Actually I really like the Blackberry Curve! Now to figure out how to get rid of my account right now and wait long enough to be considered a new client for this deal.. Or find the Curve somewhere for a good deal lol.

get it, your price would be $200 with a new contract from AT&T, you'll like the unlimited BBM with other people who have a blackberry.

I would go back to Verizon, a little more expensive but the coverage cant be beat. I have T-Mobile right now, the coverage is ok but I dont get reception around the place I work at all. I have the Blackberry Pearl which is awesome, so when I switch back to Verizon in August I will buy another Blackberry, probably one of the new ones coming out.

I've never liked verizon for all the crap they load on the phones :? If anything I'd go to Cingular. Not sure about Sprint honestly, heard lots of mixed comments about those guys

RodC: How is the Wing ricey? lol

Because it's an unnecessary aesthetic mod. Unless you regularly drive at 130mph, then it won't really generate any useful downforce.

Ouch. You didn't have your contacts backed up on T-mobile's database? That's a bummer, sorry to hear that.

I'm on T-mobile as well and currently own an HTC Shadow and have loved it for being a smartphone but I do have gripes about tmobile's shoddy reception in some areas. If you're thinking of going to another carrier, you may wanna hold on that for a few months because theres a rumor that T-mobile is releasing 16 new phones by August and they are finally rolling out with their 3G network.

Here are most of the rumored phones:

1. Nokia 5310

2. Nokia 5610

3. Shadow II

4. Nokia 2760

5. Nokia 1208

6. Nokia 6301

7. Shadow III

8. Samsung T339

9. Samsung T229

10. Blackberry Bold

11. Blackberry KickStart

12. Motorola W450

13. Motorola Rokr E8

I've been a Verizon customer for about five years. I've never had a problem with dropped calls or anything, and 90% of the time my phone has good reception (I even got reception in the middle of the forest when I was camping!).

I love Verizon, although I guess Cingular isn't too bad either. A lot of my friends have it, but a few that have switched tell me that Verizon is a little big better (that could just be the area I live in, though).

Good luck finding a new service provider and a new phone.

Of all the cellphone companies, only one company provides a signal inside my house. That's why I am with Verizon. I still don't get a signal in my bathroom, but it's better than nothing.

I would have to say going to the bathroom with the cellphone is a bit much. Unless you're playing a game to pass the time.

had Sprint for maybe 6yrs. their customer service, phones, plans and service were all sh*t (and still are)! i always had random charges on my bill about downloading 20 games. It was a pain in the a$$ to call them and wait about 15mins to talk to a human. Every single time i come home from work, the Sprint store is ALWAYS packed with people complaining. i used to be in there many times.

i switched to att this past march and got an iPhone. Probally the best phone ever made with many imitations and none can compare. the customer service and their service is amazing. those "bars" commercials are tru, ive NEVER lost service even when i went to mexico last month. Have yet to go under 3 bars actually. love it!
