Blackberry Bold vs. Curve 8900 - Calgarypuck Forums - The Unofficial Calgary Flames Fan Community

So I finally have to get a Blackberry for work purposes and am in between the Bold 9000 and the Curve 8900. I don't anticipate that I will be doing too much browsing and I am kind of torn between the two. Any CPers have any recommendations???

I dont know about the Bold, but I got the Curve and I love it for pretty much everything.

I have the curve and I love it. I didn't think I would do too much browsing so I didn't think I would miss the 3G, but now that I have it I do a fair bit of browsing and when I do I wish it was faster. Having said that if I had the choice again I would still pick the 8900 simply for the form factor... Not a big fan of how big the bold is.

The bold is my first berry and I love it.. Imo both phones are good. One thing bout the 8900 its a bit laggy compared to the bold when it comes to applications and such

Sounds like your on Rogers. I hear great things about the Bold and actually like the bigger size. I have a 8330 Curve through Telus and it is absolutely awesome. I'm not sure what similarities or differences the 8900 has over the 8330. Check out crackberry.com, they have pretty extensive forums on everything Blackberry.

Yeah, I was worried about he "bulkier" bold but I really almost preferred the size. I found the keypad much easier to use. I think I will be going with that. Thanks all!
