I have a Blackberry 7100i. After 6 months the software crashed from no fault of my own and the only way to fix it is to buy a replacement. I would go with a Treo if I were you. My boss has had his for about 2 years with no problems, and it comes with a lot more software that the blackberry doesn't.

I am not sure what you mean by review. The below news article highlights the issues people are having with the handset and Vodafone UK.

In love with the blackberry series. I had the pear before I got the curve and have to say its great. The internet is speedy, great service, awesome messaging features, and very user friendly. I have to say the only downfall to most of the blackberry phones is the trackball can break and when that happens your shit out of luck for lack of a better term. Good luck and try to go through Verizon.

The BlackBerry® Curve 8330 smartphone delivers on the BlackBerry promise with no compromises. BlackBerry push technology is designed to deliver emails to your smartphone as they arrive so you read and respond to them. And its applications work together so you can email a web page to one of your contacts while you're browsing the web, or listen to music as you read and respond to your emails. In addition to the push technology reliability, the Curve also offers VZ Navigator, BroadbandAccess Connect and a 2 megapixel camera with flash. These powerful features round out the total package that the sleek and elegantly–designed Curve offers.
There for its a awesome phone.
Hope this helps.

Nevermind the awful amount of crashes….wanted an iphone but after an honest AT&T guy told me that he and his brother has experienced crashes, I never looked back. I had a BB b4 and I guess once you go BLACKBERRY you’ll never get back..lol!
