I bought a BlackBerry Curve 8900 -- a TMobile-branded phone -- because it supposedly worked with both the AT&T and TMobile service networks. After spending 2 hours at the AT&T store, the manager discovered that although the TMobile Blackberry Curve 8900 UNLOCKED phone does in fact work with At&T's phone, text, email, etc. features, it will NOT work with AT&T's tethering feature (where the phone connects to a laptop and is used as a modem). Numerous AT&T technology support representatives confirmed this fact throughout the store manager's installation efforts. Tethering was one of the main reasons why I wanted this specific phone. Bottom line is that in order to use AT&T's tethering service, I had to either buy a separate AT&T modem or sign a 2 year contract and get the modem for free. Annoying to say the least....Read full review
i think this is the best choice for someone like me who doesn´t have enough money to get a cellphone like the onyx 9700 or Torch 9800 ... This phone has an excellent screen resolution, has a great 3.2 Mp camera with a nice Flash light. It has a great size, nice battery autonomy, totally functional !!! If somebody has a doubt about buying Blackberry 8520 or bold 9000 ... this option is the best the only thing it doesn´t has is the CDMA(3G) technology but still works very very good.
I love my Blackberry Curve 8900. It works really good; however, I dislike the fact that I cannot use all the features in my country since my service provider doesn't allow it yet. I understand Blackberries are unique since all the features in other phones can be used once they are unlocked. Nevertheless, the basic features like making calls, answering calls, wifi, texting etc; can be used so I can work with those for now but I hate that I cannot download my emails etc as with other cellphones I have had. And the msn messaging also cannot be used unless I go directly to the internet.
I love this phone. This is my first blackberry and I made the right decision by picking this phone. The curve 8900 is sleek and stylish and was within my price range.I also wanted to get away from touchscreen phones so this was the best choice. The camera and sound quality are great. I can hear people very clearly even on speakerphone. This phone has wi-fi, which is a plus. Suprisingly, the bb8900 battery life is great. I don't have to charge it everyday. I would recommend a blackberry to anyone, but most of my friends already have one. I really don't have any complaints about this phone.
I've had this phone for about 2 months and really like it. I use it along with my iphone 3gs. I like the internet browsing and text entry of iphone, but don't like the phone features. I end up using the blackberry whenever I have to use prepaid phone cards to make international calls. The iphone's touch pad doesn't send the right touch tones, so I always have to go through the operator. The blackberry doesn't have that problem. I also like the fact that I can manage my music and photos without having to use itune software. I woud recommend this phone!
