel took some getting used to after using a thumb wheel for years but now im used to it. All in all i am very impressed especially with the media player, the amazing LCD screen and the keyboard.

                          Just a reminder to all of you complaining about teh phones features...this phone isnt marketed towards you..it is marked to the worlds businesss ppl, ones who need to read their email in three seconds and dont need to listen to the radio or take pictures..in reality 3G isnt going to make a difference for the ppl who are actually using this phone. Many are still using old versions of blackberry's because OF the lack of crap stuffed inside them. If you want 3G, wifi, radio, 22mp camera then go buy a damn nokia, RIM wants you to thats why they created Blackberry connect for Nokia smartphones!
                          On another note I had the pearl and just switched to the curve and they are basically teh exact same phone the only real noticable difference is the keyboard, the camera seems a little less focused then the one on the pearl. However the speakerphone and audio level during video playback is much louder and clearer. If you are debating whether to get teh pearl or curve it is as simple as what keyboard style do you want. The curve will feel noticable in your pocket but still feels about teh same as the pearl in your hand.

                            Thanks to the feedback. Has anyone who has both the Blackberry Pearl and the Blackberry Curve 8300 noticed that the Curve is not as reliable as a phone to receive incoming calls? I have read that the Pearl is a very solid phone- do you think that the Curve matches up in that area? Thanks Emma

                              Unless you're getting a really good deal on this phone, opt for the E61i. It has a better battery life, wifi, 3G, and a wonderful keyboard. No click wheel, but it's world's better for business than a blackberry.

                                  Hi there I am debating whether to buy a Blackberry Curve or a Blackberry Pearl and I wondered if anyone knew if the Curve will be less reliable as a PHONE then the Pearl? I love the idea of a bigger screen but if there is more chance of a dropped call with the Curve I will get the Pearl. Thanks, Emma

                                      in response to the comment below - why would you want touchscreen and an fm radio? it is a phone/email device for business use. if i wanted an fm radio - i'd buy a radio. if i wanted a touchscreen device - i'd buy a pda. i agree on the lack of 3G support. but i have not found a device that is comparable in reliability for email than the Blackberry devices.

                                      Sreiously pathetic!!! No 3G!? No touchscreen. No FM radio!!!!
