Reviews of the RIM BlackBerry Curve 8320 - pale gold (T-Mobile)
-
CNET Review
The Good: The RIM BlackBerry 8320 offers integrated Wi-Fi and works with T-Mobile's HotSpot@Home service so you can make calls via Wi-Fi. The smartphone also features a nice, sleek design; a spacious QWERTY keyboard; a 2-megapixel camera; popular IM clients; and good call quality.
The Bad: The Curve's camera can't record videos, and there's no 3G support. The BlackBerry Web browser isn't quite as sophisticated as those on competing smartphones.
The Bottom Line: The RIM BlackBerry Curve (aka BlackBerry 8320) for T-Mobile is the best BlackBerry we've seen to date as it offers Wi-Fi, best-of-breed design, and excellent performance.

Review Summary: The Curve combines the best of the Pearl with the classic style of the past models to produce a near perfect solution for email on the fly - only set to be past by the newer RIM BlackBerry 8820 we thinks.
