BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry is better to get?

What is the best Blackberry anyones opinion and made? The Curve 8530 or Curve 8900?

You can compare the characteristics of the two models here:

http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/devices/compare/product-attr-compare.jsp?products=1528&products=1786

Here's what I think of the issues:

8530 is better because:

  • CDMA including 3 G device
  • trackpad instead of trackball
  • got media keys on top
  • rubber all around
  • better hearing care

8900 is better because:

  • GSM/GPRS/EDGE device (works anywhere in the world)
  • form factor is more elegant
  • the camera is 3.2MPix instead of 2MPix
  • Bluetooth profiles that are no longer accepted
  • definition of the screen is 480 x 360 instead of tiny 320 x 240
  • the battery lasts longer 20%

  • BlackBerry 10 Beta BlackBerry signature problem (to get BBM channels)

    I hope this is the right place to post my question.

    I want to download BBM channels to my Z10.

    When I try to connect in the BlackBerry beta Zone, it is said that they can not validate my email?

    The only thing I can think is that my email has been associated to an older BlackBerry PIN, where I used BBM once or twice.

    Any advice would be great?

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Sim unconfigured 2 & cannot get the Bbm by Instant Messenger

    Because my phone got ran, I am currently using a Blackberry Curve 9320 in which I bought from a friend. I went to the Virgin Mobile.ca and activated my sim card and phone online, and then when I thought that he said, that it has been saved successfully, it says SIM NOT CONFIGURE 2

    I'm having the worst luck and am so lost without phone. I don't know what that means, but I Googled it and got many different answers. If someone who has experienced this before can let me know what they think, that would be greatly appreciated.

    Also when I go to the instant messaging, aol e-mail POP, but not Bbm. What I download BBM as soon as I get on the phone? I thought BBM was already on BlackBerry... ugh Confused and Sad without a phone.

    Hello

    If you receive this error message then the SIM card is not connected, or there is a fault with it. If customer services say they have linked the number but you are still having problems, then it is likely that a replacement SIM card will fix this for you. It could also be due to the phone being locked to the carrier of your friend.

    Now BBM maybe missing a few reasons:
    (1) it is hidden
    (2) it has been uninstalled
    (3) if it's a business device, he could have been disabled.

  • Icon of blackBerry Smartphones that I can't get rid of (9800)

    I play with some of the fearures and wanted to try the call barring function.

    Apparently rogers has locked this option off, sort of.

    And I mean sort of, as they made an ass job of it have.

    in any case, in the bar where the phone puts the icons for new e-mail, voicemail, etc., there is a shield with a scream of interrogation. For the life of me I can't understand how get rid of it.

    I tried to go back and redo tuning changes, but since I am unable to actually launch the first time, I can't cancel it or turn it off.

    So, I had an icon on my phone for the last 6 months that does nothing, and I can't remove.

    I have tried everything reboots to remove the battery to remove the sim card and the battery... etc.

    Any thoughts or ideas would be great.

    Thank you.

    This shield with exclamation point is either BlackBerry Protect, or MORE likely, a weather alert of a weather app you have installed.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry 8700 c not get internet

    Hello

    I hope someone here can help me.  I have a blackberry 8700 c that I bought at cingular/ATT now, a couple of years and 3 days ago, I lost internet coverage.  I spoke with technicians ATT & finally got referred to as BB technicians & nobody could solve my problem.  I have made at least 10 battery tire & did a hard reset, wiping clean all & starting over.  Nothing has worked.  My phone works, but does not sound & light is sporadic, jump for several hours & then back on.  I have been sent new books/registration to the service several times & ATT even took me off their program & restored me.  All to nothing does not.  Here is the message I get:

    With the ATT Navigator:

    Last update: finally got my internet back, but not thanks to support from AT & T.  Apparently, it was the deep, dark secrets while adding a new Tower & once they got that up & go that my internet is back.  Why they just could not have told me the truth & saved me all the stress of thinking my phone crashed is beyond me!

    Many thanks to everyone who gave me advice.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Yellow Pages - how to get back my blackberry browser

    * Hotspot Login

    * Yellow pages

    * Telstra business portal

    It USED to have

    * Hotspot Login

    HiOzBBerry42

    I spent all day until now talk to Telstra who weren't able to help me, they put me in support of the RIM. I just got on a conference call with RIM and Telstra.

    Apparently, Telstra did change the name of the browser to the Yellow Pages with mobile. yellow pages as home page. Telstra work with RIM to find how to change the name of the browser Internet browser. Phew... what a day.

    Now, we should just work if the change that Telstra has decided to do is also the cause of why my "BOLD" will pick up my house WI-FI, but does not connect to the to use when I go in the browser (as it usually don't do any problems before they changed the name).

    Hello everyone. I just got my BB Curve a few days ago and and very happy with it. I've been looking around for a nice big memory card but I have not found that any specs on the what 8330 may actually contain. Look forward to hearing everyone's thoughts. Thank you!

    Up to 32 GB, depending on your operating system installed.

    Read this: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB05461&sliceId=SAL_Pub...

  • BlackBerry smartphones, I've just downloaded the world Blackberry apps and I get a constant hourglass

    Since I downloaded the apps Blackberry world I was doing a constant hourglass. I tried to uninstall the program but and even after uninstalling, the hourglass stays on. Now my Blackberry 8330 is almost unusable. I do not receive E-mail now, it freezes constantly upward on me. Anyone know what I can do to restore it to where it was before the download?

    Thank you all for all your suggestions and ideas. Finally, I went on the site Web SprintPCS, my career and discovered that I had major updates that had not been updated. I did both in the order they came out and it fixed everything. Others that I lost everything in my calendar, everything works. No hourglass and everything seems to work a little faster. They were all the updates for my Blackberry Desktop Manager! Thank you all for all your help with my problem!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BBM not worked since getting new phone

    I bought my son a Blackberry Curve mid-August for her birthday

    Everything we did was reversed his sim to his Blackberry so it is on a monthly contract with Orange

    HE just told me that his BBM did not work from the first day to have the Blackberry, all his friends contacts just say waiting but never really connect

    I know that this is not related to the problems as his since we opened the phone (which was brand new)

    ive tried PC suite and google searches but cannot understand what is wrong

    Please can someone help in layman's terms, not jargon on an easy way to solve this problem

    Thank you very much

    You must ring in orange and pass your rate at one with the blackberry internet bolt on, as you need this option to use bbm etc hope this helps!

  • How can BlackBerry Smartphones GPS on 8310 I get the card?

    Can someone please tell me how to get the cards and use them on my 8310 as a gps travel card. I use very often and that you don't really want to pay for them.

    I saw a discussion on free google maps.

    Help, please

    Ash

    Hi and welcome to the forums!

    Google maps is a free application that uses the GPS and triangulation via cell towers. If your GPS is enabled it can be very accurate. If your gps does not find a satellite, Gmaps will be triangulate your position within 3,000 metres.

    The cards are excellent, provide traffic, both in turn. Satellite image shows as well.  Allows to search for the company and displays the phone number and address. You can click on the number to call.

    Again, it is free, so you can lower the load and try it.

    Here is the link: http://www.google.com/mobile/default/maps/index.html

    Let me know if this helps or if you need more help!
